Hi, I'm Daniela

For more than a decade I've worked alongside people navigating grief, relationships, and significant change, first as a counsellor, now as a coach and mentor for people who want their self-awareness to show up in how they actually live.

​

I'm interested in what happens beyond awareness: recognizing a familiar pattern in the moment it's happening, questioning a way of thinking you've carried for years, and making different choices because of it.

 

How I got here

My path into this work wasn't a straight line. I spent years in sales and account management, and I was good at it. But the part of every job I loved was never the deal or the account, it was the conversations.

 

The moment someone trusted me with what was really going on. Eventually I admitted that was the work, and everything else was the day job. So I retrained as a counsellor and never looked back.

​

My own life has shaped how I understand change, too. I've had my own periods of questioning, loss, and starting over, and they taught me what I now see in my clients' lives: growth is rarely neat or linear. It asks for curiosity, honesty, patience, and the willingness to see yourself differently than you did last year.

 

What shapes my work

My Palestinian and Lebanese heritage, and growing up across cultures, taught me early that identity, belonging, family, and the stories we inherit run quietly underneath the choices we make.​
