Dutch former psychotherapist, bestselling author and educator who developed the Emotion Codex, a framework mapping eight stages of emotional awareness.
Vera Helleman spent over two decades working at the intersection of psychology, consciousness and energy work before distilling her Emotion Codex framework, which describes eight developmental stages from emotional unconsciousness to emotional mastery as a practical map for recognising patterns rather than a system of judgment. She has written several books, including The Power of Autism and Encyclopedia of Emotions, and is based in Etten-Leur, the Netherlands.
She teaches primarily through her year-long Emotion Mastery Program and free monthly online introduction sessions, and is a confirmed speaker at the "We are One Event" in Amsterdam in October 2026.
“I am a feeling being. I take in information by feeling, store information by feeling, remind people of how they feel.”Vera Helleman
