Do you long for honest, intimate and compassionate connections— with yourself and other?

Welcome!
I create space for our shared humanness — for pain, longings, and power.


I work with individuals, groups and couples.

Together, we listen to what usually stays unspoken.

We learn to meet shame, fear, and anger with care — so they can transform into deeper connection, compassion, and self-trust.


I teach and work with Nonviolent Communication, The Voice (voiceliberation) & Body and Conscious Sexuality​ (Tantra).

  • How to connect through conflict

  • How to express and hear a ‘NO’

  • The power of Empathy to dissolve anger, pain, fear and hurt

  • How to hear the essence of what other people say, no matter how they express it

  • And more!

Connecting with Children-
for parents, teachers and anyone who shares time with children

Nonviolent Communication is a simple, powerful and practical tool that helps us to see clearly what blocks our communication and connection, and what we can do differently to manifest and live our deepest values with children.
NVC shows us ways to create sustainable connection and cooperation based on intrinsic motivation from both sides

Together with Connecting2Life, I offer 4x a year a 10–11 session weekly online course designed for parents, teachers, coaches, therapists, and anyone who shares time with children.
 

  • Why is communication with children so difficult sometimes?

  • Would you like to transform power struggles into connection?

  • Turn resistance into mutual understanding?

  • Change anger to a flow of love, care and harmony?

 

We will focus on the following skills:
 

 

  • How to transform anger into connection from both sides

  • How to transform conflict into dialogues with understanding and connection

  • Empathic listening- how to hear what your children are REALLY trying to say, no matter how they express it

  • And much more…

Offer

I create a sacred space of presence, empathy and listening, where all of you is welcome, your pain and your power. A space where you can connect to your essence, where your truth, inner strength and creativity are sourced.

 

I can support when:

  • You feel confused, depressed, anger, frustration, fear, hurt and sadness.
     

  • You have a sense that fear, guilt and shame are driving you and you want to make chooses and take action from your deep desires and your inner wisdom. 
     

  • You experience challenges in communication in certain situations.
     

  • You experiencing unresolved inner or outer conflicts.

I love travelling with you over a period of time, to support you in embodying new habits,  manifest your dreams and built residence and capacity to be and move through life.

More info

  • Do you face (repeating) conflicts?

  • Emotional distance?

  • Loss of sexual attraction? 

  • Recurring patterns that seem impossible to break? 

  • Pain from the past that you keep dragging around?

  • Communication difficulties?

It can be so painful and lonely when we experience  distance with the ones we love.

Conflict is often a signal that there's something profoundly important wanting to be heard, seen and understood. Within this challenge lies the potential for deeper connection and healing.

I love to support you on that journey!

More info​

Are you done with playing small? Are you ready for the next step? Do you want to get to know yourself even deeper, your sexuality, your power and share your truth and full-self with the world?

​​

Your sexuality is part of you. It’s not only a part of you, it's where so much power, passion and pleasure resides.


Getting to know our unique sexual & life energy and feeling safe to express her is like falling back into the core of who you are.

You are so welcome!

I offer a group program for women, to connect to your own unique (sexual) life-current.
You can join the live course in The Netherlands or the online course.

Free Discovery Call

During this 20 min free exploration we will take time to look into the themes that are alive for you and the challenges you are currently facing or would like to work with.
 

Together, we explore whether a 1-on-1 or a couple trajectory would be supportive for you at this moment in your life, and whether it feels like a mutual match.

 

There is no need to prepare anything in advance.

Nonvolent Communication

NVC is a simple yet profound tool to create connection with both ourselves and others on a deeply human level. 

 

It is not about avoiding conflicts or suppressing emotions but rather about handling them in a compassionate way. It enables people to connect on a deeper level, fostering empathy and understanding among individuals, which can lead to more honest and fulfilling relationships, both personally and professionally.

In the end communication isn't just about the words we use; it's about the energy we carry behind our words and intentions. It's our ability to see the needs of the other and our own needs as beautiful and allowing the innate joy of contributing to each other's well-being come forth.

Conscious Sexuality

Sexuality is about so much more than most of us learned in our upbringing. It is a potent energy, based at our pelvis, and a source of love, creativity, pleasure and aliveness.

We might carry shame, pain and (hidden)longings around sexuality that block us from letting life energy move trough us and live life fully.

I give both practical tools how to work with sexual energy in a couple and with yourself and I support you to find your unique sexual expression and longings.

The body & The voice

I feel passionate to re-sensitise and listen to the innate wisdom of the body. In my sessions I listen to the words, the energy behind the words and the body.

So much unresolved pain get stored int he body. I find that involving the body actively can open-up blocked energy which can feel tremendously freeing.

 

The voice is part of the body and such a beautiful instrument to express ourselves. It can be with words but also with sound. 

To bring what we carry inside to the outside, to bring movement to what is stagnant, this experience can be so healing and freeing.
If you are interested in a voice liberation session you can write me.
