A Calm, Personal Way
to Work With Sound Sensitivity

Omgaan met Geluid

What began as a course-based platform has naturally grown into a more personal way of working. Today, this work continues within Studio20, where I offer one-on-one support around selective sound sensitivity, also known as misophonia.

From courses to one-on-one support

Omgaanmetgeluid.nl started as a Dutch course-based platform for people dealing with sound sensitivity and sensory overwhelm. The intention was to offer insight, understanding, and practical tools in a clear and structured way.

Lived experience

I speak from lived experience. I am highly sensitive myself and have dealt with misophonia for many years. Along the way, I explored different therapies and ways of understanding what was happening in my system. These experiences shaped my own perspective on sound sensitivity.

I don’t see sound sensitivity as something to fix, but as a signal that invites listening, slowing down, and choice.

How I work now

That is why the focus has shifted from courses to one-on-one personal sessions. I work with people who notice that sounds and impulses trigger reactions such as fight, flight, freeze, or fawn, and who want to experience more calm, safety, and space in their daily lives.

Personal sessions

In these sessions, we slow down and gently explore what is happening in your system, at your pace. I work one-on-one through Studio20, offering a flexible and attentive space that adapts to what you need: conversation, reflection, creative inquiry, or simply room to breathe. The work is grounded, personal, and responsive.

Invitation

If sound sensitivity is affecting your well-being or daily functioning, you are warmly invited to get in touch.

With care,

Marianne de Kuyper

❝ With no doubt I would recommend you to others. I’d like to share with others that you are a really empathetic listener. If I had the opportunity, I would explain to others how much your work has helped me to overcome some of my fears and rediscover myself. I see how much you prepared for each session. You took notes all the time and you were 100% present and IN (!) the session with me. I really feel so grateful for our sessions, because you have helped me a lot. Thank you! ❞

❝ Marianne has been a great guide in starting and setting up the next phase of my life by clearing and reorganizing my apartment and (online) life. After a decade of accumulating stuff, my living space was in dire need of an upgrade. Moreover, my life felt cluttered and stuck and I was in need of a major change. Marianne did just that. She literally filtered everything I owned and had collected. After 2 weeks of hard work, my apartment was like new. It was like I had moved and was living somewhere new again. It was the best thing that could have happened to me, because after this cleaning and reorganization, my life took some amazing turns. I finally moved, after meeting the woman who is now the mother of our child. I'm sure Marianne's help and coaching was the beginning of it all. I highly recommend her services, energy and inspiration. ❞

❝As an expert by experience, Marianne is a great coach in the area of high sensitivity (HSP) and misophonia. I’ve had the opportunity to coach her in the past on the use of her voice and her business, so I know like no other what a wonderful, warm and understanding person Marianne is. The calmness she always emits is so incredibly comforting! In other words, working with Marianne feels very safe, comfortably familiar and above all enjoyable. So, if you are highly sensitive or suffer from misophonia and want to be coached in that respect, I definitely recommend you to contact Marianne.❞

❝ Marianne helped me become crystal clear about my qualities and challenges, my personality traits and past accomplishments. She also helped me define my goal, or goals, and break them down into actionable steps. She guides you intently through this process with her structured and consistent approach. She is a great listener and makes you dig deep and then just a little deeper. And her depth of knowledge is palpable every time you talk to her. She has really worked with the topics she supports you in. ❞

❝ Even after years of soul-searching, I was pleasantly surprised to come across Marianne´s self-help exercises that helped me realign with my direction and purpose at 67. The simple, straightforward coaching exercises emphasized the importance of reconnecting with my values and staying aligned with what truly matters. I am truly grateful for this resource that continues to inspire and guide me on my journey! ❞

❝ I regularly attended Marianne's yin yoga classes in the hotel Can Moragues and I have to say Marianne is a very sensitive and competent yoga teacher. Marianne takes into account the respective condition and health situation of the participants and gives individual instructions for doing the exercises in an optimal way. She also gave me mental help in a difficult, private situation and showed me how I could better process the appropriate situation with yoga exercises and meditation. I can fully recommend Marianne as a yoga teacher. It’s useful to understand some English in order to be able to follow her exercises optimally. ❞

❝ Luckily, I have had the opportunity to receive Marianne's guidance at her ‘of the grid’ retreat and it has been a fabulous experience. I admire Marianne's ability to adapt the exercise practice to the experience, physical and mobility conditions of her students, she always has alternatives, she is very caring, respectful and deeply empathetic. I especially like the fact that she starts with the search for the purpose of the session, finishes it by reviewing the objective and the sensations and physiological explanations of the exercises. I have attended both studio and outdoor sessions with her and I can't recommend her enough.❞

— Victòria Sancho
❝ I like the Yin Yoga with Marianne, because it is just the perfect thing for me as an elderly person. The movements are rather slow and she does a lot of stretching and that's just what my body needs. So, for me it's perfect and I like it. ❞
