Trauma Treatment and EMDR in Rotterdam
Trauma can quietly shape the way you think, feel, and relate to others, often lingering long after the original experience. As a life coach at Solutions Life Coaching in Rotterdam, I offer personalized trauma coaching to help you regain balance, strengthen resilience, and find clarity. Depending on your individual needs, I may incorporate EMDR-informed techniques, a powerful and evidence-based method for working through unresolved experiences. Whether you’re feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or disconnected, I’m here to support you on your healing journey.
Your brain remembers what you’ve survived
Trauma Coaching in Rotterdam
Trauma doesn’t always come from a single major event, it can slowly develop through a series of smaller experiences over time. In our sessions, I’ll help you explore how your past may still be shaping your thoughts, emotions, and patterns today. By recognizing how trauma influences your daily life, we create room for healing with compassion, not shame. If you're in Rotterdam, I offer trauma-informed coaching to support you in moving forward with clarity and self-awareness.
You can rewire how it feels
Heal with EMDR
I use EMDR techniques to help your brain reprocess traumatic memories so they lose their emotional intensity. Through guided methods like eye movement or tapping, we activate your brain’s natural ability to heal and restore emotional balance. This method supports deep trauma recovery and lasting inner calm.
We always move at your pace, with safety and consent guiding every step. The memories may remain, but their emotional weight gradually fades. Many of my clients, especially expats, say they feel more grounded, lighter, and free after just a few sessions. If you’re looking for English-speaking trauma and life coaching in Rotterdam, I’m here to support you.
Professionally certified
About me
Get to know me
I’m Virginie van Driel, a life coach with over 30 years of experience in counseling, mental health, and addiction support. I hold a Master’s degree in Counseling from the U.S. and a Dutch Bachelor’s in Education, along with credentials as an LCADC, LPC, and NBCC. While I don’t practice as a psychotherapist in the Netherlands, I am a registered psychologist with the Nederlands Instituut van Psychologen (NIP). My coaching approach combines professional knowledge with a warm, personal connection.
Each session is practical, goal-oriented, and adapted to your individual needs. Whether you’re working through stress, trauma, relationship challenges, or addiction, I’ll help you gain clarity, focus, and resilience. I’m also trained in EMDR, which can be included in our coaching when it supports your healing process.
You don’t need to have everything figured out, just the willingness to take the first step.
Healing is the bravest kind of progress
Find lasting relief in Rotterdam
The goal of trauma healing isn’t to erase the past, it’s to release its emotional grip on your life. EMDR helps change how trauma is stored in the mind and body, so you can reclaim your energy, sharpen your focus, and reconnect with a sense of calm. It’s not about forgetting, it’s about easing the intensity so it no longer shapes your present.
Many clients describe a deep shift, less emotional reactivity, clearer boundaries, and a stronger sense of inner safety. The fear softens, the fog clears, and life starts to feel more open. If you're looking for trauma recovery or EMDR-informed life coaching in Rotterdam, I am here to support your healing journey.
