Sabine Meijer Coaching & Advies

If you appreciate a postive and goal orientated approach to achieve your goals

Why coaching?

Coaching has a powerful and very positive impact on your self-confidence, wellness, and/ or work performance as a whole. Your goal is probably to improve a certain skill or change behaviour in one of these areas. My goal is to empower you.

 

You can think of many different goals like:

  • You want to develop more self-awareness. Understand better where you are coming from and what your blind spots are and how you can put all this to your advantage.
  • You want to get a better insight in your strengths and weaknesses, learn how to benefit from your strenghts and work on areas of improvement.
  • You want to be more resilient and handle change or difficult circumstances better.
  • You want to build your confidence, which helps your overall feeling of well-being.
  • You want to find the right balance in your life or a better work-life balance.
  • You want to improve your self-care, set your own priorities and make them a bigger part of your life to improve your own well-being.
  • You want to reach your full potential and achieve the success you desire.
  • You want to find direction or want to be more in control.
  • You want to determine what’s important to you in life and focus on that.
  • You want to get (re-)motivated.
  • You want to get rid of unnecessary stress in your life.
  • You want to be able to set clear boundaries.
  • You want to feel less stuck, overwhelmed or frustrated.
  • You want to be able to deal better with loss.
  • You want to find out which road you want to take next now you are at a cross road, or find out how to actually make the choice you want to make most of all, but are not sure how to actually do it.
  • You want to change certain habits, but you are not sure how.

 

Let me help you with question like these, or questions on any other topic or area in your life.

I help you figure out exactly what it is you want to change or do differently and I help you to decide how you can do that, in a way that suits you as a person. I won’t give you the answers, but I will help you find your own answers.

Personal coaching

What can you expect from me?


I support and guide you and help you to improve your performance in order to reach your goals and also to put you back into the driver’s seat. So you feel in control again and struggles are easier to handle. I help you build your self-awareness around all the different roles you have in your life. That means we look at who you are, what your personal circumstances are, what you want and need as an individual, assess where you are right now, where you would like to go, what your goal is and how you can get what you need in a way that works best for you.

 

I’ll guide you by asking you challenging questions, making you aware of your thoughts and helping you to give you more insight into the different choices you have by showing you different and often new ways to look at things and even making you think in new ways. Through my expertise I bring you perspective, insight and growth. If we get to work together, you will be able to move forward and get closer to wherever you want to be in life. I challenge you, inspire you and support you, while you work on your development and on achieving your goals. And I will not just help you reaching your goals, but also help you reach an overall more happy and positive feeling and feeling more confident in getting where you want to be & in pursuing your dreams.

 

Last but not least: Everything we talk about is confidential. I offer you a safe space to explore and grow and I will not judge you.

What do I expect of you? 

- You have to put in the work, while I facilitate you.

- You are in control, so you determine the pace and your own path.

- You set your own goals and you determine what success looks like for you.

- You bring your own self and are open and honest about who you are and what you feel and what you feel you need.

- You are willing to look at yourself, at the good as well as the areas of improvement.

 

I expect you to be honest and put in the work that is needed, because that is the key to your success. It won’t always be easy, but you will have someone next to you who challenges, inspires and supports you when you are working hard, while your confidence grows.

 

About Sabine Meijer

Let me tell you a little bit about myself. 


I am Dutch, but had a bilingual upbringing, as I spend a couple of my teenage years in England and went to a boarding school and an international school afterwards. So, I offer personal coaching to the Dutch-speaking as well as the English-speaking. From a young age I learned to deal with change. As we moved around quite a bit, which meant going to new schools, making new friends, dealing with losing everything that you had to leave behind and finding your feet over and over again. It definitely helped me in life as I can easily adapt to change, know how to hold on to what is important and I learned how to connect to and develop a relationship with people in no time. I also learned how to get things done. 

 

My biggest asset is my practical and down to earth approach. I am solution and action focused and I have a positive outlook on life. I always see opportunities and I always try to understand where people are coming from. I also like to explore less obvious choices. I am honest, but always respectful and find a sense of humour very important. I do like to challenge you and I definitely enjoy seeing others move forward and grow. That is when I will cheer you on!   

