Therapy and life coaching in Nature
Resolve emotional issues, improve your mental health and increase your sense of well-being, all in a supportive and natural space.
Helen Edwards, psychologist and outdoor coach in The Hague
I’m a lover of people and a lover of nature. That, in essence, is what I’m about. Hence a study in psychology followed by training as an outdoor coach. I’ve had my own practice in nature since 2013.
Born in the UK and living in Holland since I was 22, I’m at home in both cultures. And I certainly know what it’s like to face the challenges of settling into a new country. It’s given me a wide breadth of experience and a real passion for personal growth.

“I have been coached by Helen for the past few months and it has had a profound impact on my wellbeing. Helen’s unique way of walking in the nature really helps me to dive deep into my own insecurities and feelings that I never realized. With her help, I’m able to find the key to open all the locks which removed blockages inside of me. I definitely recommend her coaching and believe it will help many people.r”

“I have been supported by Helen throughout most of 2020 and she has been the best coach one could wish for. An empathetic, level headed and calm person who is not shy to tell you, in a very kind and professional manner, that your brain is going bonkers and leads it back to rationality. A session with Helen is always fun, there is understanding and kindness, but also humour and the magic of nature just adds to your wellbeing. Helen gets your true nature out of you, so that you can follow the path that is meant for you. The best coach I have every worked with and I wholeheartedly recommend this wonderful person. ”

“Moving a few thousand kilometers to a new country to start a life with someone that has only been in your life for a short period of time adds to the complexity of a relationship, but also makes you question everything, your up-bringing, customs, etc. and for a long time I was hiding my “forgotten reality”, but also myself. If everything you have ever know gets taken away by a choice you make, it adds guilt and instability to who you think you are.
I knew that I needed help and that I needed to “find myself” again. Having the walking sessions with Helen was more than I could of hoped for. Helen provided me with the tools to help myself moving forward and gave me the believe to start trusting my intuition and myself again, after I had left my whole life behind to start again.
