Hello, I am a certified Life Coach from the American Transformation Academy. Since I discovered this job which has completely changed my life, I never stop giving the best of myself to motivate others to find their reasons for being and to support them in order to develop their development and their well-being.

The coaching that I offer you will allow you to work on the project of your life, whether personal or professional. Life coaching is used on several levels of the human person so that they discover their resources and their potentials. Life coaching is aimed at individuals in a situation of change, questions, doubts, difficulties, conflicts or who wish to improve their lives, better manage their emotions, prepare for a new situation, express themselves more in accordance with themselves, with their values and give a new meaning to their life.

See you soon!

Born following behavioral observation, neuro-linguistic programming (NLP) designates a whole set of techniques (dissociation, reframing, etc.) and methods aimed at promoting the personal development of the individual.

Neuro-linguistic programming is concerned with how humans function in a given environment, based on their behavioral patterns. Through a set of techniques and methods, NLP helps to change the way an individual perceives his environment. Indeed, each individual has a map of the world which is specific to him, and which is modulated by his beliefs and his conditioning. The purpose of NLP is to modify this map in order to enable the individual to achieve their goals more effectively. NLP therefore provides the necessary tools to make personal and structural changes, in order to create new potential for success.

Neuro-linguistic programming is primarily concerned with "How to make it work well?" Rather than "Why is this not working?" ". It suggests recognizing the behaviors we adopt when communicating, and then making changes if desired.

- “Programming” refers to the fact that we are conditioned by our environment which includes a system of beliefs and behaviors.
- “Neuro” means that these programs are encoded in our neural circuits.
- “Linguistics” refers to language, whether verbal or non-verbal.

Examples of benefits of Neurolinguistic Programming:

-Improvement of the mother-child relationship
-Improved performance and decreased anxiety
-Improvement of psychological difficulties and quality of life
(..)

The objective of this training: to target the tools which will support your communication, your image, will help you to decipher your interlocutor (...) to better achieve your objectives.

Thus, after having exchanged with you about the essential blockages that you encounter, targeted areas for improvement, your objectives (...), pragmatic tools, techniques & methods will be put in place based on the initial data. Combined with these theoretical elements, their implementation will follow (for example, by filmed simulations or at the end of the session in real life).

Course of a session: in conversational form, the practitioner identifies the problem and determines the objective with the client by asking a set of questions. He directs his questions towards solutions rather than the story that generated the situation.

Then according to his practice, the practitioner uses the tools at his disposal in order to remove blockages and promote behavioral change, while deciphering the communication of the other as well as his own, thanks to specific NLP tools.

THE PRACTITIONER
Trained at the Grande Ecole post-preparatory classes & Ivy League University in the United States, our consultant teacher trainer has specialized and worked for more than 17 years, in Europe and North America, in the field, in renowned international public and private establishments, regularly speaking in forums and conferences, and also offering personalized INDIVIDUAL support, with pedagogy and meticulous methodology as the watchwords.

➤ Being a good manager is also being a good communicator. After all, a strategy can only be put into practice if you show yourself capable of interacting with your employees, of being a source of inspiration for them and of listening to their concerns. Unfortunately, not all managers naturally excel in this role and their difficulties in asserting themselves as true leaders is often attributable to their difficulties in communicating.

➤ The objective would then be to explore together the areas of improvement in terms of communication know-how. And managing effectively requires specific and advanced know-how.

➤ In fact, managerial communication corresponds to the interactions between the management of the company and the organization and more specifically, between the manager and his team. This executive is in charge of transmitting information and directives from higher hierarchical levels, supporting internal communication, distilling messages related to his own management to obtain the commitment of his team, all while transmitting a message effectively.

➤ This exercise can therefore be tricky: this is why it is important to choose the right mediator in order to be well supported, not only to be understood by those around him, but also to carry out his mission.

