About Me
From Surviving to Supporting
Hi. I’m Stefany, a certified counsellor and coach who knows what it’s like to feel emotionally exhausted, misunderstood, or stuck in cycles I didn’t choose.
My own path through chronic illness, adversity, complex family dynamics and grief led me to a point where I no longer felt capable of managing by myself. This is when my deep personal work began. I sought out professional help and it changed my life in ways I could not have previously imagined. I loved the process so much that I realised I wanted to do the same for others. Ultimately, I switched my career path from law to psychology in order to do what I'm most passionate about, which is helping others reclaim their voice, self-love, and self-worth.
I completed my training in counselling at the Academy for Coaching and Counselling in The Netherlands and am certified by the LVSC, aka the Dutch National Association for Supervision and Coaching. I have over two years of experience in working with clients, as well as a year of being a teaching assistant for other students at the Academy for Coaching and Counselling. I believe in healing that is sustainable, shame-free, and grounded in who you really are 🤎.
Behind the Magic of Healing ☕️
When I’m not holding space for others in sessions, I’m often enjoying the simple things that make life feel rich and grounded. You’ll usually find me reading a book, drinking too much coffee, watching videos on all kinds of subjects and soaking in the quiet moments that bring me back to myself.
I love spending time with my tribe, who truly get me. I'm also usually with my cat, who is a big part of my world; his calm, intuitive energy reminds me daily to slow down, be curious, and stay connected to the moment.
I find my joy in being cozy and in discovering new ways to make the small daily moments magical and special.
