Embrace Personal Transformation with Individual Coaching
At AVANTI, we understand the power of individual attention. Our professional coaches, experienced in trauma recovery and personal development, work one-on-one with you. Together, you'll explore your unique experiences, identify personal strengths, and carve out a new life trajectory filled with resilience and empowerment.
Discover Strength in Unity with Group Coaching
While individual coaching can be deeply transformative, there's also immense power in unity. Our group coaching sessions offer an opportunity to connect with other women who have shared similar experiences. This nurturing space allows for the sharing of stories, challenges, triumphs, fostering a strong sense of camaraderie and understanding.
Express and Heal Through Art
Creativity has a profound healing power. At AVANTI, we integrate expressive arts into our healing process. Through guided collage-making and clay work, you'll be encouraged to express your feelings in a safe and non-judgmental environment. This creative release fosters deeper self-understanding and healing.
Find Peace in Guided Meditations and Breathwork
Embrace the calming power of guided meditation and breathwork. Our skilled practitioners will guide you on a journey of self-discovery and relaxation. These practices help reduce anxiety, strengthen emotional resilience, and open up pathways to personal growth and self-love.
