eMotion Therapy&Dance
Know my story
Romanian blood, world citizen, currently based in Belgium. I am a curios, free spirit and a rebel heart. Fun fact, when I was younger I dreamed of becoming a spy or detective.
After 13+ years of dancing, a master in Clinical Psychology, 3 long-term coaching programs, a NLP training, countless workshops and conferences...I realise I am becoming a soul detective.
As a child that got sick often and had to undergo medical interventions of all kind (nothing extra, but still, quite traumatic) I always looked into how to make my body healthier and my mind stronger. I remember I was told a lot that "you are too fragile and sensitive" - imagine my inner voice and how weak and unprepared I thought I am. Later on, I understood how much I was somatising.
No wonder psychology chose me. This, and dancing, helped me blossom in unexpected ways: step out of victim mentality, own my body, take responsibility for my mindset and actions, move with ease and presence through life.
It's an ongoing process, by the way. It takes time, conscious action and a safe space to express and connect.
My role there is to create that safe space, encourage self-awareness and help you move through live with confidence. Why waiting for a crisis to arise in order to finally act?
The body and the mind should not be treated sepparately, but as a whole. Repressed emotions will show up in one way or another.
eMotion concept arose when dance and psychology crossed paths. An eclectic approach, that encompasses psychology, neuroscience, psychosomatics, body movement & coaching, aiming towards a fullfiling, aware and healthy way of living.
It is not a statement I am making by books, but by personal experience, reenforced by multiple research studies and specific literature.
What is eMotion?
Life is to be lived, explored, discovered. I love the idea of living life at its fullest. However, this comes with challenges, ups, downs, rights or lefts.
In face of adversity and challenges, it's on you to decide how you want to act. Fight, flight or fawn?
As a psychologist and movement enthousiast, my mission is to empower individuals to encourage healthy and adaptive responses, with all the tools that we dispose. And that, in my opinion are: awareness, an infinite potential that we all have, mindful decisions, emotional intelligence and an amazing nervous system. Needless to say, the power of nature and all its unestimated resources.
Grounded in empathy and compassion, I am committed to providing support and evidence-based interventions to help clients navigate life’s challenges, heal from past traumas, and discover their inner strengths.
My motto is "Prevention over treatment" , and building a mindful lifestyle is one way to get there. It does not have to be complicated, or to take a life-time. My goal is to help my clients overcome their life obstacles at their own pace, but in a short-time therapy process.
