Brief Description of Life Experience:

I am currently an operational expertise consultant in the area of learning. What is most important to me is to be an attentive ear for each person I meet. Just being there and welcoming them with all their baggage. The road of life sometimes leads us on difficult paths, but the fact of talking about it with a person who listens to us without judgment, is already a step forward. I have a family member with a mental health issue and I went through a recovery process with him. It was a difficult time for my family member but to be there, to accompany him without judgment and in all simplicity, makes us realize that we can get through this. There is always someone in our path who can make a difference.

If you need to talk, I have time to listen.

Sincerely,
Louise
