"I thought Evelyn’s approach as a coach was simply amazing. She was EXTREMLY patient and understanding with my very busy schedule, and with the international time difference. She was very good at making me feel comfortable and setting a very open and free coaching environment. She also was very good at bringing laughter to the coaching session which really opens me up. She also was an excellent listener and had great powerful questions to challenge me. She always cared and was very non-judgmental. Honestly I could not have had a better coach to work with, I was truly blessed."

 "During the entire coaching process I felt well supported. It sometimes amazed me how much you understood from the few lines I had written down in my preparation form! During our conversations I felt you really listened to me and you were able to put in words what I meant (and thought I was saying). But your support went beyond the conversations. Whenever you had an interesting article, contact, or comment, you would not hesitate to provide the information. Therefore, it felt you were ‘involved’."

 "Evelyn did a wonderful job keeping me on track and giving me the tools I needed. She is very organized, listens well, and has lots of knowledge that she is more than willing to provide. The structures that she has set up were amazing; the structures alone helped me be more responsible for myself. I think you are a wonderful coach and I believe you will go very far!"

 "I expected from this coaching process feedback on my own thoughts on how to deal with issues. The support you gave me to meet these expectations was very well, thank you. You confirmed me in doing the right thing and helped me actually take action.

What supported me most was your strength of listening well and trying to relate to issues from own experience. Looking back over the whole coaching process, the highlight for me was the easy communication overall."

"Evelyn was helpful in clarifying my goals and provided great support throughout the coaching process. At times Evelyn was tough with me, which I needed, but it was always done with respect and genuine caring for my situation and for me as a person.

One strength that I found with Evelyn was her ability to question and clarify what I was saying so that the meaning became clearer for me. Another strength were her interpersonal skills. I felt very comfortable with Evelyn’s coaching style right from the start and throughout the process I felt that I had a friend as well as a coach. As someone who values connections, this was very important to me."

"She guided me and provided a positive enviroment for change. I feel we worked well together she is a very open communicator and I trusted her."
