Thea Adlim-Driessen

Thea Adlim-Driessen doesn’t just walk into a room—she transforms it. With presence, warmth, and energy, she has a way of carrying the whole room with her. Passionate about growth, Thea lives with intention, clarity, and authenticity. She is drawn to practices that sharpen both body and mind: hot yoga, kickboxing, and Human Garage work—and yes, even the occasional encounter with a wild bee. Because, like life itself, nature offers both its sting and its sweetness. Professionally, Thea is trained as an Arabist and Turkologist and is the founder, CEO, and senior coach/therapist of De Tussenmens. Her work lives at the intersection of mental well-being, culture-sensitive understanding, and family systems—navigating the complex journeys of parenting, identity, resilience, bonding, trauma, and loss. Her coaching approach integrates body and mind, inspired by Holobody and WildFit, blending mental clarity with physical vitality. In all she does, her greatest joy is helping others unlock their potential and embrace personal growth. As a Sufi, Thea is deeply rooted in the belief of the unity of all living beings.
