Building a sound relationship house
I believe in the (healing) power of Love. That is why it is my mission to help as many couples and individuals as possible improving their romantic relationships. I offer couples therapy based on the principles of (re)building sound relationships, creating shared meaning, intimacy and renewed friendship between partners. During our sessions we’ll explore every corner of your relationship and start (re)building it layer by layer. Our aim is your relationship 2.0 where you can feel loved, seen, heard and overall happy again.
Discover how you connect emotionally
Maybe you’ve felt less connected to your partner lately and you feel you’ve lost each other a long the way. And because of that, you both feel lonely. You do not want to be each others house mates only or the practical managers of your family life. No, you long to be lovers and best friends again! A solid team of two, able to deal with life’s challenges and to celebrate the beauty and gift of a life together.
You would love to experience more satisfaction, more peace, more positivity, more fun, more sex and basically more love in your relationship. Because that is when you’re the happiest. But you’re not quite sure hów to get there and it seems that you and your partner keep having the same sort of arguments over and over again. And that’s keeping you stuck in a negative kind of dance. Going round and round. And because of this you’re frustrated and scared.
Can relationship therapy save a relationship?
When you still love each other but it feels like something has gone missing, you may be in despair. But there is no need to! Because couples who’ve been together for some years, often experience the same. Still, feeling a bit empty inside or unsatisfied, is a clear sign that your relationship is sliding downhill. You can use these red flags to change the direction your relationship seems to be going, and start turning things around. This is possible! Seeking the help from a relationship therapist will help you learn how to change the direction of your relationship. You don’t have to figure it all out by yourself…
How can I strengthen my relationship?
A good question and one I can definitely help you with. First we’ll schedule an intake with both of you present. We’ll explore what is needed for you, and I will design a personal program for you so that you can reach your shared goals and needs. From there on, we’ll meet on a regular basis and work together on your program. We’ll evaluate your progress regulary as we go along. At home you’ll continue your work with special designed ‘home assignments’. This work method will help you improve and strengthen your relationship.
If you prefer to work on your relationship or your patterns, triggers, fears, hopes etc. without your partner present; don’t hesitate to contact me. 1 on 1 coaching is always possible and highly effective too.
Before you contact me
I work best with open minded and curious couples/individuals, who understand that it’ll take time and effort to become a more efficient partner. Relationship coaching works best if you have more goals for yourself than for your partner (yes, read that again!).
Ready to invest in a happy future together?
We start with a 45-minute intake session. This is an opportunity for us to get to know each other and to discuss in more depth the intake questionnaire you completed beforehand. During this conversation, we’ll explore your relationship challenges, goals, and expectations. It’s also a chance for all of us to determine whether my approach is a good fit for what you need.
If we decide to move forward together, we’ll begin with a package of three sessions. These sessions are scheduled in advance to create continuity and maintain momentum throughout the process. Lasting change within a relationship often requires more than a single productive conversation. Working together over a series of sessions allows us to build on the insights, discoveries, and progress made along the way.
After each session, you’ll receive an exercise to work on at home. The combination of coaching sessions and practical exercises helps create meaningful movement and growth in the process.
After the first three sessions, we’ll evaluate your progress together and determine whether a second set of three sessions would be beneficial. After six sessions, you may choose to continue with single sessions as needed.
The investment for the intake session is €80, excluding VAT. A package of three sessions costs €560, including VAT, and is invoiced in advance. If we decide not to continue after the intake session, a one-time fee of €80 will apply.
A brief introductory phone call is also available. During this call, I’ll explain my approach in a few minutes, and you can share a little about your situation. This call is complimentary.
Individual clients (without a partner joining the sessions) the session (60 min) rate is: 160,- incl. 21% VAT.
Relationship counseling, relationship coaching, relationship therapy is not covered by health insurance.
Tip: some employers are willing to take care of (part of the) relationship therapy costs (especially when your home situation influences your work). You can ask your company about their company policy.
