I was completely down for a while due to various setbacks in life, and thanks to Joost, I have created peace and space in my head again. The conversations were pleasant, and thanks to Joost, I have learned to deal better with my insecurity and problems. Thank you, Joost, you're the best!

I didn't expect the two-day relationship therapy to be such a success. It didn't feel like 'therapy' for a single moment. In plain language and with down-to-earth North Holland pragmatism (and without overly heavy conversations), Joost and Priscilla made us aware of why communication within our relationship doesn't always go the way we would like and how to handle this better. We really treat each other differently now. There is much more peace, relaxation, and openness. Thank you!
