Since then she has worked as a postdoctoral researcher in the department of Psychology in Fribourg Switzerland, and she is currently working in Starlab (www.starlab.es).

Her passion is consciousness and the human potential of it, accompanying people through combining holotropic breathwork with shamanic trance dance so that they find their own path in life discovering the huge healing potential of non-ordinary states of consciousness. She speaks greek, english, french, and spanish.
A GTT module open to everyone — no prior experience in Holotropic Breathwork or Zen required, yet offering a profound and deeply experiential journey on the Buddhist perspective on expanded states of consciousness. The module led by Zen Buddhist Master Dokushō Villalba will take place in English and Spanish.
