I had the pleasure of attending a training on informed psychological practices led by Esther van der Sande, and I cannot recommend it highly enough. Esther is an exceptional trainer who brings a wealth of knowledge and expertise to the table. Throughout the training, she was engaging, insightful, and approachable, and she created a comfortable and welcoming environment that facilitated meaningful learning and growth.

What impressed me most about Esther’ training was her ability to make complex psychological concepts accessible and applicable to real-world situations. She presented a variety of scenarios that allowed us to practice applying the skills and techniques we were learning, and she provided thoughtful feedback and guidance throughout the process.

Esther’s passion for her work was infectious, and it was clear that she genuinely cares about her clients and the impact she has on their lives. Her commitment to ethical and culturally sensitive practice was evident throughout the training, and she provided numerous examples of how to navigate complex ethical dilemmas and cultural differences in a respectful and effective manner.

Overall, I feel incredibly grateful to have had the opportunity to learn from Esther van der Sande, and I would highly recommend her training to anyone interested in the field of psychology, change and consulting. Her knowledge, expertise, and passion are truly inspiring, and I feel much more equipped to apply the skills and techniques I learned in my own organization.

I took part in the foundation course for Trauma Sensitive Yoga online. For me, this experience was one of the best I had ever in a course for healing and trauma, as it combined in a perfect way the knowledge and the personal experience through exercises. I do believe Esther is one of the most empathetic, highly experienced teacher in trauma, one can have and I consider myself lucky to have found her and done her course. She created a safe place for us, and a community environment although we were from different places of the world and online, She managed to plant a seed of a new perspective, a new way of thinking about how we approach people with trauma and ourselves, She broadened our capacity of understanding and our empathetic way of seeing things. She opened for us our interoceptions to listen, feel, and be in the moment. As a person working in the health care system and a humanitarian organization, I truly believe that more people from this field, nurses, doctors, social workers, employees in institutes, and humanitarian organizations should do this course as they can understand and feel more about how the trauma work and help more their patients and themselves. Thank you Esther for the life-changing lessons you gave us.
