What I do

With over 30 years of experience in human growth and transformation. I specialize in Neuro-Linguistic Programming (NLP) to help individuals overcome deep-seated phobias, anxiety, and mental barriers. Through 1:1 coaching and transformative retreats, I provide the tools to recode your reality and create profound, lasting change.

The biggest change is that I have become much more confident in myself as a coach. I used to be preoccupied with following the tools and models to the letter, whereas now I trust the process and myself more. I’ve learned that great conversations aren’t about doing everything by the book, but about being present, listening, and using the tools naturally.
When I close my eyes and think back, I immediately feel a sense of joy flowing through my body. I feel quite moved, and consider myself incredibly lucky and grateful 🩷
What has left the biggest impression on me is the way you connect with people. You have a calmness and warmth that helps me relax and become more open to learning. I have felt seen, cared for, and taken seriously throughout the entire training. You are cheerful, approachable, and create a safe environment that has meant so much to me.
If you are curious about yourself and how you impact others, I would just go for it. You receive a lot of practical tools and learn a great deal about communication, which is incredibly useful both professionally and personally.
Thank you so much again, Christina, for giving me such a beautiful and unforgettable experience that I will carry with me moving forward in life 🩷
