‘If only it were that easy!’

Hi, my name is Felix Müller…

…and I am 58 years old, happily married for over 30 years and the proud father of two grown-up children. And as a cognitive behavioural coach, I help people to finally achieve a goal: such as saying no more often, having more time for the family or being less stressed.

I got to know cognitive behavioural coaching during my three-year coaching Master’s studies in England and experienced its effectiveness ‘first hand’: thanks to this approach, my wife Nicole found her way back to a happy and relaxed life after two burnouts, severe depression and five months in hospital.

Based on this impressive experience, I decided to focus my coaching on helping other people to change their lives by releasing blockages. I only coach online so that my clients can easily and flexibly choose when the coaching fits into their often busy calendars.

What distinguishes cognitive behavioural coaching from other coaching approaches?

Many coaching approaches – such as solution-orientated short-term coaching – work primarily with the client’s conscious thoughts and goals and can achieve quick and good results in many cases. However, there are situations in which deeper, subconscious blockages hinder the change process. These blockages are often caused by deeply rooted, subconscious patterns (based on personality, abilities, environment, beliefs, values, perceptual distortions and fears, among other things) that the client is not aware of and are therefore difficult to access using conventional approaches. This is where Cognitive Behavioural Coaching (KVC) comes in: It works specifically with the subconscious mind to identify and resolve the true causes of these blockages. Using special techniques, KVC helps to re-evaluate subconscious behavioural patterns and facilitate sustainable change – even where other methods reach their limits.
