Teaching styles :

​

Her approach to her work is based on a deep belief in people's abilities to contact and develop their own resources. She believes in the idea of "empowerment", "autonomisation" and sees her work as a means of promoting long-term development, access to quality of life and the well-being of people.

She favors an interactive and participatory style of teaching and support, to promote experiential learning and growth. The idea of promoting and sharing with others joy, kindness, lightness and compassion is close to her heart as an experience of returning to her true nature. Perfectly bilingual in English and French.
