Do you recognize yourself in this?
You go on and on, until you are tired or the light goes out and you end up sitting at home 'over-stressed' or with a burn out. Sustainable employability and vitality demand more and more attention in this time of increased work pressure, because absenteeism is an 'energy drain' for you and your organization that costs a lot of money and fun.

Martin is a fantastic personal coach for transitioning. He excels at combining and varying coaching philosophies and techniques, finding what suits you and your situation. I rediscovered my passion and personal leadership as a director.
"Martin Thoolen is a great coach, with a clear approach and plenty of room for genuine deepening. The book "Spirites Personal Leadership" has given me valuable tools for further personal development, I write with a big smile! Thanks, Martin".
Martin has reconnected my head, heart and soul. This automatically resulted in me rediscovering my own strength. I also learned to handle (emotional) manipulation, confrontation and overcome my fears. I am extremely grateful to Martin for rediscovering myself and would like everyone to have this experience. In short: I highly recommend Martin's coaching!!!
"The coaching has given increased my resilience has given me new confidence. What helped is that Martin is a very experienced coach with knowledge of many topics. Each issue is viewed from several perspectives and is clarifying and effective. Ik found it a great gift!"
"From Martin I quickly and flawlessly gained insight into why I sometimes run into the same things and how I can apply changes with tools. This not only improves collaboration on the work floor, but also my employability sustainability."
With my more than thirty years of experience, I know how to recognize the opportunities and the pitfalls of overstrain, burnout, vitality and sustainable employability in practice. In addition, through my years of trainer experience, I master proven theoretical models and exercises. As a result, you can return to work in a whistling manner and remain permanently employable.
For example, I give insights and tips about stress and time management. However, that can easily prove insufficient if you remain unaware of the power of your ego and soul that nourishes it.
From my experience it appears that most people who get burned out have a strong ego identification with their inner pleaser, pusher and/or perfectionist. If you don't balance it, you can easily get overstrained a second time. And that is not always easy to avoid, especially if your ego is sometimes stubbornly chasing lasting recognition or approval from outside. Moreover, your basic energy is not at the right level if you do something structural that you are not passionate about. In that case, we also look at how you can restore that.
Because my approach is very practical on the one hand, but also in-depth as a clinical and organizational psychologist, the effects are more fundamental and you remain more vital and sustainable for longer.

The journey to your recovery requires you to learn to recognize, acknowledge and use your stress signals as hard and sincere. This beneficial route requires you to look honestly at yourself, at both your strength and vulnerability. I offer you for that safety and insights.
In addition to your own behavioral choices, you will receive insights and tools to improve the balance within yourself. Not only through tips and tricks so much, but through new control of the 'nature of the beast' (your ego). Because you can change behaviour, just like weeding weeds, but if you don't tackle it at the root, it will come back.
In addition to these opportunities that I can offer you, you increase the chance of having more fun and energy in your job if you go out on your own. I encourage you to get started with the insights gained and to keep working with exercises and practical assignments. You are pointed out the possibilities and impossibilities and you learn to see how you can become a co-architect of your own energy balance again.

There is no question of a standard trajectory for me, just as no use is made of only models. Customization is provided, tailored to your reality. This is because everyone is unique and therefore different. If you opt for vitality coaching with me, there is a fair chance that you will continue to work with pleasure and energy.
A vitality coaching trajectory normally consists of 4 to 8 sessions of 1.5 hours. This allows us to really dive in deep and tackle your questions at the core.
The first four coaching sessions follow each other in rapid succession (every week or two weeks), so that you really make progress with what you have been given. After a verbal interim evaluation, we examine whether the desired development has come about. If we continue the process you will act increasingly on the basis of your own strength. The remaining sessions will be every 2, 3 or 4 weeks. Then you always have a back-up to look forward to.
I use three methods of arranging the intake and coaching sessions:
Intake interviews are free of charge, regardless of whether they lead to further coaching. Average amount of sessions; 6 till 8 of 1,5 hours. The number of sessions is dependent on the number of questions and the rate of development. Below you can see the current costs per coaching session.
The price for a Coaching session, paid by companies of 1.5 hours is € 275,= and of 1 hour € 200,= excl. 21% VAT, when requested by an organisation. If you have to pay for this from your own business as a freelancer (and not by the organisation), you will receive a 15% discount. A discount of 15% also applies to NGO’s. If you pay for it entirely out of your own private pocket, the rate is € 175,= for 1.5 hours (incl. 21% VAT) and for 1 hour € 125,= (incl. 21% VAT).
For additional consultation with your manager, HRM employee, company doctor or employer, the time will be charged in accordance with the above rates.
