Building trust and connection.
Your team's time is precious and you want to provide support that contributes to lasting change for them and the organisation.
My work with teams gives them real tools and meaningful engagement. A break from the everyday, a chance to connect and learn new skills. I understand the challenges you face and can help them gain a new perspective.
A training on Eco-anxiety and resilience helps them deal with stress and overwhelm so they can deal with the ups and downs of the job more easily.
Climate Circles provide a space to share how they're feeling and connect with their colleagues so they don't feel alone in their struggles.
Nature-based activities help them unwind and remember why they got into this work in the first place. They learn new ways to be present and show up.
Team coaching and training around specific issues are available.
I'm here to support your teams. Because it's not easy when you work on the issues that matter.
Support teams when...
✔ They are struggling with eco-anxiety and resilience.
✔ Getting to know each other better would help in the everyday.
✔ Management styles are causing problems or labelled as toxic.
✔ Team members are off work with burnout and exhaustion.
✔ Not everyone has caught up with recent changes.
✔ You want to relax and celebrate the wins.
Building capacity
I offer workshops and training for teams, from Eco-anxiety and resilience training (with variations for other issues). They'll learn skills and practices to help them move forward.
A Climate Circle is a place to share eco-emotions, based on tried and tested models. We can feel like no-one wants to talk about the challenges sometimes.
Bringing teams together helps them feel seen and heard. They show more empathy for their colleagues as their struggles reflect their own. Outside the office, we connect on a more human level.
You can book a Climate Circle at your office or at PEOPLE PLANET PLACE in Brussels. I offer a series of Climate Circles for teams on the frontline of policymaking.
I am also an experienced moderator and facilitator for your meetings and events.
Book an Eco-anxiety and resilience training or Climate Circle or talk to me about your needs.
Teambuilding
Leave the hierarchy and office politics behind and learn new skills. Relax and connect with your colleagues as you gently stretch yourself with a teambuilding activity.
A Messy Creativity workshop is fun and helps us build trust in our own abilities so we can come up with creative solutions when we need them.
Forest bathing and nature art sessions reconnect us to nature, help us be more present and remind us why we do what we do.
A Back-to-basics food workshop teaches forgotten skills and builds confidence, helping us get to know our colleagues through culture and stories.
Tailored experiences inspire, unite and have a lasting effect on confidence and morale.
Book a standalone teambuilding or as part of a retreat. Talk to me about your needs.

Benefits for your team
Organisations I have worked with
Work with me.
I've been an active member of the Brussels environment community for over 25 years. I started out as an environment journalist then ran my own sustainability consultancy.
As a CEO and leader, I understand the challenges your teams face. I have worked with teams across the globe, spoken at international conferences and built great teams.
Today as a coach and trainer, I support environmental organisations and people making change in the world.
I'm a thought partner for individuals and teams who are working out their next steps, dealing with loss of meaning and motivation or wondering how they can have an impact without losing themselves.
I bring teams together to get to know each other, to bond over shared stories and experiences and ultimately to contribute to a better future for themselves, the organisation and the world.
My approach to resilience, eco-anxiety and ecotherapy is particularly appreciated by environmental teams.
Bring me in to support your teams through coaching, workshops, teambuilding and training, as well as 1:1 coaching and facilitation.
Let's be practical.
Is it only for environmental teams?
Not at all. If you want to provide original teambuilding events and support to your teams, let's talk. Everyone can benefit from this support.
Where do you offer team support?
The primary locations are Brussels and Flanders. Other locations are possible, please reach out to discuss. In Brussels, we work from PEOPLE PLANET PLACE in Ixelles. Online is also an option.
We don't want people to think we're sending them for therapy.
I get it, that would be inappropriate! We're not doing therapy and I'm not a therapist. We're providing supportive spaces for them to process the realities of working on challenging issues. And fun, relaxing teambuilding activities to bring them together and provide some relief.
How much does team support cost?
It depends on multiple factors so let's have a call or a coffee to talk about your needs. To give you an idea, a 3-hour Eco-anxiety and resilience training including a Climate Circle costs €3,000. Climate Circles are from €1,000 for a 1.5 hour session. Packages are available for multiple sessions as ideally we would offer a programme of regular Climate Circles. Half/full-day sessions and specific team interventions are tailored to your needs.
Why should we offer team support?
It's part of your prevention plan to support the health and wellbeing of your colleagues. This work is not easy and together we can support them.
Can I also get 1:1 coaching for my team?
Both team coaching and 1:1 coaching are available. Reach out to learn more.
Do your team members need personalised support? Many organisations work with me to provide 1:1 coaching sessions for their staff.
You want your teams to function well and for the people in them to be well. It's not always easy to balance the two. They've been told there's something they need to change or work on. Coaching can help.
I support people 1:1 with issues like stress, burnout, loss of meaning and motivation, feeling disillusioned at the slow pace of change, feeling like they don't have enough impact and when they're not sure about their next steps.
Together we work on strategies to promote greater self-awareness and understanding, to help them contribute their skills and gifts to the organisation without burning out. See Coaching for more information.
