Have you worked with Coach Vee before?
What People Are Saying About Coach Vee:
“Do you know that feeling: you have a fulfilling job and enough money to live comfortably, a soothing relationship, a cosy home, good health… Your children have left the nest and are perfectly capable of living their lives on their own, without you. And then you think: “So, that’s that!” Followed by: “But is that all there is? Couldn’t there have been more?”
Personally, I had the feeling that I was still carrying too much “baggage” around to really live life “fully” or not be afraid to jump. That’s why I wanted insight and help from coach and therapist [sic] Vee.
I have to admit I was a little nervous and also afraid I wouldn’t know the right things to say. But her very soothing demeanor and voice encouraged me to jump into the past.
That journey revealed multiple pieces of painful memories: my grandmother who sobbed uncontrollably because she was afraid to die, thinking it was too early, not having the impression that she (partly because of her controlling husband) had done everything she would have wanted to do in her life. The fear and bitterness in my mother’s eyes when she met her demise in the same way as her mum. My father who scorned me for being the only 10-year-old on the block who couldn’t swim of ride a bicycle yet! (At the same time, he was the only dad on the block who never made the effort of teaching these things to his child). My mother telling me “I wish you’d been a boy instead of a girl who likes to be pretty all the time, because pretty girls get their hearts broken all the time and are never genuinely loved”. My boyfriend who, when I hesitantly told him about my premonitory dreams and visions snapped back at me that “women like you should be put on the stake!”
These are just some of many memories that came to mind.
I was shocked by the pain, frustration, insecurities, inhibitions that are still firmly embedded in my being.
That’s when coach Vee decided to put them all-in an imaginary “backpack” [in a session of hypnotapping]. We worked towards a moment when I threw the backpack way far into the see, and in the moment that it hit the surface, it disintegrated into the salty water.
I felt a huge release, the impact was overwhelming. Tears were rolling over my cheeks, but these were tears of relief and gratitude.
In that moment I said my goodbyes to my grandmother and mother, promising them that I myself would take everything out of life there is to take. Really EVERYTHING!
Now, I feel the drive, but especially the gut and required self-confidence again, to start things or take on things that before I never would have even contemplated. I’m almost “bursting” with plans and energy! This genuinely feels like a fresh start, maybe even a rebirth! At age (almost) 50, can you imagine?
That is why I really recommend this to anyone who feels like something is “missing” in their lives or on the contrary that they are carrying too heavy a burden. To anyone who feels inhibited, suppressed or lost. And to anyone who feels sad, anxious or insecure…
Simply DO this! For yourself! Because Christmas is around the corner and this has certainly been the most beautiful gift I could have ever offered myself.”

“I was stuck in a situation where I was feeling unseen, unappreciated, unloved, unnoticed, totally taken for granted and very much undesired. When Vee came to the rescue, she first took the time to patiently and quietly listen to all my frustrations blurt out. After that, she handed me some small anchor points to quietly procure subtle changes in the dynamics of it all, hints on how I could learn to shift my focus on what’s possible when the energy runs out.
And now, after having faced a huge, unsurmountable wall for much too long, I can now see the road ahead of me. Will it be a very long one? For sure. Will it be bumpy? Most likely so. But I have Vee to guide me every step of the way, and I’m really grateful for that.”

“I feel very happy again and I can’t stop smiling. I have stopped crying and problems don’t feel like problems anymore but chances to make a change. People around me tell me I have changed and I look radiant. Instead of crying, now I smile, I sing and I feel like dancing. Thank you so much for your help, I am very happy I got to meet and know you. I am motivated to keep rebuilding myself and I couldn’t have done it without you.”

“Just like many people I sometimes struggle. Am I doing the right thing? Have I handled that particular situation the way I should have? Is it me?
You're trying to be a good person but sometimes life throws you a curve ball, that is bringing you out of balance. How I react to that, defines my self-image. You see, I'm quite the perfectionist. I like keeping control over my life. This includes all the people who are in my life. Is that healthy? Probably not. But having gone through a less than smooth childhood, it's only natural to fall back on certainties. To me that means control.
Most of the people in my life get that. But I'm too much of a thinker not to realize that my past should not define my present. That is what made me decide to go see Vee.
Am I now capable of completely letting go of control? No. But I'm trying. Thanks to Vee I now know that holding on too strongly can also equal loss. People need space. So do I. And especially the latter is what I'm getting better at all the time, thanks to Vee. Because while overthinking whether or not I'm doing the right thing, I sometimes forget that it's OK to put myself first. It's ok to set boundaries and express needs and feelings out loud. As long as the other person gets a fair chance to learn how to deal with this, not just you. As long as you are doing this together.
Vee helps you to turn the chaos in your head into clarity.
But you are the one doing the work.
With her as your guide.
Do you sometimes find yourself in situations, arguments or events that make you wonder how you keep ending up in those? Are you willing to realize that your behavior plays a role in that dynamic? If so, I advise you to go talk to Vee. Her approach makes you question certain patterns and, speaking for myself, put me on a path I should have started taking a very long time ago.”

“Hi Vee! Sending you an update since the hypno session. [IMS hypnotherapy embedded in one-on-one coaching program]
So… Let’s get straight to the point: I strongly recommend it to eeeeeveryone! I feel so much better, so much more me.
I remember our very first session. Merely 10 minutes in, you told me something you would repeat many times over: “please be a bit kinder to yourself”. Sounded easy enough, but turned out it wasn’t easy at all.
Now, since I went into hypnosis in your practice 10 days ago, I catch myself complimenting myself, sticking up for myself and most importantly: I am so much kinder to myself. Yes, there are still fallbacks, but oh boy, there are so much less of them.
I hope I’ll be able to continue to work with you for a long time to come, Vee. Thank you for helping me see the real, confident, strong person that I really am. Instead of the little girl I pushed myself to be.
xxx.”

