Your Question

You feel stuck, as a person, a couple, a family or as a professional, and you're looking for a breakthrough. You are suffering from grief, fear, depression, or a burnout and you want to find a way out. You want to make a change at work or in your relationship, but you are not sure how to do it.


An Integrative Approach

You know what to do, how to do it, and you're able to do it: behaviour, feelings, thoughts, body, image, and spirit, all are considered. You're able to get in touch with your inner world to discover your barriers as well as your sources of strength. You set a goal and a timeline and you get to work to resolve your inner challenges. My contribution: to help you discover within a short time what you need to do to make yourself feel better.