➤ What to communicate? When ? Whose ? These questions will find an answer in the consistency of the actions undertaken. Good managerial communication will thus aim to exchange / dialogue effectively with its employees, maintain a close link between the different layers of the company, bring human relations back to the heart of the company, establish a climate of trust and good team cohesion, motivate by inspiring.

➤ In short, each session combines techniques & practice exercises adapted to your everyday situations (filmed with your agreement in order to be reviewed, commented on, decoded together live), so that you can put them into practice immediately, and this from the 1st session.

Statistically, the progression following these private sessions is quickly noticeable, from 2 or 3 sessions *. (* study 2020).

➤ THE TRAINER:
Trained in Grande Ecole post-preparatory classes & Ivy League university in the United States, our teacher has specialized and has been working for more than 15 years, in Europe and North America, in the field of communication , in reputable international public and private establishments, intervening in forums and conferences, and oriented on two axes: training and coaching, with pedagogy and careful methodology as key words.

Egg tempera is one of the most ancient historical art painting technique. It preserved as a main technique to paint orthodox religious icons. It is possible to learn it and paint your own icon.

Do you feel stuck in your practice or performance? Do you have the skills but struggle to express your musical voice with clarity and confidence? Or maybe you’ve been performing for years but want to take your artistry further — deeper, freer, more authentically you.

That’s where I come in.

I work as a musician, coach & creative mentor, helping performers connect the dots between their artistry, mindset, and professional life.

As a violist and saxophonist with experience in solo, chamber, orchestral, classical, jazz, pop, and world music, I understand the many layers of being a musician today. It’s not just about practicing and performing — it’s also about shaping your identity, reaching your audience, and managing the behind-the-scenes work that keeps your career moving.

💡 In our sessions, we can explore whatever part of your musical journey needs support:

* 🎻 Performance & Interpretation – confidence, expression, storytelling through sound
* 🎶 Chamber & Ensemble Skills – communication, listening, blending
* 🌍 Artistic Identity – shaping your unique voice and presence as a musician
* 💡 Mindset & Stage Presence – overcoming self-doubt, nerves, or creative blocks
* 📲 Practical Support – planning projects, creating content for socials, organizing tools, and simple automations to make your musical life run smoother

You don’t have to do this alone.

Whether you’re a student, an emerging artist, or already established, we’ll work with what’s inside you — your instincts, your strengths, your goals. Sessions can be a one-time deep dive or part of a longer creative journey together.

👉 Think of it as having a coach, mentor, and creative ally for both your music and your career.

Many of us mistakenly only seek to increase our happiness, but lack lasting satisfaction and peace. If you are feeling lost in life or unsure of what step to take to take, in this session, you will be truly seen and heard.

My sessions differ from traditional talk therapy because I weave in somatic techniques like breath, voice, and body awareness. This allows for true integration and processing through the body, which is especially helpful for working with trauma and for actually embodying the insights, not just understanding them in the mind.

True integration is oftentimes the most underrated part of the process in one’s journey into their subconscious. During this process, we work together to understand how your new discoveries can be incorporated into your everyday life. It is crucial that this step is conscientiously achieved, and in a place of non-judgment, where you feel safe and comfortable.

With time and patience, your life, and perception of the world and self, can transform.

Conscious Communication and Clear Boundaries is a course designed to help you express yourself with confidence, respect, and clarity in different contexts of your personal and professional life. You will learn to communicate your ideas, needs, and emotions consciously, without guilt or fear, and to establish healthy boundaries that strengthen your relationships.

Throughout the course, you will develop practical skills to speak confidently, say "no" assertively, handle difficult conversations, and respond calmly to challenging situations. We will work on verbal and emotional communication so you can communicate authentically and with self-control.

This course is ideal for people who want to improve their communication, gain confidence in expressing themselves, reduce conflicts, and create more balanced relationships, both at work and in daily life.

At the end, you will feel more confident in communicating, with greater mental and emotional clarity, and with concrete tools to set clear boundaries without losing the connection with others.
