Hi, I am Julia. With 15+ years of experience in academia, research, teaching, and leadership, and 5 years of applied philosophical practice, I bring a multidisciplinary perspective to my work as a Philosophical & Systemic Coach and Counsellor.
My background is rooted in practical philosophy, applied ethics, and aesthetics, with a particular interest in the intersections of neuroscience, social and cognitive psychology, culture, art, design, and technology. Alongside my academic career as a professor for philosophy, I have held leadership and executive roles as a founder and company owner in the media, art, and design sectors. These experiences have shaped the way I work today: with a deep interest in people, systems, values, and the complex forces that shape our decisions, relationships, careers, and lives.
I work with individuals, professionals, and leaders who sense that something needs to shift—whether they are navigating a specific challenge or transition, reconsidering their career path or leadership style, seeking greater clarity and direction, or wanting to address challenges more fundamentally and create lasting change. My work in Mental Wellbeing & Personal Development supports individuals in connecting with their values, strengths, real needs, and sense of purpose while developing greater resilience, agency, and socially and individually sustainable ways of living and working. For organisations and leaders, I offer Leadership Development and Executive Education with a focus on value-based, sustainable, and transformational leadership. My approach differs from conventional coaching and therapeutic approaches through its philosophical foundation and orientation. It invites to consider challenges within the broader context of purpose, values, and the human search for a life that feels coherent, fulfilling, and worthwhile.
