Approach

Integrated and Multilevel

"Let no one ever come to you without leaving better and happier. Be the living expression of God's kindness: kindness in your face, kindness in your eyes, kindness in your smile".
Mother Teresa

I am passionate about empowering people through processes of change, growth and transformation. This, especially in situations where old patterns and hurt became obstacles in living one's best life.

I enjoy working with a variety of situations. An integrated approach of different theoretical models and techniques (supported by empirical evidence), that would serve each individual the best, is a priority.

Interventions that are solution focused and empowers with the necessary impact, remain my priority
