More information about Heidi Rooijakkers

As a coach and career advisor, I help you gain clarity on what is truly important to you, so that you can make choices that align with who you are and where you want to go. I believe that the answers are already within you. My role is to help make them visible together with you, enabling you to take control of your career and life.

Coaching style

My coaching style is engaged, in-depth, and focused on awareness. With kindness and curiosity, I invite you to explore what truly matters to you. I combine empathy with an analytical perspective and guide you in discovering insights that contribute to personal growth and personal effectiveness.

Approach

My approach is development-oriented and guided by three core values: authenticity, connection, and movement.

  • Authenticity: creating space to be who you are, without judgment; this is the foundation for growth.
  • Connection: genuine contact with yourself, others, and what is meaningful to you.
  • Movement: taking appropriate steps toward greater fulfillment and work satisfaction.

Target Groups

I have extensive experience supporting diverse groups and am familiar with assisting people with disabilities or differences, such as ADHD, autism, giftedness, high sensitivity, and chronic conditions. I am also well-acquainted with the academic environment.

Methods and Tools

With my broad educational background and experience, I have a comprehensive toolkit of (career) instruments and methods at my disposal. I work, among others, with ACT (Acceptance and Commitment Therapy), a practical, scientifically supported method that helps manage difficult thoughts and emotions while focusing on what truly matters. ACT is particularly helpful for overcoming stagnation, worrying, work pressure, and decision-making. Additionally, I have experience with questions of meaning, body-oriented work, stress and burnout guidance, and creative counseling.

Professional Background

As a coach, I am accredited at practitioner level by NOBCO and certified as a Register Career Professional by Noloc. I am also an assessor and mentor at Noloc, which keeps me well-informed of current developments in the field.

Curious about what I can do for you? Feel free to get in touch. I look forward to meeting you!
