What I can do for you

When you search on grief counseling, I assume that you are living with a loss, and that that loss hurts in some way. Loss has many faces. It doesn't even always have to be about someone who has died. It can be loss of health, or something you had hoped or expected, which you now know will never happen. The rawness, and sense of emptiness that loss often brings makes you search for ways to make sense of what happened to you. Of course, there is no one-size-fits-all answer. It all depends on what you experience and what was-and still is-important to you in your relationship to who or what you lost. So what can I do for you? I can be a conversation partner for you. I can listen to what happened and how you experience the loss. I can help you look at the loss in different ways and give it a meaningful place. In addition, my experience is that your loss has given you a different and unwanted role in life. That can create a lot of tension. We can dwell on that, too.

What others think

Read the experiences of people who have been mentored by me.

"I came to Hanneke for CI. That's also how the death of my brother, Michel, came up. His death still hurt me. With Hanneke, I learned that my grief was allowed to be there. And by looking at it together, I learned to give his death and my grief meaning again; his life was dignified and my grief underscores his dignity. Thus, my pain became gentle and bearable. Hanneke understands what comfort is. Under loving and expert guidance, she helped me walk the new path from grief to peace at my own pace and with respect and dignity."

"Hanneke attunes to my being, is following in the moment, where I am and what I am feeling, gives me back what she sees, hears, feels and thinks openly, directly and lovingly. The conversations have brought me further along my path again."

"Untangle the knot in yourself" was the first thing I read on Hanneke's website, a phrase that touched me! And that's how I felt too ... in the knot. Because after four years since the death of my sister, I actually still felt lost. I was bobbing along on the waves of the sea but had no direction, deep inside I was in a knot because of the intense grief and great loss. Through the online sessions with Hanneke I was understood and she encouraged me to think and to new beautiful insights. So valuable. I wish everyone a Hanneke. She is knowledgeable, empathetic, professional and has a warm calm voice. I now know that after grief comes not a period but a comma! Thank you dear Hanneke for the fine and constructive conversations and trust."

Don't worry

  • Should you still not want to work with me after an introductory conversation, that's okay. The conversation is designed to explore whether Compassionate Inquiry might be for you.
  • I invite you to feel and pay attention to emotions and physical sensations. You yourself decide whether you can and will. I follow your pace.
