Step by step out of crisis

Kirsten Tofahrn is an experienced and very creative coach. What amazed me most is her creative way to deal with emotions. Situations which I thought were hopeless were a challenge for her to find a spirited and fitting solution while always staying on solid ground.

It was not about dreaming away but finding ways that are possible to implement in daily life. Her suggestions reconcile with life, staying simple and natural, relating to and relaxing with people, doing normal things with special attention, experiencing life anew with small things. In that way she helps one to slowly step by step move out of the crisis, in one´s own time and with one´s intuition recovered. I recommend coaching with her very much. Petra Powels

Assistance after divorce

A while ago my boyfriend and life partner split up from me very unexpectedly. Within seconds my world fell apart and I was in shock. I spent a sleepless night, connected with doctors and psychologists, only to receive sleeping pills or a far away appointment. I remembered Kirsten Tofahrn; she was leading a therapeutic group process in Holland. With a lot of clarity, direct, loving and with humor she was guiding me through this difficult time. I could trust her completely.
In less than  two days  I felt alive again, my pain was still there but she managed in a very short time to arouse my curiosity for life again.
The love for life was awaking again. My pain became part of a great adventure. In the beginning I was doubtful if this feeling would stay but there was no reason for it, it stayed like that. I am still thankful for her support.
I wish for many people to be able to work with her. Susanne Grädler

Impartial and crystal clear

I met Kirsten Tofahrn in a very difficult personal situation. She was able to mediate in my relationship in a very empathetic way, neutral and crystal clear. Both sides felt heard and acknowledged. I realized again that she has a lot of experience as a therapist which she uses in her coaching work.
At the same time she is very mature and wise so that her suggestions are not theoretical teachings but realizable. With individual sessions as well as with leading groups she is empathetic and has great awareness. I can recommend her warmly to everybody who is on the search. Anja Laudowicz-Bodi

Getting to know myself

I totally recommend coaching with Kirsten. She is so positive, encouraging and consistent. With her support, I’ve achieved things I never thought possible for myself. I’ve learned things about myself that I didn’t know, and I didn’t even know that I needed to know! I have so much more confidence that I can do my best and become more me. And there’s another benefit I hadn’t expected; coaching  with Kirsten takes your personal struggles out of your personal relationships and that’s really liberating. You have an expert’s support and ideas to deal with things that otherwise can preoccupy you and drag you down. Try it and see!

Back on my feet

I'm having more fun than I can ever remember having… I'm pretty sure that I wouldn't be where I am now if it hadn't been for my sessions with you, because you really got me primed for moving....and taking a risk! Thank you so much for helping me get my life back. Anne Longmuir

Creativity and humor

Kirsten Tofahrn was working with me leading weekend seminars and therapeutic programs. During this I appreciated especially her sympathy for people and her ability to see what they needed.

As a Coach she has an exceptional talent in combining her creativity and the emotional work. Personally I appreciated her lightness and the humor that was shining through everything she was doing.
Good luck with the good work. Marion Hübner 

Stress turning into possibilities

I received coaching from Kirsten during 2004 for a personal issue on which I had been having difficulty in making an emotionally-committed decision. Kirsten provided the blend of support, empathy, engagement and challenge which I needed in order to make the change, and which helped me to address the mental block which I was allowing to stand in my way. As a result I have been able to take a significant step.

Kirsten was both disciplined and structured in her approach, and yet appropriately flexible to respond to me as an individual. She was efficient in her preparation for our sessions and she helped me to plan and followed up on action points, communicating easily and openly with me.

She listened actively and reflected back to me relevant points I had made and positions I had taken in a way which constructively helped me to assess my progress and to continue to move forward.

Her positive outlook, her perception, her broad view of possibilities and her encouragement to me to create options and act on them were key to my success in achieving my goal. Christoph Dornbusch
