growing circles<\/strong> is all about connecting \u2013 to others, to the things around you, and to yourself. When connections break down, you don\u2019t feel well. Stress, conflict, doubts, loneliness and physical symptoms are then lurking. But connections can be restored. Whether it is about interpersonal relations or getting in touch with your emotions. I help you growing in connection.<\/p>

The following principles are important in my work :<\/span><\/p>

  1. Each person and situation is unique. The basis of good counseling is careful listening without judgement.<\/li>
  2. A problem is never someone\u2019s<\/em> problem. Such a perspective makes things freeze. When you take the whole situation into account, things may start to move.<\/li>
  3. Emotions are no obstacles but road signs for change.<\/li>
  4. Keep it simple. Mostly, tools distract from what it is all about.<\/li><\/ol>

    In \u201cbackground\u201d you can find more information about my framework and approach.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

    Hanno van Eldik<\/span><\/h2>

    I am 41 years old, married with three children. Sociologist, counselor, stress & burn-out coach, and prevention advisor in psychosocial well-being.<\/p>

    People say that I am a good listener. I am truly interested in the way you perceive yourself and your situation, and how you deal with it. I am empathic and supportive but I can also point at where the problem lies. I do not run away from difficult emotions.<\/p>

    My roots are in Groningen, the very northern part of the Netherlands. Since 20 years, I live in and around Brussels, where I studied sociology. Besides my interest in social dynamics, I have become increasingly interested in the world of emotions over the years. To further explore this path, I started a three-year counselor training, which I will complete this year.<\/p>

    Since 2011, I have helped hundreds of people, teams and organizations in dealing with stress, conflicts and emotional problems as a consultant in psychosocial well-being. Besides, I am highly interested in family dynamics and the challenges of growing up. As a counseling teacher, I have gained experience in working with primary school children.\u00a0<\/p>

    I am affiliated to the following professional associations :<\/p>

      • VVCEPC (Flemish Association for Client-centered-Experiential Psychotherapy and Counseling)<\/li>
      • VESB (Association of Certified Stress & Burn-out coaches).<\/li><\/ul><\/li><\/ul>

        why work with me ?<\/em><\/span><\/p>

        • over 12 years of experience in guiding psychosocial processes<\/li>
        • focus on interaction and emotions, instead of on models and tools<\/li>
        • solutions tailored to your situation and needs<\/li>
        • evidence-based method, personal approach<\/li>
        • trilingual (NL, FR, EN)<\/li><\/ul>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
