About me

I feel myself lucky, as I have always worked in environments where I could experience how liberating and inspiring it was to take care of my own development and feel responsible for it. My personal experiences and the positive changes they brought about in my life developed into a calling to practice coaching as my profession.

I do believe that building on the toolkit of coaching and my own experiences I can effectively support you in discovering and achieving your own goals, learning to set your boundaries, understanding your own reactions and those of the outside world, and finding your own inner resources.

Coaching

Coaching is a result-oriented, customised development process. As a coach I can assist you in examining your life situation or the challenges you are facing, and your related feelings and reactions, from several various perspectives.

During the course of our conversations you become more conscious of your perceptions, which helps you to discover new solution opportunities and acquire new skills. These conversations and revelations will also give you the strength to write a new story for yourself.

Services

The coaching process may cover areas of either one’s personal or professional life – and accordingly, I offer both life and business coaching to my clients.

Life coaching:

Life coaching will support you in discovering and acquiring the skills and abilities that may improve your quality of life in the long term, empowering you to tackle future challenges in an effective and responsible manner.

Business coaching:

Business coaching is a professional development process focusing on the improvement of professional performance. Business coaching may be provided to senior managers, middle managers and employees as well.

Testimonials

With Henrietta’s support I managed to revisit the ambitions that started to fade away over the years as I was gradually moving forward in my career. The coaching sessions gave me a focus and enabled me to redefine my earlier goals which had been neglected on the way. Our conversations even made it easier for me to arrive at more difficult decisions. With Henrietta’s help, her professional knowledge and her sociable and friendly personality I managed to find my plans which had vanished before.
– Péter F.
Each of the conversations with Heni was pleasant and natural. I did not find it difficult at all to open up to her. Without pushing me at all, she enabled me to recognise my inner barriers and define the steps required to move forward by myself. It became apparent very soon what the things that had prevented me from reaching my goals were. I also received help in figuring out what I wanted to do exactly; from the vaguely defined statement „I would like to do that” we managed to get to a point when I knew exactly when and what I would do to reach my goal. A real plan started to take shape, and that was when I really felt that my determination was strong, which greatly contributed to my enthusiasm as well. It was important that it was me who arrived at the conclusions and those were my ideas – the whole thing was something that was truly mine. I was really looking forward to each of our meetings, because finally I had the chance to talk about the things I liked to do, and I could share those positive experiences with Heni which made it important for me to reach my goal. And as a result, the whole planning process was enjoyable. It did not take many sessions for me to be able to clearly set the path (from scratch) that would take me forward. One would think that it takes a lot of work, whole days and whole weeks, but all I needed was to get some guidance with the help of a professional.

What happens during a coaching process?

Coaching is a development process tailored to the individual’s needs, nevertheless, it has a generally accepted scheme which sets a framework for the conversations and sessions. 1.) The first step of the coaching process is a preliminary session, the objective of which is twofold: Firstly, to agree on the practical issues (venue, online platform, timing and duration) and secondly, to establish a supporting...

The magic circle of influence

The magic circle of influence

At one of my previous workplaces a series of company reorganisations took place, also affecting my area of work. It is not a unique phenomenon that the way a company is managed and structured is all set out from above, by the “the region”, from “outside”. Often these reorganisations fail to take into account the local priorities, the strengths and the nature of the team’s dynamics. That’s a typical characteristic...

So what’s alive in you?

So what’s alive in you?

The phase when we identify the aim of the coaching process and the client tells about the issues that concern her / him is a very important step in the course of the sessions. It is about understanding the aim the client would like to achieve, the issue that needs to be resolved and the situation they wish to understand better and handle in a more conscious way. However, it is not always possible to articulate...

Switch your focus

Switch your focus

Last time I shared my thoughts about the extension of the span of your focus. Another equally exciting topic is the change of focus, that is, looking at a certain situation from several various perspectives. A couple of years ago I took a photography course (it is an amazing training course), where one of the tasks during our Composition Skills class gave me much more than a simple photographic experience. The task...

Energy flows where attention goes

Energy flows where attention goes

I used to come across this expression quite a lot, but to be honest, this idea and I – we just “passed by each other” for a long time. It was about one and a half years ago when I truly received its message and could experience its power. Energy flows where attention goes. Do I really focus on the things that matter, the ones which I would like to devote energy to? Do I really focus on anything at all, or is my...
