About me
I am a mother, a teacher, and a guide.
Raising four children was the greatest school of my life. They stretched me, pushed me, and invited me to face the parts of myself I had kept in the shadows — the fears, the limited beliefs, the places where I hid my own light so no one could hurt me. The love I had for them was bigger than all of that. And slowly, through that love, I became more whole.
I learned something through that journey that I now bring to every parent I work with: parenting is not about getting it right. It is a quest. A daily invitation to become more fully human — with all your shortcomings, your talents, your light and your darkness. Children are watching. They imitate everything. They are looking for a living model of what it means to be truly human. The more you find your own center — the place that can hold all of who you are — the more you become that unifying presence for your child.
I became a teacher because I love making the deep things accessible. The mysteries of life, the maps of inner development, the wisdom of the great traditions — I love finding the way to bring these down to earth so that people can actually take them into their lives. When I see that land in someone, when I see them step a little more fully into who they are — that is everything to me.
What I do in practice is something quieter. I hold space. I listen. I witness. I help parents give birth to the wise, loving inner parent that already lives within them — the one who knows, beneath all the noise, exactly what their child needs.

My Story
In my twenties, I discovered a love for biology and embryology — sciences that study the nature and developmental stages of life. That scientific grounding gave me something I have carried ever since: a deep reverence for the mystery of how life unfolds.
The following three decades I dedicated to raising my children, and to teaching — in early childhood, grade school, and high school. I had the privilege of watching children grow through every stage, and of supporting the parents and teachers beside them.
Running through all of it has been my own path of inner work — a lifelong unfolding toward authenticity and service. I have walked through many traditions: yoga, Buddhism, hermeticism, Anthroposophy, Jungian therapy, Psychosynthesis. Each one added a thread. Together they became the map I now offer to others.
These three streams — nature, nurture, and a path of self-initiation — are what I bring to this work.
HOW I WORK
The first session is about finding the real question. People often arrive knowing something isn't working, but not yet knowing what they are truly asking. I listen. I create space. And slowly, through that listening, clarity begins to arise.
I work by weaving questions through past, present, and future — a kind of figure-8 dance that moves between what has been, what is, and what the heart is quietly longing for. Words surface. Images emerge. The question takes shape.
From there, the work becomes a personalized quest. Depending on what wants to be explored, I draw from two bodies of work. If we are working with biography — informed by Anthroposophy — we look for the thread that has always run through a person's life: the author beneath the story, the inner strength waiting to be reclaimed. If we are working with Psychosynthesis, we explore the inner landscape of the soul — identifying the parts that sometimes drive the bus without permission, and guiding them gently toward integration and wholeness.
The work is never a formula. It goes where it needs to go.
What I bring to every session is a quality of presence — grounded, warm, and open to what is invisible as much as what is seen. People feel it before they can name it.

IS THIS A GOOD FIT?
This work is for parents and caregivers who are committed — to their own growth and to raising their children in the truest way possible. Who are willing to look at themselves with honesty and courage.
It is not for those looking for a quick fix, or who are not yet ready for that kind of inner work. And that is perfectly fine. This work meets you when you are ready.
