As a mother of three children, two sons and a daughter, the benefits of mindfulness and meditation became very clear to me a long time before it became a professional practice.

 

My name is Elly, I was born in the Netherlands where I was trained to be a nurse in a nursing home and proceeded to work in a rehabilitation centre for roughly eight years.

 

In 2013, I obtained my counselling and coaching certification and consequently received the qualification to specialise in the counselling and coaching of children the following year. In 2019, I followed the Mindfulness Based Stress Reduction training (MBSR) provided by Eline Snel, followed by MBSR for children and adolescents. This was complemented by eight weeks of practical experience delivering mindfulness courses in schools.

Since opening my practice in July of 2020, my counselling services given in English, Dutch, German and Luxembourgish have helped children and adults get through stressful challenges by questioning negative thoughts and recognising the source of specific behaviours and emotional patterns. With the right tools and creative, personalised approach, I wish to help you embrace life’s challenges with confidence and a renewed sense of purpose.
