Consulting

If you carry responsibility for a small or medium-sized enterprise, consulting offers a calm, structured space to develop ideas and create clarity in complex situations.

Used as an experienced sounding board, I will act as your neutral advisor for all matters of business and people or leadership management.

It might also be the case that the optimum mix of critical thinking, experience and expertise cannot be found in-house. This is where I can strengthen your team when you need it. 

My consulting draws on many years of experience as a managing director and board member of international engineering manufacturing and sales companies. 

Coaching

I support clients to address personal challenges, work on their personal goals and become a happier, better version of themselves.

Embarking on a relationship with a coach, whether it be for professional or personal goals, can be a wonderful and life-changing experience. 

With many years of experience in coaching individuals from a wide range of backgrounds, I can truly say that each coaching relationship is a very personal and bespoke process. 

Matters addressed may revolve around  improving self-awareness, changing behaviour, addressing a conflict, dealing with loss, hurt or trauma, improving your life quality, losing certain fears etc. - ultimately it is always about change.

We will focus on what you want to achieve and, if you wish, and where beneficial, will use hypnotherapy to deepen and accelerate changes.

Hypnotherapy

Hypnosis is a deeply relaxed, yet highly focused state of consciousness. It is often experienced as deeply calming and restorative.

It has been scientifically shown to affect brain actvity and the body's stress and healing responses measurably.

Hypnosis offers a gentle and powerful way of working directly with deeper levels of your unconscious, where long-standing patterns and emotional responses are stored. 

By allowing out-moded patterns to leave, and reinforcing helpful elements, hypnotherapy addresses conflicts, fears or trauma, supports inner calm and emotional regulation, reduces anxiety and inner tension, restores energy, strengthens creativity, improves performance and confidence, deepens intuition and creates clarity around goals, direction and the best way forward.

Maike curated an open relationship from the off, I felt comfortable to open up quickly, so we effectively and importantly efficiently were able to tackle difficult subjects from the start of our relationship. I even tried hypnotherapy, the results have been incredible!
