Which option is right for me: an e-book, an initial consultation, or coaching?
Not every type of assistance is suitable for every stage. Here, we'll help you determine which format is right for your current situation.
You’ve realized that something needs to happen. But what, exactly? Read a book, seek out a conversation, or book a session right away? Even making this choice can feel like yet another issue that’s overwhelming you.
That’s why here’s a clear guide on when each option is a good fit—and when it’s not.
In short
E-books, initial consultations, and coaching are tools for different stages. Choose the one that fits where you are right now. You can always switch later.
To get started: the e-book
The e-book is ideal for the stage when you’re just beginning to explore the topic. Perhaps you need some context first and aren’t quite ready for a conversation yet. In that case, take some time to read it on your own and understand what’s happening with you right now.
The book provides a framework. Within it, you can assess your situation and plan your first steps without any external pressure.
If you need clarity: the initial consultation
People come to the initial consultation because they sense that something isn’t right, but can’t quite put their finger on it. Some want a professional assessment. Others are unsure which path is right for them.
An initial consultation isn’t the start of therapy. It’s an assessment. Afterward, you’ll have a clearer sense of where you stand.
For the journey ahead: coaching
Coaching is the right choice once you know that something needs to change but can’t make progress on your own. You’ll receive regular support and gradually build a sense of relief.
Don’t expect a “how-to” guide in conversation format. Coaching is a structured process in which you reflect and work on specific areas of your daily life.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I start with the e-book and book a consultation later?

What if I don’t know what I need?
Then it’s best to start with the initial consultation. That’s exactly what it’s for: working together to figure out what’s right for you.
