Systemic Coaching

What is Systems Thinking?

If I talk to you, there are more than two people present. We are surrounded by our family members, friends, teachers ... Both of us are influenced by people in our families and other relationships. Both of us are influenced by beliefs and prejudices from people in our schools, cultures, national origin, religion, etc.

Western medicine focuses on details of our bodies, and generally ignore these relationship influences. Yet you and I are part of many relationship systems. We each represent our families, teams and communities. Our relationships are not separable from our everyday lives.

Systems Thinking looks at people as an integral part of larger systems. There is no such thing as minds separate from body systems, or people separate from human systems. Feelings and emotions are body processes. What's in your mind reflects your body systems ... and your human systems.

What problems can systemic coaching solve?

I am a systemic coach and I use an interactive approach. We discuss your concerns, complaints and goals, while asking you questions. I look at how you got into whatever situation you are in, what you can do to solve it and how to prevent similar problems in the future.

Systemic coaching is useful for:

Relationship difficulties
Trauma, bereavement and loss
Violence and abuse
Anxiety, fear & phobia
Obsessions and compulsions
Chronic pain or illness
Emotional incest, separation and divorce
