In Gesprek
Welkom bij In Gesprek
Een plek om te landen, te ademen en weer in je kracht te komen.
Soms vraagt het leven je om even stil te staan. Om te voelen waar je bent, wat je nodig hebt en hoe je verder wilt. In Gesprek is een plek waar je tot rust kunt komen, in jezelf kunt landen en stap voor stap weer lichtheid en kracht kunt ervaren.
We gaan samen op ontdekking naar jouw kwaliteiten en mogelijkheden. Je leert herkennen wat jou belemmert om voluit te leven en hoe je ruimte kunt maken voor wie je in essentie bent. Door met deze thema’s te werken, ontstaat er meer balans, energie en vertrouwen — zodat het leven weer kan stromen.
Bij In Gesprek is er speciale aandacht voor hoogsensitiviteit en het innerlijke kind. Deze delen van jezelf dragen veel wijsheid en kracht in zich. Wanneer je ze leert te begrijpen en omarmen, kun je vanuit een diepere verbinding met jezelf leven en keuzes maken die écht bij je passen.
Herken je jezelf in één of meer van de volgende gevoelens of situaties?
-
Je vermoedt dat je hoogsensitief bent en wilt hier beter mee leren omgaan.
-
Je voelt dat je vastloopt of steeds in dezelfde patronen terechtkomt.
-
Je verlangt naar meer rust, energie en levenslust.
-
Je hebt het gevoel dat er meer in je zit, maar weet niet goed hoe dit tot uiting te brengen.
-
Je durft je talent nog niet volledig te laten zien.
-
Je ervaart regelmatig spanning, boosheid of vermoeidheid.
-
Je herkent signalen van stress of (beginnende) burn-out.
Met deze en andere persoonlijke thema’s ben je van harte welkom bij In Gesprek. Tijdens een eerste gesprek nemen we de tijd om jouw verhaal te horen. Van daaruit beginnen we samen aan een traject dat past bij jouw situatie, wensen en tempo.
Hieronder lees je een schrijven van een collega van mij en over twee ervaringen van mensen waarmee ik heb gewerkt.
‘Anja heeft de gave om diep te voelen en anderen te helpen hun kracht te vinden’

Living in the Netherlands as a British-immigrant, I have enjoyed all the delights and nuances that North-Holland has to offer and more. I have adapted well to Dutch culture and have embraced as much as I can. However, the expat lifestyle is one that is unstable and transient and when one is not firing on all cylinders, it can be unsettling and exhausting.
My lovely Dutch Bubble came crashing down in October 2018. My husband, of whom we followed to the Netherlands to be together more, was travelling more and more. We had recently bought and moved in to a beautiful old town house and I was starting to look to go back to work, after a year’s hiatus adjusting us and our children to our new world. My doctor, took bloods and discovered my thyroid was not performing as it should be and suggested this was due to stress and that her best advice was to refer me to a Psychologist. She believed me to be depressed and suggested this was due to being a “buitenlander”. Simultaneously, issues from my childhood were arising after many years of nothing. In a nutshell, I couldn’t cope much with life any more and felt mentally and physically fatigued.
I chatted with Anja, I disbelieved I was depressed and I didn’t feel stressed or sad. I was just struggling to move forward and was locked in a form of grief. Anja, was the first professional I have met that suggested we work on the roots of potential traumas in my life in a bid to heal and remove the chaos and noise that was affecting my day-to-day output and relationships. That by going back to these roots, we could heal me and get me back to my self. She didn’t write me a prescription for pharmaceutical pills and tell me to be on my way, or label me in a category of depression or expat-spouse boredom. She understands the human disposition, as a whole being and not a list of symptoms.
We began communication work in January 2019 and she coached me alongside this work to adopt more self-care and allow myself time to disconnect from stressors. We had sessions for approximately 3.5 months and although digging out experiences was initially very hard. Each week, I could feel my strength and emotional and mental clarity return.
I believe her work to be priceless and absolutely pivotal in adult mental and physical well-being. I feel like I have been on a personal journey of discovery and self-healing and now feel empowered to support and help other people using the tools she has given me. There will be times in my life that I need to go back to Anja, to help work through things that are too big for me alone. But right now, the work we have done has been golden.
I now have Anja work with my children once a week on their big emotions. Growing up as an immigrant in a foreign country is a wonderful experience, but it is not without its struggles at times for children. She has great insight and understanding of these wonderful little adults in the making.
I would highly recommend Anja for her Coaching Services to anyone that I meet that may be struggling with past or present issues and traumas of all levels.

My name is Shireen and I am a expat living in the Netherlands. I WAS lost….
When you have issues in your life that seem to repeat, you can’t escape situations that you’re in, and you have toxic people constantly in your life (even if you rid yourself of them, more of the same toxic people keep coming) then I challenge you to look inside yourself. This is how Anja has helped me.
Break the cycle of unhappiness and heartache. Find the root of your behaviors and decisions and start healing from what is causing the issues in your life. You won’t be able to change your surroundings and situations without doing some work on yourself. With Anja’s guidance through meditation I was able to find myself, heal and move forward.
The most powerful thing I have ever heard is, “The universe brings people together for a reason. You unconsciously choose people who, if you’re mentally unhealthy, will cause you pain and if you are healthy, will build you up.”
Through Anja’s teaching and guidance I have found new hope, new energy and the choices I make are good for myself and therefor is good for everyone else that surrounds me.
