Testimonials
I have always been a curious person, and am a lifetime teacher myself. Rien’s teaching style is among the most heartwarming I have ever seen.
- Leonard Lukin, M.A. Professor of English, Tacoma Community College
With an idea to synthesize research from leading academics and practitioners, Rien aims to change the professional world with a practical approach. An academic at heart, Rien has spent many years pursuing a field difficult to describe. Starting with Contemplative Psychology, Rien not only pursued additional institutional education, but he broadened his spiritual and emotional intelligence through ongoing study and research. Throughout this process, his interest has only intensified – teaching courses, co-founding community organizations, and beginning his PhD studies. Building on this experience, beginning in 2008, he pursued approaches to communicate what he had learned in a concise and practical manner. From this effort, he has developed programs I hope to sit in on soon. Rien is truly a unique person; with a depth of knowledge, charisma, and enthusiasm he never fails to inspire.

I have been training on Rien’s emotional intelligence programs for a few months now. He has a talent for communicating a positive shift in experience in a way that almost anybody can understand. These programs are ideal for individuals who want to make a conscious change in their lives for the better. If you are looking for cutting edge emotional intelligence coaching, and a presenter that can render the complex simple, you have come to the right place. Really a fun guy to work with!

Rien has an intellectual acumen and attention to detail has been a tremendous boon for Harbor Wellbeing. He was able to assess our needs and provide solutions efficiently and conscientiously. As a presenter and teacher, he is engaging, humorous, and skilled at keeping wandering learners pleasantly on track. I enthusiastically recommend him for a variety of consulting roles, and believe his adaptability, strength, and obvious warmth and concern for others will make him not only an excellent candidate, and also an ascending leader in the next generation of executive consultants.
