Testimonials

  • “Christa, ek was raadop en bedruk toe iemand my verwys het na jou. Ek was redelik negatief om te begin met “coaching” aangesien ek reeds voorheen by iemand uitgekom het wat my redelik deur mekaar gemaak het. Na 3 sessies by jou het ek reeds begin beter voel. Jou agtergrond en mense kennis is ongelooflik. Ek het van die eerste sessie af volle vertroue in jou “coaching” styl. Ek het ook vriende van my na jou verwys en hulle voel dieselfde as ek. Welgedaan!!” - Dries Venter

  • “Ek gee glad nie om dat jy my naam gebruik nie. Jy was regtig 'n engel wat vir my gestuur was in 'n tyd wat ek niks meer geweet het nie. Jy het my gehelp om perspektief te kry wat baie nodig was. Ek doen baie beter omdat ek Karlien asosieer met chaos en as sulkes is dit vir my 'n manier om perspektief te kry op situasies waarin ek myself bevind. Ook die manier van kommunikasie van parent/child/adult help my geweldig baie. Ek vang my denke heel party maal wat ek dink "jy klink mos nou soos 'n kind" en dan treë ek op soos 'n adult. Ek het iewers daai les gemis in my lewe en jy het dit vir my geleer. Ek sal nooit ooit vir jou genoeg kan dankie sê nie. As ek jou ooit kan help met enige iets is jy welkom om op my knoppie te druk. Ek sal jou graag weer wil sien just to touch base, jy is 'n besonderse individueel. Baie baie dankie.” -Lee

  • “Life Coaching dwing mens om jou realiteit vierkantig in die oë te kyk en om goed deuodagte besluite te neem oor wat jy daaraan gaan doen. Ek het geleer dat emosies, wat ons so naklik diep wegbêre omdat ons doodeenvoudig net moet cope, geconfronteerd moet word as ons heel die toekomst wil instap. Met Christa se caring, maar ferm leiding, het ek geleer dat ek, Ina, die mens, belangrijk is en dat ek gewond moet wees as ek besluite moet neem vir ’n nuwe toekomst. Ek het geleer dat die verleden, met sy goed en sleg, mooi en lelijk, derby is en dat my fokus op die nou moet wees, en op more, en die dag daarna en dit belangrijk is om elke dag “nuwe memories” te maak. - Ina

  • “Life coaching has changed the way I value myself and treat the people around me. Before I started my life coaching sessions with Christa van Onselen, my life was in chaos and it felt like I had no control over the people and issues I faced daily. With her guidance, I have been able to adapt my thinking and find solutions through a series of straightforward questions and complete honesty. I cannot emphasise enough how much her services have benefitted my life.” - Michelle Lombard:

  • "Life coaches aim to motivate, offer emotional support and create confidence in their clients... Many life coaches focus on creating a new life path in order to achieve goals, whereas therapy sometimes looks into emotional resolutions to past problems in order to move forward. This very description of the difference between a life coach and a Psychologist is why I prefer to rather consult with a life coach. Christa van Onselen has counseled me for nine years. I have been diagnosed with Bipolar Disorder since the age of eighteen. Before seeking professional counseling, I was extremely insecure in myself and had severe self-doubt. Obsessive thoughts consumed me. I was immensely indecisive and always seeked everyone else's opinions, being left totally confused and swayed by others opinions. This hindered my professional career as an artist and in my daily life. Christa instilled in me the gift of self-confidence which is a gift no one can take away from me now. Through providing reading material, creating drawings to get her viewpoint across so that I grasp it better because I am a visual person. Giving me "homework" to do and always treating me as a unique, significant person she has given me coping skills to deal with my hinderences. Life coaches focuses on improving the spiritual, emotional, physical and mental well-being of a person.Christa van Onselen far exceeds this definition! She will not improve your life. She will remould your life forever! “ - Anonymous

  • “The first time I started seeing Christa was when I was in grade 11. I needed advice in regards with what I wanted to do when I finished school. My first session with her was insightful and she broadened my horizons instantly. I am currently 21 years of age and I find it highly important to see her a few times a year, minimum. Keeping your body in shape is important, but I like to think that keeping your well being in shape is just as important, and I only started realizing this over the years I have known Christa. She put things in perspective and do not expect walking out of a session with Christa feeling the same way you did when you walked in. You will make progress whether you like it or not. She listens, analyses, put things in perspective and helps you where help is needed, and this is done in a considerate way without making you feel uncomfortable or incompetent. I am thriving and I would truly like to thank Christa for contributing to my young adulthood. “ - Zelswa Bezuidenhout
