I think it’s important to say how I have happened to come into this work, leaving my scientific career and moving to a new pathway.
After experiencing the death of my husband at a young age, I went through a deep and long grief which turned out being an incredible nurturing and enriching experience. When I emerged from my “dark tunnel” I felt a deep calling, something that I could not ignore. I felt blessed and gifted by life and therefore the need to offer my inner richness and wisdom to help other people was irresistible.
And so...here I am now, driven by a strong passion to help and support people throughout their emotional struggles.
The beautiful surprise in doing this work is that I get to experience a profound joy and gratification.
