Educational Approach
All of us have the resources and the potential within us to live our lives in the here-and-now according to our inner compass in connection with our authentic self.
Access to this natural formative force, which underlies the profoundly human need for creative expression, a healthy autonomy with simultaneous belonging, may have been lost to us in the course of our lives and affected our attitudes, feelings and behaviors.
The intention of my approach is to encourage people to rediscover their curiosity about themselves and others. During the collaboration we explore life`s energy that is being released in this process which in the past has often been bound to necessary adaptive strategies and the symptoms associated with them. Integrating this energy leads to real self-confidence and the creative living of a healthy life and fulfilling relationships.
