In Angola and Indonesia, I shared my corporate experience with non-profit, social and cultural organizations, contributing to their development projects as well as staff capacity building. I am passionate about self-growth and the next milestones of my learning journey are to be educated in Neuroscience and to become a Qigong instructor.

I am a coach and developer of people. I have years of experience supporting and leading high-performing teams in a dynamic organization, and I have chronic diseases. I have experienced burnout, loss of passion, and overwhelming feelings of frustration and loss. Through coaching and holistic approaches to wellness, I am thriving and working to help others grow in health, wholeness, and happiness. With over a decade working in Learning & Development and as a credentialed coach, I hold a deep commitment to meaningful growth. I believe development is a voyage, sometimes uncertain, always evolving. I’m here to support others as they find their way forward on a new journey or dive into sustainable strategies. I coach with the mindset of a navigator and the heart of a nurturer, embodying a holistic approach. Whether you are trying to find your sea legs after receiving challenging or life-changing news, or someone feeling stuck and wanting more, I create space for reflection, strategy, and internal alignment.

I am an Organizational Psychologist (BA and MsC in Psychology), with coaching education, and hands-on experience, both as a freelancer, and as an internal organizational coach and consultant. Having spent the first years of my career in the IT industry, undertaking various project- and product management roles, I have personally experienced and witnessed many of the challenges leaders face. I became responsible with leading my first team at the age of 23, and wearing many hats requires, besides the hard skills, a set of soft skills and resilience that we are rarely taught in formal education. I believe leaders are not born, they learn, mature, and are supported into becoming the leaders that people need. For the past years my work with leaders has focused on developing emotional intelligence, and self-awareness to enable them to cultivate psychologically safe environments and relationships, improve communication, increase calm and confidence in difficult situations, and consequently, ensure a sustainable performance, both for them and their teams. What clients have said after working with me: ~Software Engineering Manager~ "Working with Andrea was a turning point as I transitioned into a more demanding leadership role. Her coaching style is subtle yet impactful, guiding me towards valuable self-realizations rather than directly instructing me. This approach has significantly improved my leadership skills and my ability to navigate new challenges. Andrea is ideal for anyone looking to grow in their leadership journey, particularly those stepping into larger roles and seeking to unlock their true potential. Her expertise in fostering growth and understanding in her clients is commendable. I enjoyed our sessions so much that I am considering returning to her guidance in the future. I recommend Andrea to those eager to explore and expand their leadership abilities." ~Software Architect Lead~ "I worked with Andrea for about 4 months and I want to wholeheartedly recommend her as both a career coach and a psychologist. Our sessions were instrumental in helping me identify and overcome some blockers that I had in my career progress. I gained valuable insights into managing myself better and understanding better the people I work with, starting a path to more efficient and harmonious working relationships. Her exceptional skills and experience (in psychology as well as IT management and coaching), her empathetic and compassionate approach, and her genuine care for her clients make her a great choice for anyone seeking personal and professional development. All in all, it has been a transformative experience. " ~Data Scientist~ "I got to know Andrea during my time at a company that was on a challenging path of a steep growth. Andrea was helping our team to reshape the internal working processes and to establish an efficient communication with the external stakeholders. That was, actually, the first experience in my professional career of working with an organizational coach and I was really amazed how, without being somebody “from the field” and without imposing any pre-conceived recipes, but just by asking right questions and by skillfully shaping the discussions, she was able to engage people in constructive discussions, to help them to come up to a shared understanding of challenges and goals and, ultimately, to efficiently identify the actionable points. Besides being a great professional, Andrea has an inspiring personality that shines through her uncompromising integrity, strong ethical standards and outstanding emotional intelligence. She would be a great asset to any organization that is striving to grow its business and to create value by bringing out the best of its people."
