My name is Felice Derkinderen and I’ll show you who you are. How beautiful, good, and whole you are. And that you matter.
your own path
My receptive view brings me unusual insights - often hidden beneath the surface - which make me more and more aware of what it means to be human. The creative imagination is the field where I feel at home. As an artist and during my work as a professional photographer I became fascinated by the remarkable encounters I had, and by the process of creating an image of an essential part of a person’s personality. This led me to delve deeper into the human psyche and to look for methods that would make this possible.
Intensive practice and study of systems that promote consciousness development and healing offered signposts and tools on a path that led inward. But my search was also coloured by resistance. Precisely by experiencing where it was not for me, I then found where I needed to go. And I gradually discovered that sometimes it was the other way around. That when I felt resistance, I had to move towards it to find what lay behind it. For example, parts of myself that I had excluded. A beautiful paradox.
It is this dance with polarities - which are not opposites, but parts that complement each other - that I prefer to embody in my guidance. Lively and with softness, serving your process. For me, this provides the opportunity to make the naked truth visible, which liberatingly shows who you really are. Because only your inner truth provides a reliable compass to navigate with. A beaten path is someone else's path.

knowledge and love
The Tarot has enriched and deepened my life and I have come to love the symbolism hidden within its images. I have found it to be an ingenious system for reflecting on life. An inspirational, powerful, and enlightening resource for gaining insight into inner processes. It is a privilege to be able to help others use this resource to facilitate their own development.
This knowledge and love, along with twenty-five years of study and personal experience with Eastern and Western wisdom traditions, come together in the group trainings and individual guidance that I offer, and in the articles that I write. My inquiring mind is balanced by a rich imagination and a well-developed intuition. Therefore, I can take you beyond logical frameworks while keeping you anchored in reality. I also regularly collaborate with professionals from related fields to create synergy for transformation.
