There is nothing worse than being told you are not trying hard enough or wasting your potential. Are you struggling at school or workplace, to be heard in your relationships, feeling ‘stuck’ in your career, beating yourself up or constantly worried over what others might think? If you are curious and passionate about learning, implementing personal strategies and skills for your life, career and relationships in a holistic way, then I can help you identify and develop new, positive ways of relating to yourself and others.

I know what it is like to be an immigrant and to live with ADHD. I understand its tremendous challenges and opportunities for growth in finding meaning and purpose. I have lived, worked and travelled in many different countries with a deep appreciation for diverse cultures and lifestyles. I look forward to providing you the foundation you need, to take life to the next level!
