He studied theology and educational sciences and started his career as a trainee spiritual counsellor at rehabilitation centre De Paltz. After completing his studies in educational sciences, he worked as a sociotherapist and trainer at mental health care institutions Fornhese and Zon &amp; Schild (GGZ Centraal), where he trained teams in methodologies such as solution-focused working, rehabilitation and recovery-oriented care.<\/p>\n<p>As the director of Feniks Talent and STEQ, Arjan led specialist centres for gifted young people experiencing mental health challenges and school dropout. He also worked as an adviser and trainer for organisations including Parnassia in The Hague, Humanitas DMH, GGZ Friesland and Phase 01 Recovery Support, contributing to the optimisation of care and team development.<\/p>\n<p>Over the past fifteen years, Arjan has focused primarily on supporting victims of psychological abuse, including people who were involved in closed groups such as cults. In this field, he works as an expert for organisations including Sektesignaal, FIER and the Dutch National Police.<\/p>\n<p>His approach is people-oriented, supportive and practical. He is inspired by, among others, Carl Rogers (client-centred therapy), Gabor Mat\u00e9 (trauma and addiction), Martin Seligman (positive psychology), Patricia Deegan (recovery-oriented mental health care) and Steven Hayes (Acceptance and Commitment Therapy).<\/p>\n<p>Alongside his professional experience, Arjan brings a personal perspective to his work. As a child of a parent with psychiatric challenges (<em>Kind van Ouder met Psychiatrische Problematiek <\/em>&#8211; KOPP), he grew up with a father struggling with depression. This experience made him aware from an early age of both the impact of psychological suffering and the power of recovery. The theme of KOPP is also addressed within this mental health training module.<\/p>\n<p>Arjan is involved in the development of class materials at the ACC and teaches several ACC training programmes.<\/p>\n<div class=\"tab-marker\" data-tab-titel=\"Details and prices\"><\/div>\n<h2>Details of the module Professional Coaching for Mental Health Challenges<\/h2>\n<dl class=\"opleiding-details\">\n<dt>Module:<\/dt>\n<dd>Professional Coaching for Mental Health Challenges<\/dd>\n<dt>Features:<\/dt>\n<dd>Live Online module (live sessions via Zoom)<\/dd>\n<dt>Duration:<\/dt>\n<dd>8 sessions of 2 hours each<\/dd>\n<dt>Participation in online sessions:<\/dt>\n<dd>To participate in online sessions effectively and with focus, we expect the following from students:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>You attend the online classes using a laptop or computer (not a mobile phone).
