Meet Your Therapist & Coach

Hello and welcome.
My Journey of Resilience and Empowerment
My name is Gijs VAN BREUGEL (yes indeed, Dutch from origin, and living in France), and I am the heart and soul behind this space of transformation and growth. At 52 years young, my life has been a tapestry of entrepreneurial ventures and deep personal experiences that make me uniquely equipped to guide you on your journey to well-being and success.
As a lifelong entrepreneur, I’ve ridden the highs and lows of building businesses from the ground up. I know firsthand the exhilaration of success and the weight of responsibility that comes with it. My path has not only been about leading companies but also about being a primary health-caregiver, balancing the demands of work with the profound commitment to family.
This dual role has taught me the importance of resilience, the power of adaptability, and the necessity of self-care. It was through my own encounter with professional burnout and depression that I discovered the transformative potential of positive psychology. I faced the darkness of mental exhaustion and emerged with a renewed purpose: to help others navigate their challenges with strength and hope.
I’ve turned my pain into my passion, and it has led me to establish an online coaching and therapy business that reaches clients across the globe. My practice is a reflection of my belief in the boundless potential within each of us, and my approach is rooted in authenticity and compassion.
Fluency in English, Dutch, French, and German allows me to connect with a diverse clientele, breaking down barriers and creating a welcoming space for growth. Whether you’re dealing with the pressures of entrepreneurship, seeking balance as a caregiver, in need of ground-breaking psycho-therapy or simply aspiring to a higher quality of life, I am here to support you.

Hello and welcome.
This is me !
They call me the man with the eternal smile, a moniker earned through years of projecting joy and positivity. However, there came a moment in my life when I realized that behind this perpetual smile, I was also the man hiding behind the smile.
It’s an intriguing paradox — the external exuberance masking an internal struggle. The eternal smile became both my armor and my camouflage, concealing the complexities beneath the surface. In this realization, I embarked on a journey of self-discovery, peeling back the layers to uncover the authentic me.
This revelation taught me the importance of acknowledging and addressing the emotions behind the facade. It’s a reminder that even those known for their eternal smiles carry narratives that deserve acknowledgment and understanding. Through this journey, I’ve learned that true happiness arises not from hiding behind a smile but from embracing and navigating the spectrum of emotions that make us human.
