Coaching for Dyslexic Adults Who Are Tired of Feeling Not Good Enough
Arije Aike De Haas
Dyslexia Coach
Dyslexia May Have Started the Problem. These Patterns May Be Keeping It Going.
01
Self-Doubt: You've achieved things, but you're still waiting to be found out.
02
The Inner Critic: Your inner dialogue sometimes sounds like a former teacher's.
03
Avoidance: The pressure to start and the fear of failing again arrive at exactly the same time.
04
People-Pleasing: You'd rather agree than risk being seen as difficult or not good enough.
05
Perfectionism: You spend enormous energy making sure no one sees you make a mistake.
06
Wearing a Mask: You've gotten good at looking like you belong. You just don't feel it.
These patterns can affect your confidence, relationships, career, and overall quality of life. The good news is that they can be changed.
I'm dyslexic myself, so I know these patterns from the inside. I also have an MA in education studies and have spent the last six years creating content on dyslexia that has reached close to nine million people.
WHAT I OFFER…
You’ll develop a healthier relationship with yourself. We reinforce positive beliefs, challenge negative thinking, and explore how self-compassion actually works. Over time, this new way of relating to yourself becomes more natural.
You’ll gain a clearer understanding of what you need based on your values and boundaries. We work on more open communication, where the mask is slowly lifted. Over time, you connect more genuinely with the people around you.
You’ll understand what’s keeping you stuck, including the part of you that’s not sure it wants to move. We run small experiments and explore structured ways forward. Progress stops requiring everything to feel safe first.
Dyslexics like you
Dyslexia doesn't just make reading hard. Over time, the struggle shapes how you see yourself. You start doubting yourself, avoiding mistakes, seeking approval, getting stuck in your head. These patterns affect your confidence, relationships, and career.
This is where coaching can help. We identify precisely what's keeping you stuck, where it came from, and practice new ways of responding.
You don't have to figure it out alone. Schedule a discovery call, and let's explore what it would take to move forward.
Working together is easy!
Book a free discovery session
In a 30-minute intake session, you and I will talk about what's holding you back and what you would like to change.
We work on the patterns, keeping you back
Through focused 1-on-1 sessions, we identify where your patterns come from, challenge the beliefs underneath them, and build new ways of responding.
You move through the world differently
Less held back by self-doubt, less dependent on others' approval, more able to take action on the things that matter to you.
