Life Coach for 'newcomers' in The Netherlands (e.g. students, expats)

Hi! My name is Vivianne. I have been living in Amsterdam for two years now and I do love this city! I'm originally Dutch and I have lived in several countries (different places in The Netherlands, Hong Kong, Peru). That feeling of entering a new city is amazing; all those new people, places and beautiful spots but it can also make you a bit insecure about your decisions. Did you choose the right studies or job? You moved for love but what's next? What about new friends? You're not alone, many people around you experience the same. Next to my own experiences, I work as Dutch teacher (Dutch as a second language) and therefore know how 'newcomers' experience their new life. I want to help people feeling happier and content with their decisions. I have a background in (international) marketing, languages and intercultural communication and due to this combination I have a depth intercultural understanding.

So, if you want to talk about...

- Your life in The Netherlands (e.g. studies, job)
- Your decisions (e.g. feelings, emotions regarding any subject)
- Your future plans (e.g. staying in The Netherlands, moving)

And want to feel...

- More confident in your studies / job
- Happier in your personal and social life
- More integrated in the Dutch culture

Without feeling a patient in need of an expensive psychologist/psychiatrist, feel free to contact me. We can have a short intake so you can tell me something about yourself and make a plan for further meetings.

If you're interested in Dutch lessons as well we could, of course, customize the sessions.

Do you have the skills but struggle to express your musical voice with clarity and confidence?
Or maybe you’ve been performing for years but want to take your artistry further — deeper, freer, more authentically you. That’s where I come in. I work as a musician, coach & creative mentor, helping performers connect the dots between their artistry, mindset, and professional life. As a violist and saxophonist with experience in solo, chamber, orchestral, classical, jazz, pop, and world music, I understand the many layers of being a musician today. It’s not just about practicing and performing — it’s also about shaping your identity, reaching your audience, and managing the behind-the-scenes work that keeps your career moving. 💡 In our sessions, we can explore whatever part of your musical journey needs support: * 🎻 Performance & Interpretation – confidence, expression, storytelling through sound
 * 🎶 Chamber & Ensemble Skills – communication, listening, blending
 * 🌍 Artistic Identity – shaping your unique voice and presence as a musician
 * 💡 Mindset & Stage Presence – overcoming self-doubt, nerves, or creative blocks
 * 📲 Practical Support – planning projects, creating content for socials, organizing tools, and simple automations to make your musical life run smoother
 You don’t have to do this alone. Whether you’re a student, an emerging artist, or already established, we’ll work with what’s inside you — your instincts, your strengths, your goals. Sessions can be a one-time deep dive or part of a longer creative journey together. 👉 Think of it as having a coach, mentor, and creative ally for both your music and your career.

✅ OVERCOME BLOCKAGES, CHANGE MANAGEMENT, PRAGMATIC/BEHAVIORAL PSYCHOLOGY & PERSONAL DEVELOPMENT (BY A PSYCHOPRACTITIONER)
➤Aim of these sessions? Halfway between psychoanalysis on the one hand and American-style coaching on the other, with proposals that will be made to you according to your problem and that will have to be implemented, it will be advisable to proceed as follows: understand the mechanisms of thought & induced emotion, linked to given everyday situations and which involve blockages then act concretely through pragmatic techniques adapted to your problem, and which will be quickly proposed to you to regain power over your life thanks to the methodologies & practices of behavioral coaching. ➤This is why, choosing the appropriate mediator to carry out a quality work and help oneself to advance / overcome certain mechanisms will induce the awareness necessary for this decided change. This will then allow to register in a new dynamic in the personal & professional fields. ➤To lead this change, achieve its aspirations, improve its quality of life and develop the functioning of its cognitive, emotional or behavioral sphere, a cohort of very concrete tools and concepts are at our disposal, and which involve deepening the self-exploration. This involves questioning yourself, analyzing, taking a distance, and understanding the issues / points causing suffering, before finally freeing yourself from it. ➤Examples of topics / issues regularly addressed and which are regularly supported by a dedicated specialist coach, adapted to your plan: • Self-confidence, self-esteem and assertiveness, shyness, decision-making, assertiveness, personal development • Reduce suffering (phobia, stress, anguish, anxiety, negative thoughts, panic, depression) and modify behaviors that are detrimental to well-being (post-traumatic stress, injuries, addictions), to better manage emotions & regain life. appeasement • Concentration, procrastination, organization, professional efficiency, time management •Professional/personal relationships (family, romantic, friendly, emotional, etc.) & social: from communication difficulties generating pain & frustration to the fluidity of relationships • Professional life: tensions, pressures & conflicts, (Re) professional orientation (CV, cover letter, job interview), competitions and exams, support in a business project, teamwork ➤Each point is the subject of techniques adapted to your situation, which you will probably never have put into practice...and which have proven their worth on the people you support. ➤Thus, although involving self-exploration, coaching remains concrete in its application and bears fruit from the first sessions, since it makes people autonomous, and not dependent. ➤You will understand, specializing in life support and personal & professional projects, it is our proven skills and the positive feedback from all the people previously supported that makes us able to support you, by catalyzing the keys to your success, through a methodology and pragmatic tools, adapted to your situation. ➤And if cookie-cutter advice is not offered, that you will never be led but guided without judgment, in a process of permanent / interactive co-construction ... it is because we believe that it It is first important to analyze together, to become aware, to study jointly, to deepen, to decode your blockages and your initial problem in order to clarify your aspirations. ➤Influenced by cognitive & behavioral therapies, by Anglo-Saxon coaching instruments and the European methodology of applied psychotherapy, the approach therefore aims to seek links between current difficulties and past experiences, including repressed and unresolved conflicts and to confront difficulties which may be partially linked to inappropriate thoughts or behaviors learned / adopted often in spite of oneself. ➤ So, how does a session take place? After having identified together a problem, blockages and objectives, it is a question of analyzing them together then proposing a series of suggestions/reflections/pragmatic actions. Concretely, a session = a reflection + solutions. From the second session, 98% of our coaches say they felt a clear difference that influenced their daily lives* (2022 study). ➤ THERAPIST - COACH - PSYCHOPRACTITIONER - PSYCHOANALYST - CONSULTANT Trained at Grande Ecole post-preparatory classes & Ivy League University in the United States, our consultant teacher trainer has specialized and worked for more than 16 years, in Europe and North America, in the field, in renowned international public and private establishments, regularly speaking in forums and conferences, and also offering personalized INDIVIDUAL support, with pedagogy and meticulous methodology as the watchwords. ➤ PLACE, TIMETABLE, PRICES ✓ Locations: Geneva-Lausanne-Fribourg-Zurich-Neuchâtel-Lugano-Montreux-Basel-Neuchâtel-Bern-Lucerne-Brussels-Luxembourg-Paris-Lyon.
