Profile

I teach MBCT courses both in person and live online in non-clinical settings. I provide courses for company staffs and for members of the public. I mentor individuals who have a meditation practice and supervise mindfulness teachers. I am leading meditation weekends and retreats in a secular context. I am qualified as a Medical Doctor in 1988, and then undertook a postgraduate CBT training in 2007-2010. I work in the corporate field at a company specialised to treat mental disorders as a Medical Advisor. For many years I have had a special interest in the relationship between physical and mental health, and for the integrative mind-body practices, like mindfulness and Do In exercises to improve wellbeing and prevent diseases. For the last 10 years meditation have been a very important part of my life. Having had a personal mindfulness practice for a number of years, I have had the gift to study from some remarkable teachers both from the OMC and worldwide. I am trained to teach MBCT in person and online through the OMC. Beside that I am a certified Do In teacher and I have completed several mindfulness courses focusing on specific area (including MBSR teacher development course, MBI supervision training, teaching mindfulness live online, mindful communication, trauma sensitive mindfulness). My interest within the non-clinical settings include coping with stress, resilience, prevention of burn-out, changing habitual behaviour (especially overeating and overthinking), mindful communication and relationship, self-compassion.
