Experiences
from others
Anjali, Amstelveen
Coaching by Swie ensures that I learn tools to be able to understand my own emotions and to change unconscious learned behaviors.
What I like about the sessions is that Swie guides me to gain insights and never puts words into my mouth. In addition, she has a great deal of patience, understanding and allows me all the time I need to gain insights myself. The sessions therefore never feel rushed. It is also a plus for me that Swie coaches in my own house. . For me, the familiar environment of my own house ensures that I am very daring to open up and allow emotions.

I have experienced Swie as a very professional and critical coach. Swie can guide you in your own process, without judgment, and ensures that you come to more insights from yourself without really steering. In this she can be stimulating and she holds up a mirror in a friendly way.
She is empathetic and also very pleasant to work with as a person. The conversations have brought me a lot. In this way she really made me think about my thinking patterns, what I find important in the balance between work and private life, and how I can better understand my feelings.
I have experienced our conversations as very valuable.

Swie’s calm attitude made me feel at ease with the first session. I have always found it very difficult to open myself to others and Swie has guided me through this step by step. Immediately after the first session, a whole new world opened up for me.
Through the sessions I learned to look at my own behavior and how I can express myself without blaming someone else. My style of communication has changed and I can now recognize myself when I fall into my blueprint (automatic response) behavior. A very useful skill, because I can correct myself again.
Through coaching I have regained control of my own emotions, and my relationship with my partner and family has become stronger. Not by pushing away the emotion, but by analyzing and expressing it. A skill that has helped me grow on both a personal and professional level.

I really like the personal approach of the coaching of Swie. She is going together into certain topics of the past to see where patterns are coming from. It helps me to understand my behavior and work with it. That makes me stronger in my vision and to get more self-confident in my personal life but also at work situations.
It was great that Swie coached me in English since I am living in Holland and not a native dutch speaker.

The coaching was very educational. I have become aware of my character traits and way of thinking. Swie was very professional, not guiding or judging, she remained objective. She was easy to accept as a confidant, remained calm and asked good questions. Swie’s qualities are clear that she can let someone come to new thoughts and insights by asking the right questions.
The coaching came at exactly the right time for me. I have learned so much about myself. The essence of my character. How do I behave and how have I formed myself and what events have formed me?
It provided insight, explanation and possibilities for change (improvement).
And that was my wish to feel happier and happier!

I ended up at Swie because I was looking for a coach who would stimulate me, not be distracted by my protective mechanisms and give me tools to listen better to my feelings.
Swie has the ability to make you feel safe very quickly. This allows her to ask you very difficult questions, break through your armor and let you get to the core, but with attention to the person and the feeling behind it. She does not judge and asks many clarifying questions. She summarizes a lot, knows how to keep the thread of the conversation going and if you lose your way, she takes you by the hand to lead you back. Within 4 sessions she has already given me so many new insights and tools to deal with difficult situations.
I am very happy that I made the choice to be coached by Swie, and that with her help I can improve my relationships with others, my relationship with myself and me in my career.

I think it is a very special process that I am going through now. I really like Swie’s coaching style. It is calm and I have a good opportunity to explain what is going on.
After a session I often feel as if I have been in the matrix. For a moment you leave reality and come back as a 2.0 version of yourself. A few ”updates”/sessions later, I have made gigantic steps in my personal growth, which I never expected and am very grateful to Swie for.
The result is that I now live much happier and it has given me an enormous boost in both my career and my private life.
Budi, Haarlem
For me, Swie is like a clear mirror without judgement. Through the sessions with her I learned to go towards what I always avoided and to feel emotions that I did not want to feel. This provides plenty of space, relaxation, freedom of choice and self-knowledge. I can now act from strength instead of fear. And I understand myself a lot better. That feels extremely valuable. In short, a great coach.” ❤️

I ended up at Swie by chance and it was exactly what I needed at that moment. Her calm and non-judgmental approach made me immediately feel at ease and able to be vulnerable. She asks exactly the right questions, so we usually quickly get to the core. Often very confrontational, but as a result I have had many eye-openers that will be valuable for the rest of my life. Both in my private and professional life.

I learned an incredible amount during my coaching sessions with Swie. I never knew in advance where the conversation would go, which led to new discoveries over and over again. What I liked is that Swie put a summary on paper at the end of our conversation and was able to explain to me very clearly where important connections lie. The sessions have made me a lot more aware of my strengths and pitfalls and I still benefit from this every day!
