Stories of Change and Growth

Ahora estoy terminando el primer nivel de la formación de Coaching and Mentoring Specialist. La formación es muy bonita, una pasada, muy práctica y experiencial… Si uno tiene la posibilidad, creo que le encantará hacerla. Con el Covid, la situación se volvió muy complicada. La clínica está cerrada desde el día 13 de marzo, estamos pensando empezar de nuevo, y no sé en qué condiciones. Nunca he estado más de 3 semanas de vacaciones al año, y mira ahora, más de dos meses se van a ir sin trabajar. Ahí voy, hablando con los bancos para ver sin hacen un stand by en los cobros de las hipotecas, para no arruinarnos… Durante ese tiempo, la formación me ayudó mucho a seguir adelante, ajustarme a la situación, mantener una comunicación positiva con mi pareja en la situación de confinamiento, miedos, y aislamiento.

Echaré de menos nuestras conversaciones sobre la vida, y cómo puedo yo encontrar mi propio camino. ¡Me recuerdo de la frase de Maya Angelou en tus correos electrónicos! ¡Hasta otro día!

I felt listened to and enabled to see parts of me that I wasn’t aware of. I could connect more fully to what I need and felt safe enough to speak them up with my family and at work.

It is my job to work with people and help them to growth, make their own choices, and be assertive. Working with Agnes allowed me to deepen my understanding of relationships, interactions, and process of change. Since then, my clients told me that they felt more connected and more flexible to respond to challenges and discomfort. And I found myself much at ease in my relationships with my partner!

Después de cada encuentro puedo sentir cómo voy cambiando y sigo con mi día con una sonrisa y ganas de hacer muchas cosas. Ahora mismo voy a salir a escuchar los pájaros y disfrutar del buen tiempo!

Las sesiones que realice con Agnes constituyeron una experiencia increible. A mi modo de ver, su background en distintos metodos psico corporales la dota de un gran repertorio de recursos con el cual logra ayudar de una modo preciso a sus clientes.
