The clients appreciate her creative ideas and her willingness to find the simplest and most effective solutions. Her ability to listen and her training in hedo-coaching enable her to help her clients to implement tailor-made plans created in a collaborative manner and built to last.

She acts at all stages of the procedure.

Finally, due to her ability to popularise these technical and complex issues, she is regularly solicited by the media (newspapers and TV shows).