“A while back I started a coaching program with Vee because I wanted to work on my lack of self-confidence.
In order to boost the one-on-one coaching sessions, Vee proposed a hypnotapping session. I had never heard of it, but since I am curious in nature I certainly wanted to give it a try. It turned out to be a very intense and at the same time very relaxed session. I have learned a great deal about myself.
I can finally say that I feel quite a lot more confident. I can be who I am, voice my opinions and be part of this world. I used to hide myself. But what a revelation this was. I can now reframe others’ opinions in a much healthier way.
People now keep telling me that I look radiant. They tell me I should be proud of what I’m accomplishing and that feels so incredibly good.
Vee is an incredible person. Open-minded is an understatement. Talking about difficult topics is business as usual with Vee and that is quite a relief.”

“As a single young woman I’ve always been someone who looked to others for happiness. I also tried to have some control over the people around me in order to secure my own happiness. Obviously it isn’t possible to control other people, let alone people who have just entered your life. Due to my insecurity around the person, the potential relationship and my own self, I kept pushing my boundaries and ignoring red flags because “nobody’s perfect”. Whenever I started overthinking these insecurities, I would get anxiety because I felt like I was losing all control.
I came to Vee with my anxiety problems and she helped me see the root of the situation and how I could start tackling the underlying, genuine problem. She handed me the required tools to learn how to let go of control and find happiness within myself, being content with who I am and not look to others for approval. I am learning to set firm boundaries and have them respected.
I’m sure I still have a long way to go on this new journey away from people-pleasing behavior, but I know Vee will be guiding me every step of the way to tackle challenges I don’t think I can handle on my own yet. It’s an interesting learning process that is life-changing.
To anyone struggling with a similar challenge, I highly recommend to reach out to Vee for guidance.”

“I highly recommend Vee's trauma informed program to anyone struggling with an abusive relationship, looking for the strength and courage to leave an abusive relationship, anyone who has left an abusive relationship but is still experiencing the effects of abuse, or anyone looking to gain more information and insight into what others experience in an abusive relationship. This is so much more than a journal of written exercises - it is packed with information and strategies that will help the reader to better understand themselves, release trauma, anger and despair, and ultimately live a better life. I especially liked the information on neurolinguistic programming on how simply changing the way we speak about our relationships and ex-partners affects the healing process, the somatic neuroplasticity exercise to release trauma (so effective!), the daily mood trackers, and the exercises based on the seven stages of grief.
The difficult topics associated with ending an abusive relationship that are so often overlooked, like shame, sadness, and longing to return to the way things were, are thoroughly explored within the pages of this journal. This helps the reader to feel supported and understand that they are not alone, many have walked in similar shoes, and there is hope for a brighter and better future, free of abuse.
By rereading their own writings, the reader will be able to monitor their progress and see how they are developing after ending the relationship. It will help the reader to step outside of their comfort zone and increase their self-confidence and assertiveness that was most likely lost within the abusive relationship.
We all need somewhere to turn when we realize that our relationship with the one we once loved is having toxic effects on us. This program can guide you through the steps you need to take to finalize your decision and get out, serve as an outlet for the many emotions that will arise upon your journey, and inspire you to overcome the obstacles associated with ending the relationship to move from victim mentality to thriving. The resources provided are backed by science and Vee has made sure to fill the pages with the inspiration you need to thrive."

"BRILLIANT! This program is absolutely delightful! If you haven’t read it yet, do it! This journal is YOUR ultimate guide if you’ve just come out of a toxic relationship, and would like to get actual insights, wisdom and help to not just get better but to fully transform into the true and happy person you’re supposed to be! Vee takes us on such an inspiring journey going back home to our true and best inner selves. This program is a real gem in that it can be both used as a journal to get through difficult times, but I’d even say it is a guide to help us live our best life! I love the nurturing vibe of the entire program. The entire process Vee came up with makes so much sense, as I’ve been lucky enough to have gone through so many of these phases myself! Yet I’ve learned so much, about abuse, about others, about our brains and ourselves and yes, about myself, as I read and used it! I had so many ah-ha moments and could relate to pretty much everything the author talked about! It’s also a truly honest program, that goes way beyond the “conventional” labels most writers put people in in order to explain human behavior. This program gives us real, genuine insights on all sides of all stories, and talks in detail about all perspectives all sorts of people have! She also gives us all fantastic tools to help deal with and overcome our own limited beliefs and behaviors! As Vee puts it, this program is full of tools that aim to “arm you with knowledge, so that you can weed out potential abusive people before things escalate”. And it’s so well-written too! You can tell how much the author truly cares about her readers. I personally felt like she was accompanying me every step of the way. I thoroughly enjoyed reading it and all of the exercises were both in-depth, extremely useful and even life-changing! You can tell Vee has overcome those obstacles herself, and she won’t let go of your hand throughout the entire journey. Her questions are from the heart and a true road map to becoming our beautiful, whole selves again! I highly recommend this journal to absolutely everyone who wants to discover more about themselves and of course, to everyone who’s just got over a difficult break-up, has been in a relationship with or knows a “narcissist” or just left an abusive relationship of any kind! It’s BRILLIANT."
