About me

I started delving into psychology back in 2010, when I discovered a series that was discussing in depth the structures of the brain and their functions. But I only applied psychology in my life starting with 2021, after I reached emotional burnout due to the pandemic. That is when I discovered mindfulness meditation and positive psychology.

For the best part of 2022 I studied Positive Psychology with Martin Seligman and his team at the Pennsylvania University, The Science of well-being with Laurie Santos at Yale University, and I became a mindfulness teacher. In 2024 I became a certified coach.

Practicing mindfulness and positive psychology has helped me going through the most difficult 4 years of my life (within the last year alone I lost my father and had to put an end to my 19 years-long committed relationship). But what I also came to realize in these 4 years is that we have within us all the resources – character strengths – to live our life with more self-awareness, a deeper sense of calm, fulfillment and more passion.

When I started seeing the difference in my own life, I felt the the need to dedicate my work to helping people become aware of their strengths. And I’m very grateful to be able to use my core strengths – Appreciation of beauty and excellence, Forgiveness, Honesty, Spirituality and Love of Learning – to help people build on their strengths and start thriving. It’s deeply rewarding and empowering to see how people transform once they start applying their strengths.

As a Positive Psychology and Mindfulness Coach, I am passionate about helping you realize – actually feel it on an emotional level – that all the tools are within you already. And I will be there to guide you as you identify and start using your precious strengths. I look forward to sharing with you the practices meant to help you align your values with your actions, in order to increase your sense of calm and gain more fulfillment.
