Relationships & Couples Coaching

"She's not intervening or trying to steer me somewhere. She holds me in a soft and compassionate space where I become aware of how hard I am on myself, and that hardness turns into softness. 

She has a deep understanding of the impact of these experiences on individuals and families, and she is able to provide compassionate and supportive care. She is also a highly creative facilitator, and she is able to design and deliver interventions that are tailored to the specific needs of her clients.

She’s very knowledgeable and has done a lot of research on topics such as narcissistic abuse and emotional neglect. She opened my eyes to things I was not able to see and accept about myself.

Her coaching is very much on point: she notices my relating patterns and suggests resources to address my core challenges and help me understand myself better. I think Jura is very real with me, and I feel very well understood by her. I tend to disassociate, and I don't always know how I feel in the moment. Jura brings my awareness, helps me stay present, and have a sense of groundedness in my experience.

I developed a different attitude towards my smoking and drinking; I started to treat myself with gentle compassion. When I deflect, distract, or blame others, Jura gently shows me a way to get back to my center, and later, I know how to do it on my own. I think Jura is very present. She leads by example, and simply relating to her is already helpful. She gives space for people to safely show up with seemingly the most horrible aspects of themselves and start healing.

Jura gently encouraged me to try on new behaviors as an experiment, which at first seemed outlandish to my people-pleasing parts. However, after putting this into practice, I noticed shifts in patterns that I’d been struggling with for years. I've begun to feel much more empowered, especially when asking for what I want or need from others.

She has assisted me in exploring and understanding myself better, ultimately helping me befriend all parts of my persona. Additionally, she helped me embody and process my scary yet extraordinary psychedelic experience from the past that was lingering in the back of my mind. Also, Jura’s guidance has been invaluable when dealing with my insecurities in intimacy and sexuality. What stands out for me in sessions with Jura is her efficiency - she knows exactly what and when to say to help me access, express, and integrate my emotions effectively.

She has a deep understanding of the human mind. I had difficulty recognizing my emotions and was afraid to express myself in my relationship. She gave me the tools to increase my sensory awareness and the language to communicate clearly. I gained the courage to show up how I am. I feel relieved now being more myself and expressing what truly happened inside me in my relationship and in my daily life. It feels so much better to be loved by my partner for who I am and not for what I thought I should be.

A friend referred me to Jura at a time of my life when I was experiencing a lot of distress and sadness. Jura listened to me attentively and coached me to help me understand those feelings and release the seemingly never-ending sadness. Jura also helped me to identify “red flag” situations in dating that eventually served me well in looking for a future relationship. Now I am much more balanced and hopeful.
