Coaching

Although therapy and coaching can deal with overlapping topics, coaching trajectories are typically  more solution-oriented, and focused on achieving a result like learning a skill, reaching an insight, or unpacking barriers towards change. In coaching, I can support you as you formulate goals that fit you and find ways to make sustainable changes in your life. 

What can we do in coaching sessions?

❦ create a confidential, gentle, non-judgmental space for expressing and processing feelings

❦ build your own toolkit for emotional regulation and grounding

❦ learn somatic and cognitive strategies for working with fear and procrastination

❦ deepen your understanding of how systemic oppression affects your wellbeing

❦ deconstruct the capitalist myths about self-worth and productivity

❦ identify what needs to be changed and what can be changed

❦ explore barriers and ambivalence around change

❦ imagine what it would feel like for you to thrive

❦ dream up what your ideal environment would look like

❦ envision what kind of community you want around you

❦ practice relational and conflict resolution skills for community building

Logistics

Individual coaching sessions typically last between 55 and 60 minutes. Longer prorated sessions are available, if desired. My working hours are Monday to Friday 9:00 to 17:00 CET (Central European Time). My working languages are English and Russian. We can meet online, or alternatively, I also offer coaching sessions in nature in the park Oog in Al in Utrecht.

Coaching sessions are available both long-term and short-term. In long-term work we will use events from your everyday life as material to gain insights, practice skills and make changes. In a short-term coaching trajectory we will focus on one problem or goal for 6-8 sessions.
