Decision-making and options - facing education, career and personal choices
The big decisions we make in life often creep up on us unawares. We may not realise we’re making them until it’s too late. Alternatively, we may feel pressured to make decisions on a timescale which doesn’t fit with our own thoughts and personal development, and with that comes a feeling of lost control.
You will learn to identify the options you have in front of you, differentiate between important and urgent decisions. You will be equipped to navigate and negotiate your choices so you can take confident, determined steps towards the changes you want in your life, without burning your bridges.

Personal support and professional coaching via a transcendental and holistic approachAs a therapist specializing in transcendental psychology, my approach is rooted in a practice of ancestral wisdoms, particularly those from Amazonian traditions. I integrate elements of transpersonal psychology, a school of thought that explores the spiritual dimensions of human experience.
I focus on conscious observation and personalized coaching to guide each individual towards reconnecting with their innate inner wisdom. By recognizing that each life experience, whether perceived as positive or negative, offers an opportunity for growth, I help the people I coach to transform these events into levers for personal development.
My holistic approach considers the human being in its entirety, encompassing the physical, emotional, mental and spiritual dimensions. Inspired by practices such as holotropic breathing and mindfulness meditation, I facilitate the exploration of the depths of the soul, thus allowing a release of blockages and an inner harmonization.
I offer individual sessions and group workshops, adapted to the specific needs of each person, aimed at:
Promote the awakening of consciousness: by developing an attentive presence to oneself and to the surrounding world.
Encourage self-exploration: to identify and transcend limiting patterns inherited from the past.
Integrating life experiences: transforming challenges into opportunities for learning and growth.
Strengthening spiritual connection: by opening up to transpersonal dimensions of existence.
Together, we will work to unleash your latent potential, harmonize your energies and align you with your true essence, in order to live a more fulfilling and authentic life.

Personal Development /mentoring/empowerment (well being, relationships, work, health, sport, nutrition )As a basketball coach and mentor, I’ve spent years helping individuals tap into their hidden potential, overcome challenges, and achieve their goals. Through the dynamic world of sports, I’ve had the privilege of transforming not only athletic performance but also mental strength, and attitude in young ages and older individuals. Through this capacity I discovered my natural talent to help people discover their true potential and release talents and personal trends that many times they didn't believe they possess. This is particularly true in parents, as they saw their kids developing in ways that was a surprise followed by true excitement.
Basketball and sports are more than game—it’s a reflection of life. It teaches confidence, fkexibility, resilience, teamwork, focus, and the ability to adapt under pressure. These same principles are the foundation of my life coaching approach. By combining my experience on the court with a deep understanding of personal growth and mindset transformation, I offer a unique mentoring experience that helps you excel both personally and professionally.
Whether you’re seeking clarity in your life, overcoming setbacks, or simply striving to reach the next level, my mentoring will guide you. Just as I’ve inspired my players( and parents) to reach new heights on and off the court, I’m here to help you rewrite your story and become the best version of yourself.
Many parents trusted me to guide their kids. Many adults proffesionals trusted me for their most challenging problems inside the court and in their life. I am proud to say that I positively contributed to their life journey.
Are you ready to take the first step toward unlocking your full potential? Join me in this transformative experience, and let’s achieve greatness together.

