I cannot praise Alejandra enough; I am still in awe in terms of her level of empathy and her ability to truly listen and read between the lines. Alejandra quickly earned by trust -despite my being at a bad place at the time- and I felt very comfortable and safe when opening up to her. Alejandra would make me feel so much better after seeing her, to the point I would always look forward to and be hopeful about my next session.
I felt a sense of clarity after seeing Alejandra; I felt more in control and that there were some things I could do-- however little-- to make my situation much better. I feel that if everyone had the skills and humanity that Alejandra has that the world would truly be a much better place.
Ale provided me with coaching support through the first two years of a radical late career change. I found her skilled reflections invaluable in helping me adjust to an emotionally demanding role in child protection work, and the peculiar challenge of shifting from a very senior managerial role to frontline work.
Although this was a change that I have not regretted, Ale helped me find clarity, resolve and motivation when I was confronted with frustrations sometimes intrinsic to the work itself and sometimes within the organisational culture in which I functioned.
She brought a quiet wisdom to our meetings; her reflections were marked by insight and sensitivity and I always took something renewing and constructive from our sessions. She is a highly skilled and professional coach who I strongly recommend to anyone looking for neutral support in negotiating the demands of challenging, but rewarding work, across a range of contexts.
I’ve been working with Alejandra for over 11 years now. I come back to work with her every time I’m struggling with a difficult career or life decision; we work until the situation is solved (usually between 1 to 4 months). Every single time I've worked with her I’ve gotten tremendous value out of our interactions. She never gives me any answer, but helps me clarify my decisions and find what is deep underneath; she helps me see what I can’t see by myself. Every single time I’ve taken a decision based on the work I’ve done with her, I’ve been extremely secure, motivated and energised to move on, never second-guessing or looking back.
Alejandra’s work not only is effective on a professional basis, but also has affected positively my life as a whole. Her values and approach to a balanced life I think give her professional results as a coach an added value that would be very difficult to find somewhere else. I’m extremely grateful for all the positive thing’s she has brought to my career and my life.
