Ilse Gevaert

Ilse Gevaert is a highly skilled psychologist and coach with expertise in trauma, narcissistic abuse, resilience, giftedness, and neurodiversity (Autism and ADHD). Originally from Belgium, Ilse continued her education at prestigious institutions such as Harvard and Cornell, where she obtained leadership certificates that have informed her practice. Growing up without a left arm, has taught her resilience and self-acceptance. She refused to be a victim of her circumstances and chose instead to see her prosthetic arm as a symbol of strength and resilience, a reminder that she is capable of overcoming any obstacle that comes her way. She learned to adapt and thrive, finding creative solutions to everyday challenges and never allowing anyone to discourage her from pursuing her dreams.
