When I was a teenager, I used to be called utopian, idealist, naïve. The reason?
I thought that love could change people's hearts and the world. It was a naïve
idea and, if you are reading this, you know things are not quite that simple.
But intuitively I already knew the power of human presence for healing and
transformation. It took me years to find a career path that really fitted me.
Becoming a therapist was the biggest gift of my life. I started to do what I've
always dreamt to do: helping people transform their lives so that they can help
others and all together we can change the world. You might think I sound even
more naïve than when I was a teenager. Well, I embrace my naiveté so. I believe
it is possible, and I see it happening all the time in my therapy room. People
tend to feel happier and discover ways in which they would like to help others,
starting by helping themselves.
