As someone with personal experience, I know the impact a divorce or relationship crisis can have. Although I am happily married myself, my parents divorced and later remarried each other. As a teenager, I experienced firsthand how a divorce affects not only the partners themselves, but the entire family and the whole system in which the relationship exists.

For many years, I have been fascinated by what enables two people who initially seem unable to find a way forward, who are stuck in patterns and unintentionally hurt each other, sometimes simply by staying together without having the power to change anything, to find a resolution. This has given me a great deal of insight.

Driven by this interest in how (social) systems work and how the human factor influences them, I studied sociology. Through my many years of experience as an entrepreneur and project manager at a wide range of social organisations, I have learned to work in a structured and efficient way, recognise conflicts and patterns, and analyse and solve complex issues.

These skills are invaluable in my work as a mediator and divorce coach. I listen carefully, unravel patterns and provide the tools to rebuild communication and trust despite conflict. Combined with my knowledge of social systems and human behaviour, I am able to support people professionally and decisively in making practical, concrete agreements that are acceptable to both parties, while taking into account the interests of everyone involved, especially any children.

Whether it involves reaching an agreement before, during or after a divorce process, or achieving personal goals, I find great fulfilment in working with people and listening to their needs in order to support them in reshaping their relationship and redesigning their future. So that they can move forward stronger and more consciously; happily together or happily divorced together.
