Case Study 1

Gail, self-employed and in her early thirties, had an on-again, off-again relationship with the same man, Scott, for almost 8 years. Although she is established in her own business and works in the same office space as Scott, she was feeling that her indecision was affecting too many areas in her life.

Gail is an intelligent and independent woman who had 'made it' on her own, and she was becoming more conscious of how complicated her life had become due to her unwillingness to commit one way or the other to her relationship. Working with Dimitra, she quickly realized what her indecision and lack of commitment was costing her peace of mind and lack of direction.

Working with Dimitra enabled Gail to distinguish what it was she truly wanted in her life by clarifying what was standing in the way. Once Gail identified where her own responsibilities lay and that ultimately she had a choice about how her life was going to pan out, she gained the confidence to plan for and act upon the life she desired.

After only six sessions, Gail learned and practiced the art of saying 'no' to situations that would only bring more stress into her life. She also started to be more spontaneous and adventurous, which added a new dimension to her relationship. In fact, Gail realized how much Scott meant to her and they were married a few months later.

Case Study 2
Maggie was a security supervisor in her late twenties with a passion for music and songwriting. When she started coaching with Dimitra, she just couldn't see how she was going to fulfill her lifelong dream of singing and composing her music. There were just too many obstacles, not to mention a whole lot of fear around making such a drastic change to her career.

Working with Dimitra gave Maggie the opportunity to map out a realistic and workable plan to achieve her goal of working in the music industry. In the end, Maggie needed to decide where her priorities were and what she was willing to do to make her dream come true.

In only a couple of months, Maggie quit her job, enrolled in a music college, and moved to a house closer to the college. She also started sending her resume around to various music industry places, she was recording a song with a band, and a music producer was interested in her songs and music.

Case Study 3
Fiona is a self-employed commercial consultant in her early 50's with a busy work schedule that takes her all around Sydney. She also has elderly parents who she regularly visits and takes care of. Between her work and family commitments there wasn't much time for Fiona to take care of herself and take time out.

When Fiona started coaching with Dimitra she wanted to focus on starting up a health program that she could easily incorporate into her busy lifestyle. Dimitra encouraged her to start with small weekly steps and to slowly build up to her ideal balance of exercise, a healthy eating plan, and work.

Although Fiona had embarked on other health and/or weight loss programs before, she would lose interest and give up. One of the key things Dimitra helped her develop was an ability to recommit to herself and get back on track faster than what had been possible in the past.

After working with Dimitra, Fiona had lost 3kg, was walking and swimming on a regular basis, and was also scheduling 'down time' during the week where she could just relax and have some fun or catch up with friends. Fiona accomplished all this while still managing to look after her parents and her clients.
