Hello

I’m Rossella, originally from Italy and warmly raised in the amazing island Sicily.
I am a coach trained with the Co-Active coaching, a speech pathologist with a MA since 2019, and background in professional acting and mindfulness.

My Story

As a coach, I have helped clients overcome workplace speech anxiety, enabling them to gain confidence and greater awareness of their communication style.
I’ve also worked with leaders to enhance their vocal presence and impact, guiding them to become more effective communicators.
These experiences resonate deeply with my own journey.
At 18, I left my family in Sicily and moved to Rome to study acting at a theater academy.
Back then, I often felt alone and insecure, often seeking approval from others. The only place I truly felt safe was on stage, where I could “fake it” and use the tools I’d learned to communicate with impact.
One day, before a photoshoot, a photographer told me, “From the way you speak, I can tell you don’t trust yourself.” In that moment, I froze. It hit me: “People can see my insecurity. I need to change, but this time, for myself.”  That realization marked the beginning of my transformative journey. I immersed myself in communication, focusing on its science, hands-on experience, and personal growth. A year ago, during a workshop, a student told me, “You have a strong presence. You look determined and passionate.” That feedback reflected how far I had come.
I discovered that my true fulfillment comes from connecting with others and helping them fully express themselves while communicating.

When I coach my clients, I believe it’s important to consider the whole person, exploring their emotions, thoughts and desires in depth.

In addition to coaching, I provide speech therapy in Italian, English, and Dutch within international schools, online, and at Logopedie en Stotterpraktijk in Zeeheldenkwartier.
In my free time, I recharge through Jeet Kune Do, yoga, and long walks in nature.
Let’s connect and explore how we can work together to enhance your communication skills and express your true self!
