Hi, I'm Maria
from Austria.
​
I've been in the mindset coaching business for over a decade, helping entrepreneurs and high achievers align their true purpose with their everyday lives.
​
I am passionate about helping you gain clarity on where you are now and where you want to go. With over 180 mental techniques at my disposal, I've achieved outstanding results.
What could be more fulfilling than discovering your inner calling and stepping into your true purpose?
1:1 Personal Development Coaching
Individual coaching sessions focused on mindset, mental clarity, self-leadership, and personal development.
Coaching is goal-oriented, future-focused, and tailored to the individual needs of each client.
Sessions are conducted online and offered in structured coaching packages.
​
My coaching embraces a holistic approach, nurturing the energetic, emotional, and cognitive dimensions. By harmonizing these three aspects, individuals can achieve true balance and unlock their fullest potential.

Energetic

Emotional
Inner strengths are unleashed and reinforced, external goals are defined. This involves working on your inner attitude and includes topics such as: perspectives, beliefs, motivation, relationships, communication, boundaries, self-esteem, self-care, and much more.

Cognitive
These are mainly topics related to concentration, clarity, focus, memory, structure, time management, etc.
Purpose is the driving force
behind all great achievements.
When you have a clear sense of purpose,
nothing can stop you."
Joel Brown

About
Maria van Berkum
I am a Personal Development Coach with European academic training in mental coaching and psychology-based personal development.
For many years, I have supported individuals through phases of transition, decision-making, and personal growth, helping them develop clarity, inner stability, and strong self-leadership.
My work combines structured mental techniques with
reflective, values-based approach.
​
I work exclusively with psychologically healthy adults.
My services are coaching-based and educational in nature and do not involve psychotherapy, counseling, diagnosis, or treatment of mental health conditions.
My Motivation
Having navigated my own path through challenges and triumphs, I understand what it takes to find fulfillment and inner peace. My journey led me to study academic mental coaching at the University of Salzburg, complementing my spiritual beliefs with a humanistic approach. I believe every person has free will and is responsible for making the best of their life.
​
Human beings are body, soul, and spirit, and each aspect needs care. Only then can we achieve balance and maturity. Many people, despite their best intentions, struggle to find inner freedom and fulfillment because they focus solely on spiritual solutions. Life's challenges require a holistic approach.
​
I am dedicated to helping those who experience hardship and constant struggle. People who suffer in silence can find a way out by taking control of their lives and learning the basics of living happily. It's about how you feel in your heart, not how you appear to the outside world.
​
If you feel there's more to life despite your achievements, it's time to discover your true purpose. Life is short. Wouldn't it be wonderful to say at the end of your life, "I have lived my life", rather than wishing for a do-over?
​
For those with high ideals and big goals, now is the time to decide to live your best life. Contact me today for an introductory coaching conversation!

“Much of what I learned from you has brought me back to life, and I can truly say, as you told me at our last meeting: ‘Now I am firmly anchored in life again—with a radiant face.’”

“I wanted to redefine my own goals. In a very pleasant atmosphere, I was able to work these out step by step with the help of Maria van Berkum in a personal conversation. I really appreciated the motivating and competent support. The mental techniques I learned were adapted to my life situation. This means they can be applied in my everyday life. The versatile and constructive mental coaching has given me clarity.”
Angelika, 36
"I needed to make a change, but I didn't know how to go about it or where to start. My friend introduced me to Maria, and I felt comfortable and in good hands right from the start. I looked forward to every appointment, even if some of them weren't so pleasant. The tasks weren't always easy for me, but in the end I even exceeded my goals. Maria is a great listener and an amazing mental coach! I highly recommend her!"
