About Me
I am a seasoned relationship coach certified in Relational Life Therapy (RLT), Imago Therapy, and Systemic Family Therapy, working with couples in English, French, and Spanish, both in person and online. With a deep belief that extraordinary relationships are built – not found – I helps couples break destructive cycles, heal past wounds, and create deeply connected, thriving partnerships. Blending cutting-edge therapeutic insights with real-world practicality, I empowers couples to transform challenges into opportunities for profound growth and intimacy.
Born and raised in Ecuador, I left my country at 18 to study abroad—and never looked back! Along the way, I fell in love with Stephan, my adventurous and loving husband, in Switzerland. Together, we've lived on five continents, raised four incredible daughters, and now enjoy the joy of being grandparents.
When we married 34 years ago, we had love and a dream—but no money, no house, and no job! People often ask how we made it, given our vastly different cultural backgrounds. The truth? It wasn’t always easy. We learned the hard way—through trial, error, and a lot of improvisation. Looking back, I wish we had the tools and guidance to navigate those years with more ease and less disconnection.
My lifelong curiosity about human relationships, especially couples, has fueled my journey. I firmly believe that no one enters a relationship to be miserable or settle for mediocrity. Yet, we are rarely taught how to cultivate a thriving partnership.
The absence of relational skills leads to disconnection, broken families, and heartache. My mission is to change that—one couple at a time. I am committed to equipping partners with transformative tools that foster deeper connection, awareness, and lasting love.
I've had the privilege of learning directly from pioneers in the field of relationships, including the Gottmans, the Hendricks, the Parrots, Cloé Madanes, Tony Robbins, and Terry Real. Drawing from their wisdom and modern, evidence-based methods, I’ve developed my own relational toolkit—one that has been tested, refined, and lived in my own marriage. Our relationship has been our greatest laboratory of pain and growth, and I am passionate about helping others create the love they truly desire.
