I will also look at whether aspects of Inner Child coaching can be integrated into the process for you. The Inner Child represents the side in you that can be vulnerable, playful, emotional, etc. If you don't listen to your Inner Child for a long time, it can cause an overload. Your Inner Child also intuitively knows what suits you and what doesn't and it knows when you go beyond your limits. These are just a few reasons why I combine Inner Child Work with Stress and Burn-out coaching. More information about Inner Child coaching can be found here.
In the event of a possible burn-out , it is recommended to consult your doctor before you start a coaching process.
How do I work as stress and burn-outcoach?
Yes, depending on the degree of stress whether it is career related or not. If you experience tension complaints, visit your doctor first.
Is your stress moderate and career related? Then your doctor can refer you to a career coach.
​
Is your stress more intense or do you have a burnout? Then your doctor will probably refer you to a stress and burnout coach, psychologist or psychiatrist. In case of more severe tension complaints, it is important that you first recover and have sufficient energy again before you can start working on important career questions in your life. In case you have enough energy after seeing a doctor or psychologist, then you can contact a career coach.
