About Caterina

My name is Caterina Vanessa Carrer Amaya and I would like to share with you part of my career and what has led me to practice coaching with passion.

From a very young age I had a fascination for the workings of the mind, which led me to begin my studies in the field of Psychology and then specialize in Transpersonal Coaching (AICP), Emotional Intelligence (AECOPE) and Integrative Approach to Coaching and Psychology (EICPbe).

I was born and raised in Venezuela, lived there for 26 years and then moved to Europe where I spent some time in London, then 6 years in Palma de Mallorca and currently in Tuscany.

My stay in Mallorca was one of the most transformative and expansive experiences as I had the opportunity to delve into the world of early childhood education, Transpersonal Coaching and Emotional Intelligence.

These specializations, from which I also received accompaniment during my studies, opened the way to the process of transcending the limited sense of identity, allowing me to experience a greater and more meaningful reality, creating balance in the different parts that compose us: body, mind, emotions, energetic structure and spiritual field, making my progress sustainable over time. It helped me to discover the essence of life and its meaning. It was an integral training which started from my inner self and from that inner self I began to transform my experiences and surrounding reality.

On the other hand, I studied astrology, began the practice of Ashtanga and Kundalini yoga, which allowed me to get in touch with the power of breathing and meditation; I also delved into the teachings of Ho'oponopono and Atonement (from A Course in Miracles), initiating the process of liberation from the guilt and fear that dwells in the psyche, gradually dissolving conditioning, fears and limiting beliefs.

In addition, I had the opportunity to receive holistic therapies such as bio-energetic, muscle testing technique, systemic, family constellations, which allowed me to further deepen and expand my perception of reality by getting in touch with the morphogenetic field and the opportunity to sort out part of my family system and learn new ways of healing through systemic movements.

All the practices and courses I did gave me the opportunity to awaken and expand my mental, corporal, emotional and spiritual consciousness, connecting with my true Self in a gradual and holistic way, alchemizing my inner world and feeling more and more complete, part of a collective network, and at the same time connecting with my abundance and will to live.

At the same time, during my stay in the mediterranean island, I had the opportunity to work for 6 years in the educational area in different fields, as well as accompanying in a Montessori style free education school; This gave me the opportunity to integrate and deepen my knowledge by observing the dynamics of behavior both in the family and in the classroom, coming into contact with the different forms of emotional expressions generated by each student and the beliefs that shaped their lives, allowing me to address them, creating a safe space for children to express themselves authentically and freely, at the same time allowing me to recognize more and more the richness of my own emotional world.

On the other hand, I participated as a Transpersonal Coach in women's circles focused on creating spaces for conversation and active listening in order to address various psychological issues that limit our expression as the complete beings that we are. These were meaningful and valuable experiences because they allowed me to deepen my knowledge and at the same time integrate parts of myself. 

My passion for coaching has transformed over the years and today, my intention as a Coach, is to accompany clients and groups to achieve their goals through a journey of self-knowledge, allowing them to regain their personal power, the will to live, to connect with their life purpose, with creativity and playfulness, freeing themselves from fear and guilt based thoughts and transforming limiting beliefs and contractive emotions, creating space to receive expansive thoughts and emotions, to connect with their abundance, to know themselves in a deep way in order to live life from their most authentic Self taking full responsibility for themselves and aligning themselves with what makes their heart vibrate.

The hero's or heroine's journey is a path that we undertake with the utmost courage and conviction to find what we are looking for, going into our depths to bring light to those spaces of our psyche that ask to be recognized and integrated, it is a multidimensional awakening of our Being that gradually gives us a solid sense and conviction of belonging to a greater order, to a collective, where we are all One, where we begin to experience inner peace and recover our vital energy to move forward with conviction.

The values by which I channel my life and my passion as a coach are: freedom, respect, authenticity, creativity, responsibility, courage and compassion.
