Lydia Gassenaar – Proof of Being Coach

For those who want to reconnect with themselves.

With 24 years of experience in healthcare—as a nurse, in addiction treatment, as a mental health nurse practitioner (POH-GGZ), and as a psychiatric nurse—I've guided countless people on their path to recovery, insight, and inner balance. But true transformation sometimes requires more than just talking, protocols, or diagnoses. It requires presence. Awareness.

My practice was born from a desire to reconnect deeply with who I truly am. Not just from my head, but from my heart, my body, and the NOW. After eight years of development, I'm now ready to guide others.


My background allows me to understand the complexity of mental health issues and always see the person behind the diagnosis. Whether it's anxiety, low mood, overstimulation, trauma, or a feeling of being stuck in life, I offer personalized care, from the heart and with trust.

What you can expect from me:

A combination of professional expertise and deep inner work. In addition to my years of experience in mental health care, I work with powerful methods focused on awareness and transformation:

  • Mindfulness
  • ACT-therapie (Acceptance and Commitment Therapy)
  • Breathing
  • The Transformation Path
  • The Presence Process

These approaches help you release old patterns, feel through blockages and come home to yourself step by step. For whom?

Proof of Being is there for everyone who longs for peace, direction, and a genuine connection with themselves. Whether you're stuck in your emotions, have lost touch with your feelings, are struggling with stress or burnout, or simply long for more presence in your life, you are welcome just as you are.

Let the story drop from your head back down to your heart.
