Summary
With a Doctorate in Psychology, I specialize in empowering individuals, advocating for human
rights, and driving meaningful impact through collaboration with select NGOs. My extensive
experience spans both corporate environments and private practice, where I have honed
expertise in evaluating organizational culture, analysing team dynamics, and enhancing business
performance and success. My professional journey, which includes working with large
corporations and managing my own counseling practice, has cultivated a holistic approach to
leadership development, incorporating life coaching, performance enhancement, neuro-linguistic
programming (NLP), and trauma management or debriefings.
Additionally, my expertise in equine psychotherapy and Emotional Intelligence training enriches
the services I provide, fostering personal growth and strengthening organizational culture.
Guided by a passion for empowering professionals, I am committed to consistently delivering
exceptional value and unwavering support to clients.

As Maya Angelou once said, "I’ve learned that people will forget what you said, people will forget
what you did, but people will never forget how you made them feel." This sentiment aligns
deeply with my own ethos, as I strive to create impactful and lasting impressions in every
interaction.
