When we work face to face the coaching takes place in a private room at Thuis aan de Amstel in Amsterdam, or we can go for a walk along the Amstel river.

Since 2010 I have extensive experience in coaching online via Google Meet, Microsoft Teams and Zoom.

The intake takes a maximum of 1 hour. A coaching session lasts for 1 to 1.5 hours. We always plan 1.5 hours.

Private rate individual coaching: €150 incl. BTW
Business rate individual coaching: €275 ex. BTW
Relationship coaching: €200 ex. BTW

If we don’t continue the coaching after the intake, the intake is free of charge.

Together we decide the frequency of the sessions. Often there are 2 to 3 weeks between each session.

Throughout my career I have been guiding people from diverse cultural backgrounds. I did several accredited coaching educations, and I am a registered and accredited Senior Practitioner Coach at the NOBCO/EMCC. For a full overview of my experience and educations, I refer you to my LinkedIn profile.

The people I work with describe my style as open and warm. I offer them containment, structure and simple practical tools to work with. I am perceived as calm, challenging, charismatic, clear, concrete, honest, knowledgeable and very open minded.

We always start a trajectory with an intake to get to know each other and set a goal for the coaching. Every coaching session itself builds up in a structured 5-step approach.
