Bio
Pia is a sought-after professional coach who helps executives, teams, and individuals achieve their desire to get to the next higher version of themselves. After a three-decade multinational corporate career journey, spanning the US, Europe, and the Middle East, Pia left to start her coaching practice in 2012. Her mission is to meet the clients where they are and bring empathy and emotions to her coaching style, ensuring they feel safe and empowered.
Pia holds certifications and licenses in a variety of areas: ICF accredited Coaching, Emotional intelligence (EQ-i), Resilience Coaching, Organizational Relationship Systems Coaching (ORSC), Equine Assisted Coaching and Facilitation, and several other industry-recognized accreditations, so clients can feel assured they are in the right place for their particular challenge. An international MBA and a Master's degree in Social Psychology back her core competencies.
It is Pia's philosophy and conviction that each client is resourceful, whole, and creative and has answers within; a few layers simply need peeling away to get to the core issues.
Pia resides near Malaga, Spain, and is available for virtual or in-person coaching.
