Over Daniel

For Daniel, it started small: anxiety crept into his life and gradually took centre stage. Six years later, he sees it differently and helps others find their own way forward.

Aanpak

Direct and warm at the same time. He reflects what he hears and keeps asking questions until the real sticking point becomes clear.

Tips van Daniel

  • Write down three things each day: what happened, what I felt and what helped.
  • Ask one person to support you, so you don't have to carry it alone.
  • Make the first step so small that failing is almost impossible.

Voorbeeldgesprek

Do you think this will ever go away?
Honestly, I didn't think it would. What did happen was that it became smaller and I became stronger. That's not the same as it disappearing, but it makes a huge difference.
What was the turning point for you?
When I stopped pretending it wasn't that bad. From then on, I could ask for the kind of help that actually suited me. What's stopping you from doing that right now?
