Client Testimonials

Thank you for giving me Life

The day I walked into Jacques retreat I was rock bottom, lost, full of guilt and shame. Had no outcome, had no idea where to begin and what my future holds.  I was broken and bruised in a black hole I didn’t know how to get out off.  Jacques showed me the way out it’s been five years later and him and his wife Hanneke till today has contact with me and share victory as I became to grow in myself and spiritually. Today I’m a Pastor and Life Coach helping others find the way out of the black hole.  A safe haven they created for me their friendship and not being judgmental, giving me the tools to use throughout my walk-in life, checking up on me, motivating me, and through their actions they have walked to talk.  The experience and knowledge Jacques has cannot be found in books.  My success in life has all to do with the impact he had on my life.

My question is this, “how do I become the best version of myself?”  Change is not the easiest task to embrace nor succeed in, especially when a PERSON’S paradigms prohibit him from realizing a solution or “to find the way out” to a place of rest, fulfilment and a better version of himself.   coach Jacques truter proved to me that this is very possible.  he has a positive, fun and exciting style of conversation.  He has a gift to listen deeply and reframe what he hears to bring clarity, simpleness and structure to the complex world inside me.  His tools are practical and easy to understand.  from my sessions with him I gained new courage, a sense of abundance, clarity, true identity and the ability to make better decisions for my life.  He is highly recommendable!

I would recommend coaching with Jacques Truter.  Jacques has a very caring and passionate heart for people. He doesn’t just instruct but meets you where you are and journey with you to become your true self.  Jacques is progressive-minded and is constantly looking for ways to improve his counselling approach.
In my journey with Jacques, he helped me to identify what believes and fears held me back in my life.  He helped me to reframe my thinking, believes and actions so that I could identify and clarify my goals and dreams.   Jacques had a major impact in my life!

I have know Hanneke since 2005 as both a friend and a counsellor. I have done many of their courses and more recently worked through the Love is a Choice material with her. We met on a fortnightly basis for about an hour over video call.  This allowed me time to process the relevant material. Hanneke was non judgemental in sharing my personal life story. With her help I was able to identify patterns in my life that was responsible for my default decision making. I was able to identify lies that I believe about myself and formed practical strategies to change the way I think about myself and see myself as a worthy woman the way God sees me.  Hanneke demonstrated excellent reflective listening skills. She was able to remember week to week what we discussed previously.  I can highly recommend her as a counsellor and course facilitator.

Hanneke takes you on a journey of self discovery in a safe and trustworthy environment to obtain full knowledge about who you really are which is essential to get inner peace.  She does this with applying years of experience and by listening for key elements that are a negative or destructive factor in your mindset. She lets you see things in the right perspective to restore your self worth that leads to self acceptance and ultimately inner peace.
