OUR TOOLS
Evidence-based techniques, innovative tools and specialised protocols
ADVANCED AND INNOVATIVE TOOLS
Virtual reality and immersive coaching
One innovative and effective tool we use is virtual reality, developed on the basis of neuroscientific research and validated in the professional field through immersive experiences designed to foster personal and professional development.
Through the use of metaphor, multi-sensory environments and active involvement of the nervous system, the person can experience behavioural, cognitive and emotional alternatives in a protected context, facilitating the creation of new neural pathways.
Our protocols include:
- 3 specific courses for stress management
- 9 protocols with immersive metaphors, designed to develop competences related to professional well-being and relationships, such as self-confidence, the ability to cope with difficulties with resilience, emotional management, adaptability to changing contexts and an enhanced sense of self-efficacy.
Thanks to our joint expertise in the fields of coaching and psychology, we use virtual reality to facilitate a transformative pathway, allowing not only the consolidation of new skills, but also a profound change in the way one faces professional and personal challenges.
Through multi-sensory stimulation (sight, hearing, touch, smell), immersive experiences create deep anchorages, making it easier to apply in real life.
EMDR – Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing
EMDR is a protocol that helps to reduce emotional activation related to traumatic, microtraumatic or otherwise psychologically impactful experiences, favouring a rebalancing of emotional and cognitive responses.
In fact, we often find ourselves reacting automatically to certain emotional triggers, repeating non-functional patterns. Thanks to this tool, it is possible to reprogram the emotional response, rework emotional experiences and even reduce sensitivity to the same previously disturbing stimuli. This can allow one to deal with situations with greater awareness and freedom of choice.
EMDR is particularly effective in overcoming emotional blocks and relationship difficulties. It can foster a greater sense of control over one's reactions, improve stress management and enhance the ability to deal with complex situations with greater clarity and awareness.
Ericksonian hypnosis
Ericksonian hypnosis is a methodology centred on the use of metaphorical and suggestive language, which allows the person to access inner resources that are often unavailable in full rational consciousness.
In our work, we use techniques of conversational hypnosis and guided imagination to facilitate the change of internal states, promote emotional regulation and foster the transformation of limiting beliefs.
It is a valuable resource at times when resistance needs to be loosened or new possibilities for vision and action need to be activated.
NLP - Neuro-Linguistic Programming
Neuro-Linguistic Programming (NLP) is an approach to change based on the observation of language, mental and behavioural patterns. Its techniques, when used with rigour and depth, make it possible to identify and modify dysfunctional patterns, enhance communication and facilitate the achievement of goals.
In our practice, we integrate NLP and Ericksonian hypnosis tools into coaching courses when they can help increase personal effectiveness, emotional management or decision-making clarity.
Mindfulness Protocols
Mindfulness is a training in mental presence and non-judgmental awareness. In particular, we use:
- the MBSR (Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction) protocol, scientifically validated for managing stress and emotional reactivity;
- the MBSC protocol, geared towards cultivating a stable and gentle mental presence towards oneself, particularly effective in high-pressure contexts.
These tools are included in coaching courses as transversal resources to improve concentration, resilience and mental well-being, and strengthen the ability to make lucid decisions even under complex conditions.
Voice Dialogue - The Psychology of Selves
Voice Dialogue is an innovative method based on the psychology of selves, which allows you to explore and harmonise the different parts of your personality. Each individual is composed of multiple inner aspects - some more developed and dominant, others less expressed but rich in potential.
Thanks to this approach, it is possible to become aware of internal dynamics, reduce inner conflicts and expand one's repertoire of responses to everyday contexts, both personal and professional.
The main benefits of Voice Dialogue include:
- Better management of emotions and internal conflicts
- Improved authenticity in relationships
- Development of personal leadership and decision-making capacity
- Increased self-awareness and resourcefulness
- Increased flexibility in adapting to complex situations
This technique is particularly useful for those who wish to understand and transform behavioural automatisms, enhance their emotional balance and increase their sense of mastery in different areas of life.
ASSESSMENTS
TOOLS TO GUIDE AWARENESS AND CHOICES
In our approach, assessment tools do not serve to 'label', but to bring clarity and awareness. They provide an objective and scientific basis for exploring personality characteristics, motivational and behavioural dynamics, strengths and areas for development.
We use psychodiagnostic and managerial tools, selected according to client demand and professional context, including:
- Hogan Assessments: to explore values, leadership potential and possible derailment risks in work performance.
- TTI Success Insights: to analyse behavioural style, motivation and interpersonal skills, useful in team building and management development contexts.
- iEQ9 (Integrative Enneagram): an advanced tool for understanding emotional dynamics and decision-making patterns, useful in paths of self-leadership and deep personal development.
- SHL: for predictive assessments of performance and potential, used in organisational and talent development contexts.
- TSI-2 (Trauma Symptom Inventory): a clinical tool, used sensitively and competently, that allows us to map stress symptoms and micro-traumas that can also affect the person in the work environment.
These tools are integrated into individual coaching or assessment as a basis for a more complete and careful reading of the person's situation and resources.
