Sharing better emotional management and stress resiliency techniques is my passion.

I've been calling the Netherlands 'home' since coming from Canada in 1993. In 2006 it was clear that my inability to cope with stress was taking its toll. Some rather serious heart health issues had developed and this motivated me to pursue courses for developing better skills in dealing with stress.

Neuro-Linguistic Programming (NLP) taught me new, supportive ways to communicate with myself and with others. Then followed a Stress Counselor training. However, I was too late to prevent breast cancer, which has changed my life forever. I discovered my passion - teaching emotional self-regulation techniques. In 2009 I completed the Institute of HeartMath's licensed provider training - this after successfully using their program to really get my stress reactions under control. Currently, I’m furthering my skills in (self) empathetic communication, a much needed skill, especially for dealing with the intricacies of stress in the workplace.

Unsupportive emotions drain energy. The techniques I use show you how to plug your emotional energy leaks and recharge your batteries. By (re)connecting with your heart’s potential you change your own potential, literally and figuratively. The heart is the focus.

In 1 on 1 or group sessions, you'll improve the hardwiring and thus the communication between your heart and brain. Better communication = improved creativity, thinking, and solution orientated skills. Just think what you could do with more energy. Achieving a balanced, harmonious, and vital life is within your power.

We all have the ability to take control of our life, our emotions, and our stress. We only need to know how! To find out more about reconnecting to your heart please contact me. A change of heart really does change everything.
