Many years ago, I started working on myself. Now, I’m equipped and able to help you embark on a transformational journey. This is a short version of my story…
After 20+ years in Corporate America, and as a divorced single parent with unfinished emotional baggage, I felt stuck, stagnant and overwhelmed. I needed to believe there was more to life and embarked on a personal development quest that completely changed my life.
I tried everything...from Cognitive, Gestalt and Jungian therapy to experimental counseling. I studied various spiritual beliefs, enrolled in every workshops I could find and processed deep inner child work. I felt like Alice in Wonderland falling through the rabbit hole…a whole new world emerged, an inner landscape where I found the missing piece: myself.
Eventually, I landed at The Gestalt Institute of Atlanta where I spent several years as Director, Gestalt Practitioner and NLP trainer before venturing out on my own.
Now I am here, an international coach, teacher, trainer, speaker, workshop facilitator and awareness practitioner... I love guiding people on their transformational journey, whether individually or in groups. The tools and techniques I teach are ones that I have learned, experienced or witnessed myself.
My credentials include Certified Gestalt Therapy Practitioner, Certified Master NLP Practitioner & NLP Practitioner, Registered Business Coach, Sacred Healing Minister, and I hold a degree in Human Services & Social Work. The style I use is a unique combination of the above modalities, mixed with a dash of mindfulness, a pinch of spirituality and a healthy dose of intuition.
As a life-long learner, I spend much of my time on personal development, writing and being active in my community. Growing up in Sweden with Croatian roots served me well; I’m multi-cultural with expanded view points and speak several languages, including body-language (my super power).
