I came to Stella with strong listening skills and years of experience supporting people, but I lacked a reliable structure for a coaching conversation. Her training gave me a clear process from the opening question to the client's next action. We practised live, reviewed what I missed and repeated the parts that felt awkward until they became natural. Stella was direct about the boundary between coaching and therapy, which made me feel more responsible and more confident. I left with a method I could use, session templates I understood and the ability to explain exactly what coaching can and cannot offer.

Learn to do this work. Properly, and with people.
Live weekends, real practice hours, and a proper test at the end. Never more than eight people in the room, so you practise out loud, get honest feedback and leave able to do the thing instead of just describing it. Every certificate is accredited by IAOTH (International Association of Therapists).

Who these are for
You have always been the person people come to. Now you want to do it properly.
Maybe you already coach, teach yoga, lead a team or hold space for friends, and you know that good intentions are not a method. Maybe your own life changed through this work and you want to offer it responsibly. Maybe you simply want to understand people, including yourself, at a professional level.
Each course is built the way I wish my own training had been: practice before theory, real feedback from someone who does this work every week, and a group small enough that nobody can hide at the back. You leave with a method, the confidence to use it, and a certificate that means something.
How it works
- Live weekends: Saturday and Sunday, 09:00 to 12:00 and 14:00 to 17:00, with practice time between each weekend.
- Real hours: 96, 48 or 24 teaching hours depending on the course. No shortcuts and no padding.
- Twelve courses: four professional coaching certifications, four somatic and women's health trainings, four practice and teacher trainings.
- A proper test: a separate 45-minute live practical assessment, so your certificate reflects what you can actually do.
- Small group: minimum 5 and maximum 8 people. Places are confirmed in the order they are asked for.
- Or just you and me: add €290 and we run the whole course one to one, on days we agree together instead of weekends. Same hours, same certificate, your pace.
Coaching certifications
Four professional coaching courses.
Four live weekends. 96 teaching hours. The full method, practised until it is yours, so you can help people become aware, act, heal and grow.
Life Coach Certification
The complete method: patterns, evidence against potential, standards and boundaries, decisions, acting before confidence arrives, slipping back and coming back. You coach from day one, with live feedback every weekend.
Relationship Coaching Certification
Standards, evidence, attachment against love, conflict against harm, and how to help someone decide what they are truly willing to accept. Built on my work as a Master Relationship Coach and workshop leader.
Neurodiversity Coaching Certification
Coaching that respects different brains: energy, focus, planning, overload, shame, and building on strengths instead of fighting them. For coaches, managers and practitioners who want to stop using the same template on everybody.
Certified Trauma-Informed Somatic Life Coach
Coaching that includes the body. Learn to notice protective responses without calling them resistance, offer real choice, track activation, and help a client return to the present before moving forward. Pace, consent and safety become second nature, and your sessions become far more powerful because the whole person is in the room.
Somatic and women's health trainings
Four trainings for the body that remembers.
The mind understands. The body keeps the score. These four certifications teach you to help people release what they carry, gently and powerfully, with the body as your ally.
Certified Somatic Mind-Body Healing Practitioner
Read what posture, breath, sensation and movement are saying, invite awareness without forcing a release, and guide a person back to safety when something big surfaces. You leave able to run a complete somatic session that helps people feel present, lighter and at home in their body again.
Certified Somatic Reprocessing Practitioner for Illness and Pain
Support people living with persistent symptoms, tension and pain, alongside their medical care. Learn how fear, attention, stress and the nervous system talk to each other, and how careful, curious somatic work brings relief, calm and a sense of choice back into a body that felt like an enemy.
Trauma-Informed Somatic Weight Loss Coach Certification
A compassionate way to coach weight, food and movement that starts with safety instead of shame. Stress, sleep, body signals, habits, environment and the meaning attached to food, turned into changes a client can repeat in real life. Gentle, and still expecting honest action.
Women's Holistic Health Teacher Training Women only
The only course I teach for women only. Anatomy, hormones, the nervous system, the menstrual and moon cycles, the chakras, stress, sleep, nourishment, yoga for women's health, holistic health coaching and how to hold a women's circle. You leave with a complete, coherent framework for women's wellbeing and the confidence to teach it.
Practice and teacher trainings
Four practices that change how a day feels.
Meditation, breathwork, energy healing and EFT: simple, powerful tools that bring calm, energy and clarity into ordinary life. Learn to teach them safely, beautifully and with confidence.
Meditation Teacher Training
Lead grounded, beautiful meditation for one person or a whole room. Scripts, voice, pacing, silence, choice, and how to bring a practice to a calm, complete close. Your students leave lighter, clearer and more at peace, and they come back.
Breathwork Teacher Training
Gentle, calming breathing practices that settle the nervous system in minutes, ease tension, improve sleep and give people a tool they can use at their desk, before a hard conversation or at 3 a.m. Taught with the care and the safety that make you the teacher people trust.
Chakra Energy Healing Certification
A complete energy healing session structure: grounding, the seven centres, cleansing, balancing, and a calm, structured experience that leaves people feeling lighter, clearer and more connected to their own essence. Taught with love for the tradition and a practice you can offer with integrity.
EFT Practitioner Certification
One focused weekend on tapping: the points, the wording, the sequence, and how to guide a person from a racing mind to a calm body in minutes. A simple tool with extraordinary results for stress, fear, cravings and the moments before a big decision.
Your teacher
Taught by me. Not by a slide deck.
I am a Personal Development Coach, trained as a Professional Life Coach, Master Relationship Coach, Neurodiversity Coach with Distinction, Certified Trauma-Informed Somatic Life Coach and Somatic Mind-Body Healing Practitioner, with Meditation and Breathwork Teacher Training, Women's Holistic Health, EFT and certified ThetaHealing alongside. I have worked with more than fifty clients since 2018, and I wrote the book on this.
What I care about most: that you leave able to do the work with skill and compassion, and trusting your own judgement more than when you arrived. Coaching should grow a person's self-trust, not their need for a coach. Training should do exactly the same.
Stella

