WHY ‘COACH^plus?

COACHplus can use besides dialogues interactive, highly effective and result orientated methods which can get to the nitty gritty very fast. Faster means less sessions which results in lesser costs for you.

Unlike some others, with COACHplus fluent really means fluent
Anita Veenstra (1963), who really is COACHplus, received most of her higher education in England and has lived in England, Australia and Japan. She has travelled the world extensively for many years. Many life coaches who claim to be fluent speak reasonably English but are nowhere near as fluent as they should be. Think about it, when you get to what is really all about the nitty gritty you usually start to use more and more expressions, sayings, metaphors, etc. You don’t want to explain yourself regularly and this way interrupt your train of thought. Just as you were getting to that what really matters, which usually is hard enough as it is emotionally. Anita is a linguist, bilingual with English, and there is very little you can throw at her that she doesn’t understand or uses herself. Just phone her and find out for yourself! 

Why choose COACHplus? 
The plus in COACHplus refers to the different kinds of tools and methods that COACHplus has at her disposal, if need be and agreed to by you. Methods such as analytic drawing, working with objects, family- and personal history, family constellations in one on one sessions, etc. These particular methods are highly effective as can make it instantly clear to you what it is really all about and/or what is playing in the background and restricting you.  Crucial information surfaces with these methods which during dialogues would not at all or hardly and with great difficulty. Most of the time the methods used make the invisible visible. From a practical point of view it means the methods used are highly effective and they save you or your company time and money.

Another plus to COACHplus; gaining insight is just the beginning not the end
A lot of life coaches, counsellors, psychologists and psychiatrists and the likes think that when you have gained insight into the cause of your problem, the problem will sort itself out. If you ask Anita, gaining insight is just the beginning. While it is definitely useful to know ‘what’ the cause of your problem is (the link to the current problem), it is even more important to know ‘how’ you can get rid of it or at least deal with it much better. Gaining insight will make you feel relieved (it is not you, it is caused by someone or something in your past) but getting rid of the problem will have an ever lasting positive effect on your life. And after all isn’t that what you really want…

COACHplus her specialties
The plus also refers to the range of specialties COACHplus has such as weight counselling, being ‘the black sheep’, relationship patterns, (family and –organisation) constellations, High Sensitive Person (HSP).

COACHplus gives workshops and training also in some of her specialties (see Agenda). The activities of COACHplus are quite extensive but all have in common that people are guided in their (personal) development.

Why the name COACHplus has been chosen
What’s in a name? Well, a whole lot as will be explained below.
The first criteria the name had to meet was that it had to be understood by both Dutch and English speakers as COACHplus also serves multinationals and ex-pats. On top of that preferably through the name the company’s activities had to be self evident. The chosen name also emphasizes that COACHplus does more than just coaching as apart from coaching COACHplus also gives workshops and counsels. The latter goes further than coaching and focuses more on gaining insight, acceptance and coming to terms with certain things.

COACH^plus is coaching plus a whole lot more, which is why the name COACH^pluswas chosen.
