I’m Cathy Dirkx, a certified intuitive life coach, hypnotherapist, and yoga instructor. As the founder of Coaching & Yoga avec Cathy, I’m passionate about helping creative women unlock their true potential and lead purposeful, abundant lives.

It was during my years mentoring future yoga teachers that I realized my calling as an Intuitive Life Coach. In 2020, I became certified as a life coach, combining my yoga expertise with my innate ability to guide others.

In 2024, I expanded my toolkit with hypnotherapy to offer even more effective and efficient results for my clients. Through Coaching & Yoga avec Cathy, I blend coaching, hypnotherapy, and meditation to create transformative experiences. My approach helps clients gain clarity, overcome obstacles, and achieve their dream goals.

I offer a range of services tailored to meet the unique needs of my clients, including 20-minute Zoom Yoga Nidra Bliss Classes, engaging yoga nidra workshops, and the highly sought-after Dream Whispering Experience course. Additionally, I provide hypnotherapy and reiki sessions to support holistic well-being. My one-on-one coaching sessions range from short, focused meetings to in-depth, transformative 6-month programs. I also offer Yoga Nidra certification for students and yoga teachers, delivering comprehensive training in this deeply relaxing practice.

In addition to Yoga Nidra, I incorporate hypnotherapy and reiki into my practice. Through hypnotherapy, we work on eliminating blocks and addressing fears that may arise during life changes. Reiki complements this by promoting healing and balancing energy. Through Sankalpa, I help clients uncover their deepest aspirations and create actionable plans to manifest their dreams. I provide practical tools to overcome fears, address limiting beliefs, and cultivate a peaceful mind, supporting a comprehensive journey toward fulfillment and well-being.

My holistic approach not only helps individuals achieve their goals but also fosters a happier, more fulfilled life. I’ve successfully certified hundreds of Yoga Nidra teachers and empowered countless individuals, from rock musicians rediscovering their passion to yoga teachers launching their own studios. The heartfelt testimonials from my clients highlight the transformative impact of my work.

As the driving force behind Coaching & Yoga avec Cathy, I’m dedicated to supporting you on your personal journey of self-discovery and growth. Together, we’ll unlock your true potential and guide you towards a life filled with purpose and abundance.

Looking to the future, I envision expanding my reach and impact, continuing to inspire and empower women worldwide. By blending the transformative power of yoga, coaching, hypnotherapy, and reiki, I aim to make a lasting difference in the lives of countless individuals. My unique approach is revolutionizing how people approach personal growth, purpose, and fulfillment, guiding them towards a life filled with authenticity and abundance.

I am a certified Intuitive Coach, Hypnotherapist, E-500 RYT Yoga Instructor (200 hr from American Power Yoga & 300 hr from Laughing Lotus NYC), and Yoga Nidra Bliss teacher training director. My qualifications also include certifications in Ayurveda, Restorative Yoga, Yoga & Social Equity, Energy and Subtle Body, and Yoga Nidra. Additionally, I am a Usui Reiki Master.
