There is nothing that can exist by itself. Everything depends on everything else. This is called inter-being. To be means inter-being. The flower cannot exist by itself, but it asks to inter-being with the soil, with the rain, with wild grasses and insects. Tich Nhat Hanh

"I aspire to bring Nonviolent Communication (NVC) to people experiencing moments of profound personal, and social, change to stimulate resilience and the ability to make informed choices."

I live in Italy after living and working in Latin America and Germany. In my life, I have known and intertwined different languages and cultures. This has contributed to the growth in me of an inquisitive curiosity towards listening and mediation between people of different cultures.

In 2014 in Italy, I participated in the “Mediate Your Life” intensive course with John Kinyon and Ike Lassiter. This experience changed my life. The transformative power of giraffe language resonated with me. I saw the possibility of being able to meet and listen with compassion to the jackal and its messages. I chose to put a paradigm shift into action, to cultivate trust in life and help create spaces for listening and sharing.

Following this intensive, the group of “Costruire Pace” was formed, with which I continued to practice and disseminate Nonviolent Communication. In 2020, I started the certification path with Stephanie Bachmann Mattei as Assessor, and later with Ruud Baanders.

I have attended and fulfilled several trainings as a spiritual assistant in the end of life, with the Italian Buddhist Union and with the “Dare Protezione” Association. I am in continuing education with the People's University, “In Corde Scientia” for the Empathic Care of the End of Life method. I have brought the approach of empathic listening in the accompaniment of the end of life and mourning, with adults, children, and animals.

I hold meetings where I combine the practices of Nonviolent Communication, Meditation, and Art Therapy. I lead ceremonies and rites of passage that respond to the needs and requests of those who are experiencing these moments of great change.

Trainer's primary language

Vivo in Italia dopo aver vissuto e lavorato in America Latina e in Germania, nella mia vita ho conosciuto e intrecciato lingue e culture diverse, questo ha contribuito a far crescere in me la curiosità inquisitiva verso l’ascolto e la mediazione tra persone di culture differenti. Nel 2014 in Italia, ho partecipato al percorso intensivo “Mediate Your Live” con John Kinyon e Ike Lassater. 

Questa esperienza ha cambiato la mia vita, ha risuonato in me il potere di trasformazione del linguaggio giraffa, ho visto la possibilità di poter incontrare ed ascoltare con compassione lo sciacallo e i suoi messaggi, ho scelto di mettere in azione un cambio di paradigma, di coltivare la fiducia nella vita e contribuire a creare spazi di ascolto e condivisione.

A seguito di questo intensivo si è formato il gruppo dei “Costruttori di Pace” con cui ho continuato a praticare e divulgare la cnv, nel 2020 ho iniziato il percorso di certificazione con Stephanie Bachmann come Assesor e in seguito con Ruud Baanders.

Ho frequentato ed assolto diversi percorsi di formazione come assistente spirituale nel fine vita, con l’Unione Buddista Italiana e con l’Associazione “Dare protezione”, sono in formazione permanente con l’Università Popolare “in Corde Scientia” per il metodo E.C.E.L., ho portato l’approccio dell’ ascolto empatico nell’accompagnamento del fine vita e del lutto, con adulti, bambini e animali, tengo incontri dove unisco le pratiche della comunicazione nonviolenta, la meditazione e l’arteterapia, conduco cerimonie e riti di passaggio che rispondono ai bisogni ed alle richieste di chi sta vivendo questi momenti di grande cambiamento.

“All spiritual paths seek connection to the language of the heart, Nonviolent Communication offers practices for connection to the life energy in us in the form of needs. Authentic expression of needs, empathic listening to the other, conscious requests for what might enrich my life and yours, show us our belonging to the whole.”
