I have had the pleasure to be mentored by Raphael for over 15 years. What is unique about Raphael is his total acceptance on a very deep and profound level of who I am as a person making me feel genuinely loved and appreciated. He imparts the pure values and wisdom an Artist needs in order to truthfully explore and develop their talent. He has helped me believe in my ability, check my ego and enjoy the process. As a result I am whole, and I would not be where I am today both personally and professionally without Raphael's guidance and friendship. A rare, sparkling gem.

When I met Raphael, I immediately understood that we speak the same language. Every meeting was as a breath of fresh air. They speak the language of love, and to be able to love everyone and everything in this world is a rarity. Each session with Raphael is a step towards yourself, where you see love and unity with the universe. Thank you so much, Raphael!
Всего одна сессия с Рафаэлем дала мне так много. Он невероятно проницательный и тонкий человек, для которого душа всегда стоит на первом месте. Это означает, что он поможет пройти через сложные отношения с собой, но будет всегда вести навстречу твоей душе. Это незабываемо! Столько любви в одном человеке. Столько возможностей с его помощью разглядеть любовь к себе. Рафаэль для меня большой ориентир работы над собой и пример того, как жить сердцем.

Raphael was my teacher, support and friend during a time in my life when I didn’t believe in myself. They believed in me and became the light that helped me to find my joy again.

Anyone who ever gave psychotherapy a real try will know how tricky it can be to find someone that you click with in therapy sense.
Even though it is personal, I can’t imagine Raphael not being the right fit for anyone.
Raphael is a respectful, supportive, and genuine therapist. The person with a great passion, impressive and always expanding knowledge and so much love.
It is a real pleasure to be guided and supported in a journey of Mindfulness, by such a genuine and wise person as Raphael.
I feel lucky that I have met Raphael because what he has taught me and how he continues to support me allows me to live the most satisfying life possible

Working with Raphael has been a huge joy and personal gift of long-lasting profound transformation. Their personal integrity, creative approach and unique self-expression and authenticity is a rare combination that has refreshed my soul, renew confidence in my ability to trust myself as well as restore faith in the potential for humankind-ness and compassion.
Raphael helped to save my own life and take steady steps back out into the world. Resultingly, I have found my own Kintsugi, valuing strength in my own vulnerability. Like a crescent moon, knowing you don’t have to be whole to be beautiful.
On a personal and international level, with Raphael, I feel it is all able to be healed.

A very well-structured and well-delivered Mindful Self-Compassion course that manages to impart very powerful exercises and practices in a way that is gentle and not overly prescriptive; rather it is empowering, nourishing and offering practical tools from within oneself to find meaningful new ways to live. The course embraced participants from a variety of backgrounds and levels of previous experience; and it seemed that everybody who attended had liberating breakthroughs in the areas they were working on.
I’d thoroughly recommend this course to those who are open to working on themselves to discover new ways of living life in a more expansive and fulfilling way.

I deeply appreciated Raphael and (co-teacher) Siri’s effort:
The Mindful Self-Compassion course materials are well prepared. The 2-hour zoom meeting is well structured. And most important, both teachers are knowledgeable yet humble; and allow lots of space.
The course itself offered me a box of tools for self-compassion practice afterwards, which I would love to dive a bit further into and practice more.

The course helped me to change my behaviour and particularly where old habits are usually entrenched. Being kinder to myself makes a difference to the way now I treat others, which is very important.

Raphael is an excellent teacher, listener and explainer. They got us all through some strong emotions that occurred during sessions.

I truly enjoyed the Mindful Self-Compassion course: It made me realize that what I see as imperfections I could also see as beautiful traits when I add self-compassion.
