Recovery isn’t a destination, it’s a journey.
If you’ve landed here, chances are something isn’t right. Maybe you feel stuck in a life that no longer feels like your own. Maybe you’re tired—of the cycles, the chaos, or the silence. You’re not alone. And more importantly, things can change.
We work with people who are ready to take a different path—people who are willing to be honest, who want to understand where it all began, and who are ready to build a life that makes sense to them. Together, we create structure, purpose, and a plan that feels achievable. No judgment. No fluff. Just real, grounded recovery support.
You don’t have to walk it alone.
I am not here to tell you what to do—we are here to walk with you while you figure it out. Our coaching style is rooted in both lived experience and certified training. I've been there. Addiction ran through my life long before I built a successful career in trading across Amsterdam, Paris, and London. Beneath that success was always the same pattern: a deep need to belong, to feel seen, to escape.
It wasn’t until I faced the impact of early trauma and started speaking with rigorous honesty that real change began. Now we help others do the same.

Lived Experience

Professional Expertise
Qualified CCAR Recovery Coach
Holistic Approach
Emotional, behavioural, and practical coaching
Compassionate support
Non-judgmental, confidential, tailored to you
You are not a problem to be fixed. You are a resource to be empowered.
At 2 A Better Life, we don't see the client as an object of treatment—we see you as the most valuable resource in your own recovery. Our role is to listen with intent, to understand the changes you want to make in your life, and to help build a structured path toward achieving them.
Together, we create a framework that supports real, lasting change based on the understanding of what you value as recovery and what it means to you. One that’s grounded in your goals, your pace, and your reality.
We don’t prescribe—we collaborate. I work alongside you to source, structure, and tailor the tools you need to meet the objectives we identify together. Whether you're navigating early recovery, seeking long-term accountability, or building a completely new chapter, our approach adapts to you.
Everything begins with trust, honesty, and a commitment to moving forward—on your terms.
