About

Over 25 years experience in various functions, mainly in Human Resources with multinationals and international organisations including more than 15 years as a trained Counsellor and Coach.

My initial career after my university MBA degree was in Finance.  I travelled with work and for pleasure and enjoyed exploring different countries and cultures.  My curiousity increasingly turned inward to exploring the inner world of the psyche and I completed an MA in Counselling, followed by work in Human Resources, Coaching, and Counselling.  Some of the HR positions I’ve held with Europe-wide responsibilities were as Leadership and Development Manager, HR Director, and Recruitment and Development Manager.

As a coach and psychological counsellor, I have become increasingly interested in somatic psychology and neuroscience of the mind and body and how these approaches make the process of change more effective and efficient.  To this end I have completed Post-graduate studies in Somatic Experiencing and Internal Family Systems as well as other workshops focused on the treatment of trauma, anxiety, depression, and relationship challenges.

With Swiss and American nationalities, I have been living and working in Switzerland for more than 25 years, working in both English and French.  I am married and have one school-aged son.  I am resourced and re-energised by being out in nature enjoying a variety of outdoor sports, meditation, yoga, and time with family and friends.
