About Hannah
In my teenage years and early twenties, I was in a place where I felt deeply disconnected from myself. I was constantly trying to become a better version of who I was. And believed health meant discipline, control, and looking a certain way, rather than actually feeling good. But no matter how disciplined I was with food or exercise, I never truly felt at peace.
Exercise and healthy eating started as hobbies, but slowly became ways to cope, feel in control, and feel better about myself. From the outside, it may have looked healthy, but inside I felt anxious, insecure, and constantly uncomfortable in my own skin.
Over time, I started to realise that it was never really about food, exercise, or my body alone. There were deeper emotions, patterns, and beliefs underneath it all. Recovery didn’t happen overnight, but step by step I learned to let go of control, understand myself on a deeper level, and treat myself with more softness and compassion. I found healthier ways to cope, started listening to my own needs again, and slowly found my way back to myself.
“I’m all for taking care of ourselves, but let’s not forget: the point of all this is to feel good. Not to get it perfect. And definitely not to stress about it.”
“These days, life feels a lot lighter. I take care of myself without all the rules, guilt, or pressure to be perfect. To me, real well-being is about feeling connected to yourself and being able to live with more freedom, balance, and trust.
Finding peace with food, my body, and myself made me realise I wanted to support others in finding that same freedom. I trained as an integrative coach at the Institute for Integrative Nutrition, completed an accredited Eating Disorder program through LUMC Boerhaave, followed training in Transactional Analysis and systemic coaching and constellations, and I’m currently pursuing a pre-master in psychology. I also volunteered at an eating disorder clinic before opening my own practice in 2024.
My approach combines practical support with deeper self-understanding. Together, we work on creating a healthier relationship with food, movement, and yourself, while exploring the deeper patterns and emotions underneath it all.
I offer the kind of support I wish I had back then. Personal, with kindness and honesty, and without judgment or rigid protocols. A client once told me I bring “the warmth and safety of a friend, along with the honesty and direction needed to truly face yourself”. I’ve been there too, and that lived experience shapes the way I work: with empathy, patience, and a deep trust in your process.”
