Professional Coach | Integrative & Holistic Approach

About Marie-Christine
I support people who feel stuck, overwhelmed or at a crossroads in their life or work, particularly when thinking things through has not helped them find a way forward. My approach is curious and reflective, grounded in the belief that there can be more shaping our experience than what is immediately visible. Together, we explore what is happening now, what matters to you and what may be getting in the way, so you can reconnect with yourself and move forward with greater clarity, confidence and trust. Alongside professional coaching, my work is informed by Family Constellations and ancestral work, Classical and Intentional Feng Shui, and flower and vibrational essences. I draw on these different perspectives when appropriate, while keeping the individual and what they need at the centre of the work. Before becoming a coach, I spent more than 15 years working in the pharmaceutical and biotechnology industry. I originally came to Ireland to complete a PhD in Carbohydrate Chemistry and went on to build my career in corporate environments before choosing a different path in 2023. This experience means I understand both the demands of professional life and what it can feel like when the life or career you have built no longer feels quite right. Originally from France, with Portuguese roots, I now live in County Wicklow, Ireland. My own experiences of change, different cultures, lineage and belonging have deeply influenced the way I work. I work in English and French with private clients and also offer peer-to-peer coaching for fellow coaches. I know how valuable it can be, when you spend much of your time supporting others, to have a confidential space where the focus is on you. A space to explore your own questions, decisions or changes without needing to have the answers.
