Coaching Signature

My coaching style is informed by a 20-years fascination with how people grow and change. I researched and experiment several coaching approaches such as integral, neuroscience, neuro-linguistic programming, positive psychology, solution-focused, somatic, ontological and systemic coaching.

I view coaching as humanistic, relational and transformational. I believe it is first and foremost based on an unconditional positive regard for the clients (head, heart, body and soul) I partner with; it’s about honoring their individual wholeness.

Clients describe me as empathic and a deep listener; they have said that our coaching conversations were centered around them and their objectives; they valued my ability to instore trust and enable their confidence as well as my genuine concern to respect where they are in their journey while encouraging them to maximize their fullest potential.

As a coach, I hold safe space for you to connect with what matters deeply to you. I support you to set meaningful goals and make them your reality. Working with me can help you feel more energized and hopeful to explore what is possible.
