Educational Approach
Inherent in all of us are the resources and the potential to live our lives in the here-and-now according to our inner compass in connection with our authentic self.
Access to our life force, which underlies the profoundly human need for authentic self-expression, healthy autonomy while being connected simoultanously, may have been lost in the course of our lives and coloured our relationship with ourselves and others, our feelings and behaviors.
The intention of my approach is to encourage people to rediscover their curiosity about themselves and the world. During the collaboration we explore life`s energy that is being released in this process which in the past oftentimes was bound to necessary adaptive strategies and the symptoms associated with them. Integrating this energy opens new possibilities for real self-confidence and living a creative, healthy life and fulfilling relationships.
