"I love working with people, and I am deeply committed to making even a single person's life better. I think we are all linked and that we raise ourselves by uplifting others. Each of us deserves to understand why we are confronted with unexpected events in life, and we all deserve to learn how to deal with them. We all have difficult times, and sometimes we feel like there is no way out, but I'm here to tell you that you don't have to face life's challenges alone. Let's get a cup of tea and explore your thoughts together as we look for ways to improve your life.
I can provide sessions in English, Romanian or Japanese language with adults and teenagers."
