Mieke Stapelberg

I'm Mieke, a certified coach with a master’s degree in clinical mental health counseling and a background in helping clients be their best selves. My coaching journey has certainly not been an ordinary one. Twelve years ago, I made the decision to pack up my whole life into one suitcase and move from South Africa to the US, where I now have a beautiful family and a career that I love and care deeply for. I started out as an actor in NYC (I even had a few small bit parts here and there on TV), but I quickly realized that what I adore more than being on stage is working with clients 1:1 and seeing them thrive! I strive to make each and every client I work with feel seen, heard, understood, and cared for.

You might ask, "So what does a coach do, anyway?"

As a coach, I support my clients in managing their own personal development by assisting them in identifying their goals and providing them with knowledge, skills, tools, and strategies to help them achieve those goals. All in a safe and confidential environment, from the safety of your own home.
My philosophy is that coaching is essential to a balanced life.

I work with the following:
Relationships
Career
Divorce
Infidelity
Life Coaching
Life Transitions
Marital & Pre-Marital
Men's Issues
Women's Issues
Obesity
Parenting
Peer Relationships
Self Esteem
Sexual Addiction
Spirituality (I am a meditation teacher)
Weight Loss

Please note: Although I am also a Clinical Mental Health Counselor, coaching is NOT therapy. If you are in Connecticut and looking for mental health services, please visit my psychologytoday.com profile to set up an appointment with me.
