CERTIFIED TRAINER

Alexandra Sava

My work is my life journey. Over the last 20 years, I have accumulated hands on experience in management, communication and leadership, training and coaching, personal and team leadership and development.

Each stage in my diverse professional journey brought new and complex insights, skills, and experience. These in turn bring relevance to the training and coaching programs, and the agility to see and understand people, situations and needs from different points of view.

As a trainer, I have always been searching for practical tools: complex yet clear and simple to use. I discovered PCM in 2006 and I became the first certified trainer in Romania. Over the years, participants have evaluated PCM as the most useful communication tool for improving personal and professional relationships and work performance.

At present, I work as trainer, consultant and coach in the fields of communication, leadership, team development and personal transformation.

CERTIFIED TRAINER

Deanie Nicholls

I have 36 years experience in Education in Australia and have been a leader in my field for over 16 years. I have worked with John Parr and members of TEAM Emotion around the word, for many years and have built my own capacity as well as supported others, both adults and students, to build theirs. This program not only supports adult emotional intelligence and growth in understanding their emotions, but also in their leadership skills and interpersonal relationships to be successful in their careers. I have worked with team members to introduce this pedagogy to children and as a result have seen children with dysregulation learn to understand their emotions and learn to regulate them, enabling them to successfully engage in learning and social situations. I have seen the pedagogy work on so many levels and look forward to continuing to share this knowledge around the world.

CERTIFIED TRAINER

Magda Tabac

I am a Certified Trainer in Emotional Assertiveness® (EA), Process Communication Model® (PCM) and a NeuroMindfulness © Master Practitioner. Previous to this, I have gained over twelve years of experience in multinational organisations in Brazil, Romania, the UK and Germany.

In 2017, after experiencing burnout and long periods of chronic stress, I have decided to re-start my career and turn to subjects that have always interested me and are closer to my heart: training, psychology and neuroscience. This is why I have started my journey and mission as a trainer, to empower people to enhance their lives through increased self-awareness, better communication and improved stress management.

I now live in Munich, Germany and I am open for worldwide collaborations. I can deliver training sessions in English and Romanian.

Emotional Assertiveness has opened up a door to a more authentic relationship with myself. A more honest and more constructive one. I have learnt the ways in which I was not expressing authentically and assertively my emotions and how I was inviting others in drama. Plus, it helped me understand the cost of all of that and the negative impact it had on my productivity, work and personal relationships, my well-being.

The model is so simple and yet so powerful. It’s like a logical scheme into recognising my authentic emotions and what needs they are communicating to me and how to assertively and in a win/win manner communicate them to my peers for a workable compromise, that will strengthen our relationship.

The Aha! moments and transformation I’ve seen in my participants from the first sessions I delivered give me the motivation to bring this Model close to as many people as possible, all around the world.

I will be honoured to accompany you in your journey towards your real self, towards your authentic emotions, better relationships and increased well-being. At work or at home.

Sinziana Ionescu

Hello, I’m Sinziana. I am Certified Trainer in Emotional Assertiveness® and a Professional Life Coach based in Rotterdam, The Netherlands.

Originally from Romania, I relocated to The Netherlands in 2012 to pursue my studies. After several years as a project manager in the pharmaceutical industry, I transitioned to the mental health field in 2020.

My coaching approach blends various therapeutic methods to guide individuals on their self-development journey, helping them reclaim their authenticity and break free from stress and overwhelm.

Emotional Assertiveness® has profoundly transformed how I relate to emotions like sadness, anger, and fear. By understanding and integrating this model into my personal life, I’ve been able to bring its benefits into my 1-on-1 coaching sessions.

Here’s what my clients have had to say:

“Anger was a tricky emotion for me as it was strongly tied to fear and shutdown, due to the environment I grew up in. Now, I have a completely different perspective of it and can recognize the positive function of anger and how we can use it to set our boundaries in a healthy way.”

“This course exceeded my expectations. I loved learning about the different types of anger and the function of healthy anger. Anger was a tricky emotion for me as it was strongly tied to fear and shutdown for me, because of the environment I grew up in. Now I have a completely different perspective of it and can recognise the positive function of anger and how we can use it to set our boundaries in a healthy way.” – Alexandra Keuning

“I took an emotional awareness training course taught by Sinziana, and I found her to be insightful, patient, and encouraging. She created a space where I felt safe to share and be vulnerable, which was crucial for gaining insights about myself. The combination of theory and practical exercises worked well. This course gave me food for thought and a framework to approach strong emotions such as anger. This type of training should be given in schools to ensure everyone develops a stronger awareness of their emotions and how to deal with them constructively. And you’re in good hands with Sinziana!” – Laurence Ogé
