Anna Dolabjian was born in 1957 in Armenia, then Soviet Republic. In 1978, after obtaining her higher education in pedagogy with specialization in Armenian, Russian, and English languages, Anna moved to Egypt by marriage, where she created her new family. A linguist by profession, she was eager to learn Arabic, the language of the country she would live in. Later, she obtained knowledge of French and some Spanish. Her multicultural background and multilingual communication skills provided a solid base for the final shift of her professional career to Life Coaching and Neuro-Linguistic Programming in 2015 with Robert Simic Institute in Dubai. In this, she followed her passion and calling of "Helping people reach their dreams!" Anna's continuous self-development through various holistic studies served as an added value toward her professional excellence, among which her next major achievement became Pranic Energy Healing in 2017 with Grand Master Choa Kok Sui Pranic Healing Center in Dubai, up to its Arhat level. The two alternative healing systems complement each other and create powerful results, be it with groups or with individuals. An effective communicator, listener, and speaker, with her natural intuitive gifts and high sense of empathy and respect for human emotions, she moved fast on her chosen path in three main directions: Training, Coaching, and Healing. In addition, her natural writing talent prompted her to put her experiences of diverse case success stories in writing and share them on social media. Her stories serve as metaphors and have a healing effect on their readers. A Life Coaching tool used tacitly to create a positive effect in an indirect way, thus spreading globally the goodness of her profession. Branded under the umbrella of Life Coaching since 2015, Anna has become an effective result-oriented Life Coach as well as a transformative Healer. She continues confidently walking her chosen path online and in the countries she travels, among them Armenia, United Arab Emirates, USA, Spain, and Italy, while Egypt remains her chosen home. As per Anna: "Coaching and Healing is not a job, it is a Mission for LIFE!"

Hello! My name is Amanda Maitland, RP, currently dedicated to the continuous exploration of individual mental health. I am keenly curious and innately interested in exploring the big questions in life, such as “why are we the way that we are?”, “who am I?”, “why do I feel/react this way?”, and so on. With a career trajectory (finally) aligned with my passions and purpose, I feel truly honoured and trusted to be a part of so many individual healing journeys.   As a Psychotherapist, my approach stems from a humanistic lens, believing each individual (including our realities and general brain development) is a result of our experiences and unique life journey. I perceive myself to be a co-pilot in the healing ‘adventure’, while we collaborate to address life challenges and work together to create positive, healthy changes. I am passionate about bringing authenticity to my sessions, with lightheartedness and humour, while encouraging individual creativity. My goal is to provide my clients with a safe and comfortable space, as I look forward to greeting each individual with openness, non-judgment, empathy and trust.   To provide a brief background, I was born and raised in Toronto, earning my BA in Psychology and Business. Since then, after a whirlwind of service-industry experience, I’ve worked my way up to the operations of a major company, which was my initial goal upon graduating as to gain exposure to how large businesses “work”. Those years have blessed me with a wide range of social experiences and professional relationships, but most of all the burning desire to actually do something worthwhile in this lifetime! My passion for women empowerment was especially ignited throughout these experiences.   I began my career transition to psychotherapy as I worked alongside a brilliant physician/entrepreneur, working on various healthcare consulting projects. My favourite part of this experience was leading a conference series titled “Accelerating Innovations and Investments for Rare Diseases”. Through these interactions with patients and working in the clinical atmosphere, I realized much of the human suffering I saw was psychological (rather than solely physiological), relating to the importance of mental health and wellness. This insight – that the wounds that one cannot see are just as important to remedy – has fueled my drive to follow my “calling” and make meaningful contributions to the field of Psychology.   My personal time is primarily spent on self-education and feeding my curiosity for a wide range of subjects through reading and personal research. I am keenly interested in exploring the new directions being advanced in self-awareness and self-image, specifically those that stem from the research of Dr. Maxwell Maltz on Psycho-Cybernetics. When I am given the gift of free time, I love new adventures, travelling and exploring, any nature related activities, family time, cruising in the mustang, and of course relaxing with my twin kitties, Zeus and Zena.
