Review Mirjam Maëla

Review Mirjam by Marthe Walter (participant and author)

“I met Mirjam during a summer retreat. Mirjam was one of the three teachers that were present that retreat. I got to know Mirjam on a deeper level when she guided me through one of the workshops during the retreat. Mirjam makes sure that, whatever happens, you keep both of your feet on the ground. She guided me through my own palet of emotions, whilst keeping eye contact and asking questions. She handled everything that came up in a welcome and calming manner. Mirjam is a true artist when it comes to dealing with emotions and knows exactly what they need when they pop up. She is present, not only in care but also in aftercare. Mirjam keeps an eye on you, even when you don't see it. She is there when you need her, often before you realise that you do. She knows exactly when to step in and when to step out, and feels the difference between specific needs: attention, guidance, presence en love. She does this all in a very down to earth and most of all natural way, whilst being your equal and not your superior. She is honest, authentic and vulnerable in a way that invites you to do the same. Mirjam made me feel safe to open up to myself, her and others in the group. I highly recommend her as a teacher and a counselor.”
