About me
My name is Sharon Blijd, the owner of Ibalansz. More than six years ago I started my company, Ibalansz, because I want to help people like you in improving your relationship with yourself and/or with others.
I was born and raised in the Netherlands and am a Surinamese descent. I am married and am the mother of two teenagers. Although I am not a morning person, I really enjoy walking in the morning.
In the summer you can find me on a terrace with a glass of wine and in the winter I like to watch movies and play games with my family and friends.
Professional
For years I have worked in Youthcare. I am a qualified coach. Within Youth Care I have gained experience in working with clients from various backgrounds.
I am an advanced EFT therapist (Emotionally Focused Therapy), EFIT therapist (Emotionally Focused Individual Therapy), EMDR practitioner (in training) and I have completed the transcultural systems therapy training.
I work from my Christian beliefs. My faith helps me to look at (seemingly) complex situations in relationships with an optimistic view veranderen in onderstaande tekst In my practice, I am inspired by my Christian faith, which gives me an optimistic view of (seemingly) complex situations. I believe in the power of hope, love, and trust to overcome challenges. It is my belief that everyone, regardless of background, beliefs or life path, is welcome in my practice. I see my role as a therapist as a supportive one, in which the involvement of religious beliefs in therapy is always done in consultation with the client. It is important to me that my clients feel heard, respected and understood, regardless of their worldview or worldview.
Through intervision and following relevant courses and training, I stay up to date in terms of knowledge. I learn from my colleagues and reflect on my way of working, so that I can become a better therapist
