Hi! I’m Silvia, a former operator, certified Executive Coach with a Harvard Master’s in I/O Psychology.

I’m here to be your trusted advisor and confidant, specializing in the delicate balance of self-management while leading others.
Together, we’ll unlock your leadership potential and drive meaningful change.

Organizational Behavioral Science
Navigating team dynamics can feel like solving a puzzle with missing pieces—miscommunication, conflicting priorities, and interpersonal challenges often derail progress. We delve into the intricacies of human behavior to uncover what drives collaboration and decision-making within your teams. By aligning individual strengths with organizational goals, we’ll help you create a culture of trust, productivity, and high performance.
Psychology of Stress
Stress is the silent saboteur of effective leadership—undermining clarity, draining energy, and leaving you feeling stuck. Through science-backed techniques, we guide you to transform stress into a source of resilience and strength. By mastering your response to pressure, you’ll build the mental grit to stay focused and effective, even in the most demanding situations, avoiding burnout and decision fatigue.
Leadership Through Change
Growth can feel like chaos—new challenges, evolving teams, and shifting priorities can leave even the most seasoned leaders feeling uncertain. As your organization evolves, your leadership must evolve too. Together, we’ll develop the skills and strategies you need to navigate the complexities of change, ensuring you stay adaptable, confident, and effective through every stage.
