Coaching for nervous system recovery & self regulation

Gentle support for restoring balance and vitality

I support people who experience chronic fatigue due CFS/ME, post-viral syndrome or fatigue due to high sensitivity. My work focuses on nervous system healing through a combination of coaching and body oriented therapy.

Options: 

1. Support for healing (eng/nl)

Personalized, body-based support for your healing journey. If you are not following a specific program but you are seeking support with chronic fatigue, overwhelm, sensitivity or long-term health challenges. 

  • Learn how to self-regulate
  • Create safety from within
  • Feel more connected to yourself and your environment
  • And much more

 

2. Program based (eng/nl)

Are you following the Gupta Program for chronic fatigue, post-viral syndromes, anxiety and more. Together we  fine tune your practice, we work with any challenges that arise, deepen safety, and bring more regulation on board. 

  • Calm a hypersensitive system 
  • Retrain unconscious fear pathways 
  • Gently build capacity
  • And much more

 

 

3. Therapie (only nl) 

Vanaf januari 2026 bied ik individuele therapie aan (een uitbreiding op mijn coaching). 

Ik werk lichaamsgericht en psychosociaal, wat betekent dat we praten én voelen, met aandacht voor jouw zenuwstesel, je emoties en je verhaal. 

  • Werken met grenzen, zelfbeeld, spanning, angst of overprikkeling
  • Ervaringsgericht: leer voelen wat er in je leeft en wat jouw systeem nodig heeft
  • Geen protocol, maar afgestemde therapie

 

Others about the coaching: 

"I would really like to thank Paulien for her insightful coaching sessions which I have enjoyed over the past few months.  I had previously been following the Gupta Program for about a year and derived enormous benefits particularly from the weekly webinars with Ashok. I realized I was looking for some deeper insights into some of the personal issues that had come up for me and Paulien was the perfect 'sounding board'. Her warmth and understated explanations have helped to deepen my experience not only of the Gupta program but in many areas of my life which I believe has resulted in a much healthier and happier me!  I would like to think I could call on Paulien again sometime in the future for more of her valuable insights."

About Paulien

I love nature!! it was a long time one of the few places where I could find some sense of safety, stability, and peace. Even though I was sleeping uncomfortably in a tent, did not digest the food right, felt a constant level of exhaustion, nature lifted me up... because, in some way it was soothing, I could return back into my body and heart.

Very early in life, I got disconnected from myself and prone to stress, viruses, and environmental influences. It took me more than a decade to slowly find my way back to health. I learned to work with myself. Discovering what I needed and when I needed it, and started to give value to the hunches my system was giving me.
My practice is based in the Netherlands since 2012. I speak Dutch and English and I work with people all over the world.
