ESSENCE >> coaching

Shaping your life in harmony with your true nature, rather than relying on conditioned patterns.

coming home

It is possible to rediscover your original self. So that creativity can flow freely and you can use your unique talents to live a life that is in tune with your own nature. Becoming aware of who you really are brings peace and autonomy. But your truest self has often learnt to hide behind layers of conformity. Condemned to a neglected existence within your inner world.

To change your reality, you need a different inner attitude, not a change in your behaviour. This requires tuning into your own frequency, and the courage to embody it.

the closer you come to knowing that you
alone create the world of your experience,
the more vital it becomes for you to discover
just who is doing the creating

Eric Micha’el Leventhal

unconscious obstacles

The times we live in demand more of our personal development. In a changing world full of distractions and unrest, the importance of aligning ourselves with our inner landscape is growing. For the self-image we hold is often based on cultural conditioning, other people's opinions, and incorrect conclusions we have drawn from experiences in the outside world. And we are so much more than that.

We often fail to realise that what we experience is also shaped by our own thoughts, which are based on hidden assumptions. Research in quantum physics has shown that the reality we experience in and around us is partly determined by the person experiencing that reality. But how do you become aware of this inner "filter" that colors your experiences? And how do you shape your life from a deeper connection with your true nature?

inner guidance

Explore how your inner world is connected to what you manifest in the outside world. The clarity this brings can sometimes be a challenge, but is ultimately liberating. My counselling aims to shed light on aspects that have remained in the shadows, so that you can gain insight into deeper motivations and resources. I support you with tools that help you explore your inner world and bring to light what lies within. Because by becoming more aware of what is going on inside you, you can align your actions more closely with your deepest truth.

Inner development gives you the strength to honour who you are, and to express that with a warm heart and a clear head. This paves the way for a different future. Liberate your authenticity and anchor it in the world. I'd be happy to support you with that.

Getting closer to who you are at the deepest level. read on Felice offers you a loving, and professional helping hand, shares her wealth of knowledge and stays attuned. It is not a question of doing what she says, she helps to clarify. Sometimes it becomes painfully clear, but that's how it works with Growing.

Xavier van Leeuwe, ceo

Felice is one of my 'special forces' when it comes to coaching me as a husband, father and business executive. Alert as a warrior in enemy territory, clear as a glass of water, she guides people on a wonderful and impactful journey inwards. read on In every session I feel I am looking in the clearest possible mirror. It's like taking a personal elevator twenty stories down, to that special place where the really important things in your life are blossoming. In her guidance she has shown me great compassion and the highest degree of wisdom. I initially feared the Tarot cards method might be irrational, yet it is practical and offers meaningful guidance.

Marian Mudder, author and therapist

Through her intelligence and integrity, Felice is able to make complex problems transparent. read on A coaching session with her gains an added dimension because of the insight it provides into unconscious motives and desires. Particularly those interested in personal development have come to the right place, because she shows the way to the path that at that moment in time is the right one.

Doris Gottlieb, organizational consultant
For the past five years I have used the coaching services of Felice as a way to build insight into dynamics that play out in my work and private life. They provide me with invaluable insights and support through moments of great challenge and moments of great opportunity. read on It is as if I have access to a deeper layer of understanding by looking at the year through the Tarot and I know I have made better decisions and had a clearer picture about choices I make by having the session. Felice is a wonderful guide and consultant. She is highly empathic and the way that she guides the sessions is gentle and powerful. I leave with clarity, good advice and inspiration as the session resonates within me. Throughout the year, I find that phrases or instructions that have been given will come to me at unexpected moments offering great guidance. I can highly recommend working with Felice and working with the Tarot in the way that she does. The extra dimension it has added to my life and work have been deeply valuable.

Lien De Coster, writer and sitout guide
I’ve been visiting Felice on a regular basis for nearly a year now, and am increasingly amazed at how clear she is. Without exception and with great integrity, she brings me to a place that is rich and deep and full of insights. Although these insights can come with piercing clarity, they are always softened by Felice’s deep compassion for everything that comes along with being human. I can't think of a better witness to and facilitator for my personal growth processes.

Christine, journalist
A deepening conversation with Felice is like a crystal-clear bath. Whether the things in question are pleasurable or troubling, she provides clarity by shining her clear light of insight on whatever is happening in your life. With the help of the Tarot, she can offer not only empathy but also insight into and an overview of the situation I find myself in. This gives me tools, and a context within which I can recognize and understand myself. At a deeper 'soul level', a visit to Felice is like a homecoming. Even if the advice is to do nothing at all for the time being. Whether my questions are about work, my love life, or my family relationships, as far as I’m concerned, Felice’s crystal-clear bath is always welcome!

Laika Buser, yoga teacher
I highly recommend anyone who has a desire for more depth and meaning, even in turbulent times, to contact this special, wise, woman. Felice taught me to embrace my inner paradoxes instead of trying to solve them. Time and time again, this has brought me to a deeper understanding of who I am, what drives me and of the power that resides within me. When I stop fretting about how to make myself manageable, I have so much energy left over for creativity. Felice helped me regain my self-confidence during an uncertain period. In the coaching sessions and courses she organises, I realised that I can also remain at peace in the eye of the storm. That when I approach the unknown with curiosity, fear soon turns into ‘excitement’ and a problem into a wonderful adventure. The lessons I learnt about how we humans experience our lives through personal stories, archetypes and symbols I still apply every day in my personal life and my work.

Alexandra Smith, coach, storyteller and actress
As I was biking home I thought, she mentiones what I leave unmentioned. Later on I thought, she sees what I leave unmentioned, which means I don't have to explain much and arrive at insights more quickly. A beautiful quality.

Astrid Boogaart, trainer and coach
With an inspiring level of knowledge of the Tarot and other philosophies, life wisdom, and empathetic ability, Felice is able to quickly arrive at the heart of the matter at hand. Seemingly effortlessly, she makes connections and introduces themes that turn out to be very relevant to both the question and the questioner. With great calm and insight, Felice articulately creates a sense of perspective for those who consult her.

At the invitation of Noor Bongers I wrote an article for her research platform Lilith Awakens, about the courage to embrace all parts of ourselves. This was later included in her book Lilith en de Gouden Tijd, of which I was also editor-in-chief.

My answers to Karlijn Visser's questions form an extensive article on body awareness in Holistik's Body Guide. It discusses how you, as a “walking head”, can reconnect with a feeling body and how archetypes can help you do so.
