Lovely to meet you
Catarina, formerly a professional dancer, is now a business psychologist who uses her dance experience and creative energy to bring a unique perspective to her work.

Cati has an extraordinary ability to help people regain their inner strength and clarity! Through her empathetic and professional manner, she was able to immediately create an atmosphere of trust so that I could open up to her straight away. She helped me to explain complex topics in an understandable way and showed me some practical "tools" that I can use in everyday life to organize my personal thoughts, recognize negative patterns and gain new perspectives! Personally, I can only recommend working with Cati to anyone who is looking for inner clarity and personal growth.

Catarina is really great at getting to the heart of things. She asks the right questions, sometimes stuff you wouldn't even think of, but they really help in sorting out whatever issue you're dealing with. She's super determined to help her clients and really goes the extra mile. All in all, she's an awesome coach – supportive, insightful, and just really good at what she does.