 

I have had many different positions in my working life and both as a senior legal adviser and as a manager I have already gained a lot of experience in coaching people. To me it has always been important to bring out the best in people around me, put their qualities and talents to good use and let them develop as much as possible. I am happy when I see I can help to bring out the best in people, when I can get them to find their own answers and solutions and when I can get them to develop further. I like to inspire, activate and motivate people. For me all very good reasons to become a coach practitioner. In this profession I get to do just that.

 

I am affiliated with the Dutch Association of Professional Coaches and I comply with the guidelines of the Association (the guidelines are in Dutch).




Sabine Meijer Coaching & Advies

Do you want to see some positive changes in your life? 

Let me help you to determine and to reach your goals. 


Let's get acquainted!


How does it work? 



An introductory meeting


We always start with a noncommittal introductory meeting. This can be done by phone, online or in a personal meeting.


We do not only get acquainted, but we also look at goals and questions. You get a feeling of who I am and you also have an idea of how I work.


If it feels right for both of us, we can start working together. In that case we enter into a contract.


One on one sessions


We agree on how often we will meet, which depends on your personal needs and if the schedule needs to be adjusted somewhere along the way, we do so. You determine the pace.

 

We will go over your goals first of all. We explore what it is you exactly want to achieve. I will ask questions and listen carefully in order to define what is important to you and what that means in terms of setting your goal. Once it is clear what you want to achieve, we figure out where you are standing at the moment and what steps you need to take to reach your goal.

 

Working towards your goal doesn't stop at our sessions. You will probably be doing certain tasks inbetween sessions as well. What those tasks are is something we discuss together. The time between two sessions usually varies somewhere between two and three weeks. During our sessions we always look back, before we look forward again. Have you done what you planned to do? How did it work out for you and where do we go from there?

 

I offer in person as well as online coaching sessions, or even a mix, whatever works best.

As I am located in the beautiful, quiet and pleasant countryside of Oost-, West- en Middelbeers, we don't just have to have sessions inside, but can go outside anytime we want. All we have to do is cross the road. Experience shows that conversations outside feel a bit more casual, therefor it is sometimes experienced as less confronting or even easier to talk about the harder things for some.


It’s not whether you get knocked down; it’s whether you get up again, as they say.

Do you want to know how to prevent being knocked down, or do you need

some help getting up?


Let's get acquainted!  


COSTS & REIMBURSEMENT OPTIONS 

Reimbursement options

If your employer doesn’t offer you to pay for the sessions, I advise you to always check whether there are other possibilities to get a contribution in the costs.

 

Collective labour agreement

Sometimes there are possibilities for compensation stated in your collective labour agreement, for example a career development budget or a personal development budget. Check this in your collective labour agreement or ask your employer.

 

Employer

Your employer often has options for a contribution. Think of a training or development budget, a budget to prevent sick-leave or a budget for the purpose of reintegration. I advise you to always inquire about this.

 

Tax authorities

As an entrepreneur, business expenses are deductible. For more information, please contact the tax authorities.


Package deal for private individuals


I offer a package consisting of 5 sessions of a maximum of 75 minutes. You pay € 525,00 VAT included*. The General Terms and Conditions of Sabine Meijer Coaching & Advice apply.

 

* There will be no additional costs for preparation or other things. Additional costs can only be charged if, for example, a different location is requested. This will always be discussed with you.

 

The hourly rate for individual sessions is € 100,00 VAT included.

 

Do you have questions or are you interested? Please do not hesitate to contact me.

For businesses


Experience shows that customisation is the key to success. Depending on individual wants and needs and my professional opinion we will agree on the number of sessions and over what period of time we will meet for these sessions. 


I always make a personal quotation depending on your wishes and needs, so you know in advance where you stand. The General Terms and Conditions of Sabine Meijer Coaching & Advice apply.


Do you have any questions or would you like to see whether a particular case is suitable for coaching?

Or do you have specific wishes? Please do not hesitate to contact me.
