Coach in Personal and Professional Development

Louise Hoekstra

takE charge, make a change

Sometimes you need help to organize your mind and get you going.

Whether you want to make a change in your life, or if you need help to figure out what it is you really want, coaching is a powerful method to support you in unlocking your potential and optimize your performance.

If you are ready to take charge and make a change, you have come to the right address.

Why Coaching?

Through coaching you will become more aware of who you are, what is blocking you, what you are capable of and what you need to do to make the change that you are after.

Some examples of topics that we may work on are: 

♦ 

You are not (completely) happy with what you are doing, you want to figure out what really makes you tick

♦ 

You did everything that made your environment proud, but find that you are not happy

♦ 

You want to break through some patterns that you seem to have in your life

♦ 

You want to regain your confidence or overcome insecurities

♦ 

You want to be more effective in personal interactions

♦ 

You are looking to make a transition in your career

♦ 

You want to reset your work-life balance

♦ 

You want to become a better leader

♦ 

How it works

 Being ready for coaching means that you are willing to change, to open up and to invest time in your personal development. 

In our session(s) we will zoom into what is currently occupying your mind. We clarify your objectives: what would you like to achieve in our session(s)? And what is currently blocking you? While responding to my coaching-questions, we will gain insights in your feelings, your behaviors, your patterns and your personal values. 

By helping you to listen to your feelings, you will find that you can access your desires and dreams. You will become aware of the choices you can make and feel empowered to work through obstacles. We will find your definition of success, design relevant actions and structurally work towards reaching your goal(s).

Together we will find (and open) that window of opportunity and possibility.

About Louise

After finishing my MSc in Psychology, I worked in various senior commercial management roles in Sales, Product Development and Organizational Change. In these corporate roles, I always had a profound interest in human behavior, interpersonal interactions, optimal performance and personal development. Therefore, I took the Coach Training at the MMS Worldwide Institute.

Next to working in corporate environments today, I also work as a certified personal coach. It is my passion to support professionals who want to make a change in their personal and/or professional development. Coming from a corporate background myself, I can relate to the challenges you may encounter and help you to establish the change and transformation that you are looking for. 

I am a good listener, have a sharp intuition and a curious mind. My style is kind and thorough, with a sense of humor. For me it is most rewarding to be able to support others in reaching their personal and professional goals and truly make that change that they are after.

I coach in both Dutch and English. Coaching sessions can take place face to face or by using Zoom/Skype. 

 

Testimonials

We have captured some of my biggest challenges in my personal development, whereby Louise listened actively, asked questions, summarized and was able to pull out my own answers that were inside of me. Hereby she gave me my own space, whereby she steered the sessions with questions that were right at heart. At the end of the coaching sessions, I walked out with concrete next steps and tools that help me in practicing the things discussed. 

She understands the human factor as well as the business context, making the sessions very effective to me. The periodic coaching sessions resulted in enriched personal development and feeling more grounded in my personal as well in my business life. Not only has Louise made a tremendous impact on my personal development, also she is a role model to me.

Sanne Amber - Manager Cyber Security

Louise is a terrific and highly effective coach. Within the first session she was able to uncover my personal priorities and provide me with the necessary tools to make the right choices in my career. Louise is very good at getting to the core by sticking to the process and asking the right questions. The method she uses is clear and I enjoyed our sessions very much. I would highly recommend her as a coach.

Eveline - Quality Assurance and Regulatory Affairs Manager

I started my coaching process with Louise in quite a challenging time of my life, and she has been a great support for my personal development and my motivation. I could not believe it at first, but after months of feeling stuck, within a couple of sessions Louise was able to help me get absolute clarity on my direction and objectives. At the end of every session I felt extremely energized, motivated, and ready to take on life! Being coached by Louise has had very deep and lasting effects on me and I’ve thoroughly enjoyed the whole process as she is clearly so passionate about supporting people in their development and this passion transpired in all of our meetings. She is able to create a safe space for the coachee and to pinpoint exactly what is going on by asking the right questions. Moreover, she always made sure I could walk out of my session with practical, actionable tools that I could implement in my daily life to get closer to my objectives. 

Louise is a very talented and passionate coach and I’d highly recommend her to anyone looking to take steps further in their personal development.
