It Is More Than Just Training...
We are delighted to be offering a 2-year Training to become a ´Gupta Program Coach´, and there is a real demand from our clients for more coaches at the moment, with many Coaches having waiting lists. This course is more than just a training. You start on a personal journey that deepens your understanding in healing yourself and assist others in their healing. An important part is self-experience and bonding with your fellow Trainees. The training will unfold the core of the issues that are important in healing; first in your own life and then in working with others. Following the Gupta Program ourselves made us deeply aware of what is needed for people with chronic illnesses. We made the Training flexible so you can design your own tempo to follow most of the parts of the Training, determined by your background and capacity to learn.
If you are interested in joining the 3 levels Training, please watch the video above that contains a lot of introductory information. If you still have questions, you can have a 20 minute chat with Fenna or France to pose questions and together we can explore if this Training fits into your life. You can contact Frances at [email protected] to arrange this 20 minute chat

Your Supervisors
Fenna van der Vijver
I work as a body-oriented trauma psychotherapist in my own practice since 1990 (certified at the Free University, Amsterdam, Netherlands) and also as a Gupta Coach since 2008 and developed the Gupta Program Coach Training where my role is Trainer and Supervisor.
Since last year I do not take on any new clients but I do continue to work with the clients I know and those that come back for a deepening of their process.
I have been working with the quantum physics laws in groups since the beginning of 2018 and I followed the Masterclass of Lynne McTaggart in intention sending this year. I think Intention sending has an important future for the world and especially for persons with chronic illnesses that are misunderstood often in regular medicine. My goal is to start this year with ´Power of 8 groups for intention sending´ for clients with chronic illnesses. Research shows such positive results!
I myself had CFS for 11 years and therefore I understand the process of chronic disease deeply. One of the major things I learned is that every illness brings you a chance to deepen and clarify your journey towards yourself and so to freedom. (¨the longest journey is the journey from the head to the heart¨ is a saying that I fully subscribe ). The most important thing for me in healing is to befriend your illness and go way back into your history to get to the core of the origin of your patterns that have blocked your natural flow of life force energy. And blocking your energy flow can lead to illnesses.
I live in Spain with my partner and I enjoy life while growing towards retirement. I have 2 children and 3 grandchildren who all enrich my life in a deep joyful way. Mainly because of the way I look at life, at situations and at people I feel deeply grateful for my life.
I work from a holistic viewpoint so my view is that you have to grow in awareness on all levels of consciousness to really heal yourself and reach your own freedom and enjoyment of the mystery of life on this planet. So the spiritual awakening of the client/coach plays an active role in a certain stage of the healing process. I work in a psychodynamic way using techniques like breathing awareness and working with the senses, mindfulness, meditation, bodywork and art forms like drawing and sculpting, The Work of Byron Katie, nonviolent communication, family constellations, working with re-scripting and Gestalt techniques and spiritual awareness.
Aspects of all of these tools we brought into the 2 year GP Coach Training.
I give workshops in self-development and how to manage your energy problems in multiple practical ways too like light therapy, diet, building up ´process healing movement´, learning about circadian rhythm and hormeses etc. I love to create for clients the opportunity to go really deep into their consciousness to reconnect to their true selves. We all know that often means a lot of pain to get there. But that is the journey to your own heart before you can identify with freedom!
I love my work, my journey, my life and accept all it brings to me!! And an important part is my dedication to the Gupta Program Coach Training!
