Welcome

Welcome to the official website of Dineke van Kooten — a place for reflection, inspiration, and growth.

On this website, you will find a rich collection of articles exploring topics that touch the core of what it means to be human. Whether you are curious about the inner world of the gifted, navigating the complexities of relationships and sexuality, or seeking a deeper understanding of personal and spiritual development, you are in the right place.

What you’ll find here:

• Highly Gifted— Insights into the emotional and existential experiences of highly gifted individuals.
• Relationships — Honest reflections on intimacy, connection, and the dynamics between partners.
• Sexuality — A progressive look at the role of sexuality in our relationships and our gender identity.
• Men & Women — Thoughts on gender, difference, and mutual understanding.
• Personal Development — Guidance for those seeking to grow in awareness, deepen self-understanding, and live with greater authenticity.
• Spirituality — Explorations of the soul, meaning, and the sacred in everyday life from a Jewish-Christian perspective

This site is not about quick fixes or ready-made answers. It is an invitation to think, to feel, and to engage with life more deeply. I write from my personal experience as well as from my professional background in coaching, theology, and psychology.

Thank you for being here. I hope you find words that resonate — and perhaps even transform.

Warm regards,
Dineke van Kooten
