My philosophy

Through use your voice, I pass on my knowledge and insights about voice to those who want to grow awareness and deepening in that respect. My approach is unconventional and has the individual at centre, not one particular method or technique. Every person is unique and therefore needs a personal attitude. I use my sensitivity to tune into that level. This way, my clients offer me just as much opportunities for learning and growth as I offer to them. Besides my knowledge about the voice, I work with Polyvagal Theory, Theory of Positive Disintegration, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) and Nonviolent Communication to put voice coaching in a broader context.

I like to create an environment where you don’t have to be afraid of making mistakes; where you can explore freely what your possibilities are and feel safe enough to leave your comfort zone. Group workshops and individual sessions are offered in Dutch as well as English. My logo depictures a dolphin, as the animal is an ancient symbol of communication, intelligence, freedom and playfulness. These are all relevant core values in my way of working.

Voice as expression of the self

Your authentic voice, which is able to reach and touch people, is most powerful when you’re connected to your intuition and your attention is in present moment. When your attention is consumed by thoughts or memories, you’re not present. Having your attention fully and intensely in the present moment means that you’re tuned in with all your senses, connected and responsive to what’s going on around you.
