TRAUMA & STRESS-INFORMED COACHING & COUNSELLING
&
COACHING FOR PHOTOGRAPHERS & ARTISTS

Do you

- feel unrooted?

- feel lost or without purpose

- feel like you are juggling too many things? 

- feel like you are struggling to find balance?

- feel haunted by your past?

- want to change existing family dynamics?

- feel burned out and too exhausted to look for help?

- feel you just would like to have a sparring partner for ideas, changes in life or new projects?

Sessions approach

The base of of all my sessions are on the approach of Compassionate Inquiry. This psychotherapeutic approach was developed by Dr. Gabor Maté and Sat Dharam Kaur and focuses on trauma, addiction and childhood development.

My focus is on creating a compassionate, respectful, non-judgmental and mindful open space. Together we will investigate what questions concern you, using techniques such as systemic work, family constellations, mindfulness and somatic exercises. 

The sessions are live or online, individually and with couples.

 For creatives

A transformational journey that I designed for photographers, artists, and creatives who want to uncover what truly needs to be expressed through their work and move beyond fears and limitations.

We integrate mindfulness & somatic practices Compassionate Inquiry, creative exploration & emotional awareness.

to connect your body, emotions, and creativity, gently explore subconscious patterns that block your artistic flow, recognize the inner parts that emerge when you feel blocked and the ones that thrive when you’re fully creative. 

The sessions are live or online, individual and in group

Trauma & Stress Informed Coaching

Trauma, big or small, is something we all carry with us. Trauma can occur when a child's basic needs are not fulfilled by the parents/care-takers. This may have happened when we were very young and unable to process what the environment required of us. This is how trauma remains in our bodies and manifests itself through triggers in our present.

One of the biggest causes of stress is the disconnection from our bodies. Stress of any kind, can be a signal the body send us to discover more about ourselves. This can provide us with important information about our mental and physical state.

With trauma-informed approaches like Compassionate Inquiry, mindfulness and somatic awareness I can help you unlock traumatic experiences that cause stress and provide you with tools to navigate the present without being led by your past. You will learn to integrate coping-strategies to restore balance and (re)connection with your body.

Systemic & Family Constellation Coaching

Systemic work is based on interconnections within systems, exploring how patterns influence behaviour, beliefs, and relationships. Family constellations is a facet of systemic work, using group dynamics to represent family structures. Participants embody family members, revealing hidden dynamics and unresolved issues.

On one on one sessions we work with the field, paper and colors.

We sometimes carry traumas that have been passed on by our ancestors, and we continue to pass them on to our own children. By observing these constellations we uncover inherited patterns and facilitating resolutions emerge.

About me

My name is Andrea Porcelli. Born in Barcelona, Spain, to South American parents, I have lived in various places across Spain, Chile, Argentina, and the Netherlands, surrounded by refugees, musicians, poets, philosophers, and artists.

For 25 years, I worked as a producer for several international photographers. In 2016, I decided to create a coaching program for artists to help them reconnect with the essence of their art. Over time, I realized I wanted to go even deeper—not just helping artists, but supporting people in (re)connecting with themselves and embracing authenticity in the world.

After experiencing burnout and other challenges, I became aware of deep feelings of confusion and disconnection from myself.

As a second-generation immigrant, I spent years searching for my place in the world and gradually learned to reconnect with my roots.

Through studying and processing my own childhood traumas, I began to understand what these signals of distress in my body and mind were trying to tell me. Inspired by Gabor Maté’s work, I came to appreciate The Wisdom of Trauma.

The desire to help others has always been part of my life. After years of searching—and through my own experiences, alongside various methods, approaches, and ideas—I have found my home. So, welcome!