✅COACHING IN PERSONAL DEVELOPMENT & PRAGMATIC METHODS BY A PSYCHOANALYST / PSYCHOPRACTITIONER➤Choose the appropriate mediator to carry out quality work and help each other move forward/overcome certain mechanisms. An awareness necessary for change will then make it possible to be part of a new dynamic of life, to calm down and to use all its potential in the emotional/family/professional domains.
➤ Self-exploration in order to free oneself from emotion through speech and action / application, involves questioning oneself, analyzing, taking distance, and understanding the issues / points causing suffering or distress, before finally freeing oneself from them. This is intended to promote significant changes in cognitive, emotional or behavioral functioning.
➤This methodological approach, halfway between first practical behavioral coaching in an 'Anglo-Saxon' style and then psychoanalysis accompanied by a dedicated specialized psychoanalyst psycho-practitioner, is based precisely on precise questioning techniques, offering help in finding solutions, mastering new ways of envisaging/dealing with/perceiving difficulties, then implementing actions to be carried out. Combining the advantages of the two approaches and choosing the appropriate mediator to carry out quality work and help each other move forward/overcome certain mechanisms, will therefore induce the awareness necessary for this decided change, towards a new dynamic.
➤Objective? Understand the mechanisms of induced thought & emotion, linked to given everyday situations and which involve blockages. Then act concretely thanks to pragmatic techniques / methodological approaches from coaching, adapted to your situation to regain power over your life.
➤To lead this change & realize these aspirations, a cohort of concrete tools are at our disposal, but which involve deepening self-exploration. To question yourself, analyze, take some distance & understand the issues / problematic points, before finally freeing yourself from them through action.
➤Examples of themes/problems regularly dealt with & which are the subject of dedicated specialized support, adapted to your plan:
•Self-confidence, self-esteem/assertion, shyness, decision-making, personal development
•Management of emotions & suffering expressed in the form of anxieties, depressive disorders, embarrassments, addictions, relationship difficulties, phobia, stress, anger, anxiety, negative thoughts, panic, depression but also modification of behaviors harmful to good -being (post-traumatic stress, injuries, dependencies, addictions, etc.)
• Disorders of school/professional relations (tensions, (re)orientation, pressures & conflicts)
Program
and personal (family, romantic, friendly, emotional) & social (loneliness, communication difficulties generating pain/frustration)
• Problem of concentration, procrastination, organization, professional efficiency, time management
•Management of a past trauma of which you are the victim
(...)
➤At the start, it is always a question of knowing the triggers that led you to get support and knowing what you hope to accomplish with this follow-up.
➤With specific techniques that have proven themselves & adapted to your case and through a methodological approach and pragmatic tools, the purpose involves on the one hand an exploration of oneself through psychoanalytic tools and on the other hand concrete actions, as is the essence of coaching which bears fruit from the first sessions, by making you autonomous.
➤Influenced by cognitive & behavioral therapies, by Anglo-Saxon coaching instruments & the European methodology of applied psychoanalysis, the approach therefore aims to seek links between current difficulties and past experiences, including repressed and unresolved conflicts and to confront difficulties that may be partially related to inappropriate thoughts or behaviors learned/adopted often in spite of oneself.
➤And if cookie-cutter advice is precisely not offered, that you will never be judged or directed but heard and guided, in a process of permanent/interactive co-construction...it is precisely because it is important beforehand to analyze together, to become aware, to study jointly, to deepen, to decode your blockages & your initial problem to clarify your aspirations.
➤ So, how does a session take place? After an initial inventory, 'diagnostic'/exploratory contact during which your expectations are examined, your problem, your blockages, your needs and objectives identified, it is a question of analyzing them together then changing perspective/approach, considering 'the impasse' differently, think differently about the difficulties, gradually get out of your comfort zone thanks to a series of pragmatic suggestions/reflections/actions to be applied, according to a line of work defined together, anchored in a relationship of benevolent trust.
➤ So, to develop coherent solutions in a living, authentic and assertive life, inspired by our intuition and elements of positive psychology, this individual support helps to:
- create a clear picture of your desired future and your individual journey
- activate your unique resources and strengths
- transform inner insecurity into confidence in order to focus your inner power
- broaden your scope
- use your gifts to co-create the transition to a vital and vital way of life in harmony with nature.
Concretely, a SESSION = REFLECTION + SOLUTIONS, with a readjusted strategy if necessary.

Mathematics for middle school students, academic coaching and exam preparation I have many years of experience in teaching mathematics in private lessons, in 3 languages, 3 countries and in Swiss colleges. My specialty is the middle school program (12 to 16 years old) and preparation for entrance exams to the gymnasium (high school) and vocational schools. I give lessons in person, at home, or online (whatsapp). For independent students, however, I prefer online lessons because I have a lot of travel for my projects between Tunisia and Switzerland.

✅TRAINING TO EMBODY EFFECTIVE MANAGERIAL COMMUNICATION: RHETORIC, ORATORY, DISTRIBUTION, SPEECH, TEAM MANAGEMENT, NEGOTIATION➤ Being a good manager is also being a good communicator. After all, a strategy can only be put into practice if you show yourself capable of interacting with your employees, of being a source of inspiration for them and of listening to their concerns. Unfortunately, not all managers naturally excel in this role and their difficulties in asserting themselves as true leaders is often attributable to their difficulties in communicating.
➤ The objective would then be to explore together the areas of improvement in terms of communication know-how. And managing effectively requires specific and cutting-edge know-how.
➤ In fact, managerial communication corresponds to the interactions between the management of the company and the organization and more specifically, between the manager and his team. This manager is in charge of transmitting information and directives coming from higher hierarchical levels, supporting internal communication, distilling messages related to his own management to obtain the commitment of his team, all while transmitting a message effectively.
➤ This exercise can therefore be tricky: this is why it is important to choose the right mediator in order to be well supported, not only to be understood by those around him, but also to carry out his mission.
➤ What to communicate? When ? Whose ? These questions will find an answer in the consistency of the actions undertaken. Good managerial communication will thus aim to exchange / dialogue effectively with its employees, maintain a close link between the different layers of the company, bring human relations back to the heart of the company, establish a climate of trust and good team cohesion, motivate by inspiring.
➤ In short, each session combines techniques & practice exercises adapted to your everyday situations (filmed with your agreement in order to be reviewed, commented on, decoded together live), so that you can put them into practice immediately, and this from the 1st session.
Statistically, the progression following these private sessions is quickly noticeable, from 2 or 3 sessions*. (*study 2022).
