While therapy often looks backward to heal, and workshops provide generic "how-to" steps, our work is future-focused and deeply bespoke. As a Courage-Builder, I don’t follow a manual. I use a combination of NLP, cognitive behavioral techniques, and my own experience to help you navigate real-world challenges in real-time.

Beyond the One-Size-Fits-All Approach
My work is anchored by three non-negotiables: Radical Authenticity, Empowered Autonomy, and Compassionate Accountability. However, I do not believe in a single "method" or a rigid, linear path. Every individual is a unique landscape, and my role is to adapt my expertise to yours.
I serve as a strategic guide, curating a bespoke path for our partnership by integrating diverse disciplines:
Cognitive Behavioral Approaches: To rewire the thought patterns that reinforce "the machine" mindset.
Neuro-Linguistic Programming (NLP): To align your internal dialogue with your external ambitions.
Systemic Coaching: To navigate the complex environments you operate in, both personal and professional.
Somatic Awareness & Mindfulness: To reconnect your strategic mind with your body’s innate wisdom.
Positive Psychology: To transition from "fixing" problems to cultivating high-level human flourishing.

Yes. I am a Belgian native living in Italy, and I am happy to conduct our sessions in French or Dutch, depending on where you feel most authentic and comfortable.

I am not a good fit for anyone looking for a 'magic pill' or a consultant to tell them exactly what to do. I’m also not a fit for those who aren't ready to be radically honest with themselves. My coaching requires a high level of personal responsibility. If you’re looking for someone to simply validate your current habits rather than challenge them, I’m probably not the right coach for you.

I separate your behavior from your identity. My role is to be a mirror, not a judge. When I see an inconsistency between what you say you want and what you are doing, I will point it out with curiosity rather than criticism. I’ll ask: 'I noticed this pattern; does it serve the person you are becoming?' We stay focused on your goals, not your 'goodness' as a person.
-
We don’t just change your 'to-do list'; we work on your 'to-be' list. Lasting change happens at the identity level. We focus on building small, sustainable systems and shifting your underlying beliefs. By the time we finish working together, you won't just be doing things differently—you will be viewing the world differently. I also provide a 'sustainability plan' in our final session to ensure you have the tools to coach yourself moving forward.

Emotional breakthroughs are often where the real work happens. If you get triggered, we stop, breathe, and create space for that emotion. We don’t rush past it. My job is to hold a 'sturdy container' for you—meaning I stay calm and present so you feel safe to explore those feelings. However, if we hit a trauma that requires clinical therapy, I will be honest with you about that so we can get you the right support.

In my eyes, transformation cannot be rushed. In the corporate world, we are used to 30 or 60-minute "slots" that feel transactional. A 70-minute session allows us to move past the surface-level "status update" and dive into the deeper work, ensuring you leave with clarity rather than just a to-do list.
-
I believe that a rigid "session pack" Rarely honors the organic nature of human growth. To maintain radical authenticity in our work, I offer a modular approach where you determine the pace and frequency of our sessions—whether you require the momentum of weekly meetings or the reflective space of a monthly dialogue.
Investment: €60 per 70-minute session.