From people I have trained
They came to learn a method. They left with a practice.
I had practised meditation for years, but leading another person required skills I had never considered. Stella taught me how to write a clear practice, use my voice, pace silence and offer choices throughout. We also covered what to do when a participant becomes uncomfortable and how to bring a practice to a grounded close. I led several meditations during the training and received detailed feedback each time. By the end, I could guide a session without hiding behind a script. I felt calm because I knew the structure, the safety boundaries and the reason behind every instruction.
I already had coaching experience, but Stella's trauma-informed somatic training changed the way I understood pace, consent and resistance. I learned to notice protective responses without labelling them as a lack of commitment. We practised offering choices, tracking activation and helping a client return to the present before continuing. Stella connected every concept to a real coaching situation and gave feedback I could apply immediately. I now lead sessions with more patience, clearer boundaries and a stronger ability to work with the person in front of me rather than pushing through a prepared agenda.
Ask for your place
Eight places. One short conversation first.
Because the groups are small, I confirm every place myself. Tell me which course, a little about you and why now. I reply with the next confirmed dates, how to pay and a short call if either of us has questions. Nothing is charged until your place is confirmed.
- Places confirmed in the order they are asked for
- Payment plans available, just ask
- Next dates sent with your confirmation
- One to one option available on every course
Questions
Do I need experience first?+
No formal experience is needed. For the coaching certifications, curiosity, honesty and a willingness to practise in front of other people matter far more than a CV.
What does the certificate allow me to do?+
Every certificate is accredited and recognised by IAOTH (International Association of Therapists) and states its scope clearly. The coaching certifications qualify you to coach within the ethical limits of coaching, and the practice trainings qualify you to teach and guide those practices. If you need a specific recognition for your own country or profession, ask me before you enrol and I will tell you honestly whether this course gives it.
What if fewer than five people sign up?+
The group moves to the next dates and you choose first, or you get a full refund of anything paid. I do not run a training with two people pretending to be a group. You can also switch to the one to one option and start whenever you like.
How does the practical test work?+
A separate 45-minute live online session after the last weekend, where you show the skills and get feedback. It is designed to be useful, not frightening. Nobody has ever left it feeling smaller than when they arrived.
Is the Women's Holistic Health training really for women only?+
Yes. It is the one course I teach in a women-only group, because the material and the circle work are built for women's bodies, cycles and lives. Every other course is open to everyone.
Can I take the course in Italian?+
Yes. Courses run in English or Italian. Tell me which you prefer when you ask for your place, and I will let you know the next dates in that language.
