She is an exceptional listener who asks thoughtful, insightful questions to truly understand her client before offering advice. Her approach is always positive and open-minded, which made me feel safe, seen, and supported in every conversation.

Beyond her empathy, Vanessa is incredibly perceptive, patient, and encouraging. She has a natural ability to help you gain clarity, reframe challenges, and see possibilities you couldn’t see before. Whether you’re facing personal difficulties or navigating work-related issues, Vanessa has a remarkable way of guiding you forward with confidence and compassion. She is truly a gift as a mentor.

me with many areas of my life. Vanessa has created a calm and comfortable environment, I felt at ease and empowered to be myself. She helped me to calm down and settle into the sessions even when I came running from a meeting and my brain was not focussed. Due to my ADHD I tend to talk a lot and often digress from the subject. Vanessa’s patience and gentle ways to bring me back to focus on the subject has been very helpful and most certainly contributed to the success of our sessions. When I doubted whether I made the right decision to pivot and start a new profession and whether I can succeed, Vanessa listened to my back-and-forth reasoning. I felt heard and understood. Her insightful questions helped me to remember my motivation and prioritise my actions step by step so I can be successful in my transition. Between sessions I made sure I was completing my actions, not only for myself but also that I can share and celebrate my successes with Vanessa. One of my main goals has always been to work on my very unhealthy eating habits. Vanessa’s questions helped me to remember previous successful solutions, and with her help I came up with a few steps action plan to get back on track even if I momentarily fall back to old habits. I am very grateful to Vanessa for her help during these coaching sessions. I can see the major progress I have made in my life due to these sessions. Thank you very much Vanessa!”

coaching sessions that have taken place. The coaching has has a lot of great impacts on my thoughts, feelings and overall life. Vanessa has been such a professional, making me feel very comfortable being able to talk about anything. That has led me to identifying goals I wasn't really aware of before, and also establishing them in a clear way to what I want to achieve. I think Vanessa has a great feeling for knowing when I talk for long times for my own reflection, but also knowing when I talk in circles and being able to make me reflect on what's important. In that way, I've reached some interesting insights for knowing myself in my strengths and opportunities going forward. I believe Vanessa is great at feeling people, as I feel she adapted to my way of being. This is a really important attribute, letting me feel free and expressing myself as I feel for. She also had me check for my level of effort for the coming week, also making the week clear of goals going forward, as well as recapping the past week of my progression. Overall, I would surely recommend Vanessa as she's been a great coach for me. A wonderful coach, and an even better human-being. Grateful!”

created a supportive environment from the very start. You helped establish a clear, client-driven goal and ensured that our work stayed aligned with what mattered most to me. Your ability to listen actively and ask thoughtful, open-ended questions encouraged deeper reflection and helped me uncover insights I might not have reached on my own. I also valued how you highlighted my strengths throughout the process, empowering me to build on what I already do well. You maintained a nonjudgmental space that made it easy to be open and honest. At the same time, you kept me focused and committed to the actions we identified, which made the coaching both purposeful and productive. Thank you for your guidance, support, and professionalism. Your coaching has made a meaningful difference.”

feel like I can talk about anything without judgement. Our sessions have given my many more opportunities to reflect on what I want and how to get there, and I have taken far more action towards my goals between sessions than I would have done otherwise.
