Welcome

Life is in motion, and so are you.

Life is in motion, and you are an important part of it. It can be overwhelming when everything seems to stand still, and you have no more energy. You feel tired and wonder how you can regain balance.

A tense body, stress, anxious thoughts, and the pressure can become too much for you. The sleepless nights, burdened with thoughts that just won't stop, don't make it any easier.

Welcome to Balanskompass, I am Veronica Kroon, an Integrative counselor, and I support you in finding your balance, so you can energetically enjoy the things that are important to you.

Through counseling in an integrative manner tailored to you and your specific situation, I guide you towards deep and lasting change. You become aware of what you need, your direction (compass) to find your energy and balance.

Together, we embark on a brief journey of about 6 sessions, so you can feel energized again and enjoy life. I understand that finding time to work on yourself can be difficult, but it's important for you. With peace and confidence, I am here to support.

Then the question arises: can a brief journey really make a difference, especially when you've been dealing with your issue for a while? This can be achieved by focusing on the core of the issue, creating awareness, gaining insights, and with support, you can address, resolve, and do what's necessary to feel good again.

What I often encounter in my practice:

anxiety
sadness
insecurity
perfectionism and fear of failure
stress and responsibilities
feeling of loneliness
overthinking
shame, quilt
lack of energie, fatique
difficult-to-proces setbacks, events

The right time to relax is when you don't have time for it.

Brief journey:
In about 6 sessions on average, your thoughts and feelings, as well as what's happening in your life, take center stage. Together, we will work on solutions for the challenges you face in your daily life. The session's content will be tailored to your specific situation. The goal of our collaboration is your autonomy, so you'll know how to proceed on your own.

We'll start with an initial intake session, which can be conducted online or in person at my practice. After the intake session, you decide whether to start the journey. It's important that you have confidence in the journey and our collaboration. This intake is free of charge if the collaboration doesn't continue. Otherwise, it's considered the first session. Sessions last for 60 minutes.

Feeling pressure, stress, and lacking energy? Would you like to enjoy everything in your life with energy and balance? Contact me for more information or to determine if you can start in the near future.

Integrative coaching and counseling

The approach consists of individual conversations in which various exercises and techniques are applied, tailored to you and your specific question. I employ both coaching and counseling. The difference between coaching and counseling? While coaching mainly focuses on potential, self-management, and acquiring more effective behavior, counseling is more about addressing internal barriers.

Exercises and techniques that can be applied, if they are suitable for you and your issue, include a few examples below:

Relaxation techniques
Visualizations, imaginations, trance
Parts work, counseling, inner child work
Examples of coaching techniques:
energy management, values hierarchy,
meaningful factors at work,
destructive belief, drama triangle.

The foundation of counseling is awareness of the 'why,' which is crucial in achieving change. You become aware of what you need and your direction, and based on that, you take your next steps. In each session, we reflect on what you've experienced following the previous conversation, so that ultimately you achieve your goal and enjoy your life with energy.

If every person would make another person happy, the whole world would be happy. (quote by Wim Kan)

Client testimonials:

Evelien,

The sessions with Veronica have brought me more awareness and clarity. In a decisive manner, she asked just the right questions that helped me gain more insight into myself, my thought process, or my own beliefs. As a result, she helped me step out of certain patterns. I can now adjust even more consciously because I have learned to use my own compass even better.

Mireille,

Veronica is genuine and gives you the tools to regain control over your emotions and thoughts, your own life and your perception of it by listening carefully and zooming in on complex and sensitive situations in your life.

Daan.

"I came to Veronica with a problem that was bothering me on a daily basis. I wanted to get to the core of it and understand why I had to deal with my 'problem' every day instead of learning a trick to stop it. With the right questions from Veronica, we came closer and closer to the core, and I realized what the underlying problems were for me. This made me very aware of what is going on inside me, which I wouldn't have been able to do without Veronica's sessions. We looked at this and anchored my new intentions in the 'subconscious', and I immediately experienced changes. It's fantastic, and sometimes confronting, to get to know yourself like this and to experience change so quickly. In short, super."

Helen,

We were so blessed that a work colleague recommended Veronica to be our coach and luckily, she was available and said yes! From the minute we met her at our first introduction meeting, I knew she was special. Not being from the Netherlands and having our first baby during Covid with no access to family was overwhelming to say the least but Veronica made the experience so calm, considered and supported us right the way through. For me, what was so unique was that Veronica looked at our whole family unit and took our life journey into account. Veronica is thoughtful, kind, smart and always thinks of the bigger picture. We really couldn’t have managed our first few weeks without her and we still refer to her wonderful words of wisdom on a weekly basis :). When I need to check in and rebalance, I always reach out to Veronica

Lizette.

Veronica helped me to identify exactly what I could work on. By looking together at certain patterns in my behavior and analyzing them, I gained the necessary insights into what I was constantly struggling with. She took the time to do this and put me at ease. She uses the right words to reassure me and pushes where necessary. After a few sessions, I already noticed improvements in my work situation, and it now continues in my daily life as well. We did many sessions online, which worked well for both of us.

Veronica Kroon

With calmness and confidence, I practice my work as an integrative counselor in a goal-oriented manner, where genuine and authentic connection between the client and me takes precedence.

Trained as an Integrative coach and counselor at the Dutch Academy for Psychotherapy in Amsterdam, I guide clients in my private practice and online. I am assertive, empathetic, and unbiased. Everything is allowed to exist. On one hand, I offer loving confrontation when needed; on the other hand, I provide clarity and humor.

Before starting my practice as an integrative counselor-coach, I worked in the pedagogical field and spent 18 years in maternity care. From maternity care, I took the step to broaden my horizons, driven by my love and compassion for people and the life phases that accompany them, to provide deeper-level guidance.

Who am I? As a little girl, I quickly realized that balance in life is very important, even when many things are at play that you sometimes have no control over. This was confirmed for me in my work.

I am also a mother of three children and one stepchild, and I live with my partner and dog on the water, yet still within the city. I enjoy water activities and outdoor time with my family on a daily basis. Through my personal experiences, both private and largely through my work, I can lovingly approach life's challenges.
