Professional Guidance
for Personal Processes

Introduction Menu

Solving problems is only easy if we know how

Professional guidance has the purpose of accelerating our personal processes and improving the quality of our decisions.

Therapists and coaches use their neutrality and rationality to channel the emotions we bring to a session. Instead of telling us what to do, they induce us to detect the best solution in ourselves.

In order to realize a holistically functioning life, it is crucial to have every aspect of life somehow under control, so that we feel well in our skin and are perceived positively by others.

Sometimes it requires professional assistance to make this happen.

Concept Menu

Life is all about happiness.

Everything we do takes place in eight aspects of life which are related to our general well-being, our social relations, and our personal growth.

The eight aspects of life are:
Our health and energy, our life partner, our family, the society, our education, our occupation, and our assets.

In each of these specific aspects, we have certain strengths and weaknesses, seize opportunities, take risks, and develop potential and ambition. Depending on where we place our focus, we may be very successful in one aspect, while not meeting our expectations in another.

You can come to me with any issue on any aspect of your life. The aspect itself is secondary. It is about recognizing the tools and strategies you use in aspects where you succeed. My guidance will let you discover how to apply your own model of success to any troubled aspect of your life and make it work.

Sessions Menu

I see clients, not patients - I do coaching, not therapy - I provide assistance, not help.

As my clients live in different parts of the world, sessions usually take place online through Skype, WhatsApp, and other videoconferencing apps. Local clients I either see in my office, a place of their choice or in public places. If special training is required (e.g. for companies or groups), it is possible to travel to the desired city or country. The sessions are held in English and Spanish.

No matter where and how we meet and what your issue is about, solving a problem and going through a personal process always turns out to be an interesting journey of self-discovery. You may experience a new level of self-reflection or progress toward self-control. Or you develop more self-esteem, sharpen your perception or gain a higher awareness.

However, regardless of the individual objective, the process will always proceed as follows:

  • Diagnosis: We will analyze the current state of your situation, determine the origin of your problem, and align your expectations accordingly.
  • Planning: We will develop the required mindset, the necessary tools, and an applicable strategy with realistic goals.
  • Realization: We will create a step-by-step to-do list and put it into action.
  • Follow up: We will ensure that you master the situation and achieve the goals we set.

My personal aspiration is to provide fast, cost-effective, and 100% satisfactory solutions, along with a great overall experience.

About Menu

A long career requires permanent self-improvement.

I was born in Punto Fijo/Venezuela in 1956 and studied clinical psychology at Universidad Central de Venezuela (UCV) and music therapy at the University of Minnesota. My further training included, among other topics, Gestalt therapy as well as coaching at the Franklin Covey Institute.

Since 1990, I have been running my own private practice as a clinical psychologist and music therapist. Over the past fifteen years, my services have gradually evolved into consultative coaching with a progressive approach, an own methodology, and a modern mode of practice.

In 1998, I co-founded the Association of Venezuelan Music Therapists (ASOVEMUS), where I hold the role of Vice President to this day. Voluntarily, I worked for various foundations such as Fundación Alzheimer de Venezuela and FUNDELF, a foundation that dedicates to the development of autistic children in contact with dolphins. Starting in 2005, I served as director of IDIS, a pedagogical program to train caregivers for elderly people.

After leaving IDIS in 2010, I expanded my consulting services to global online coaching and internationalization in the field of training. In 2014 my first book "Criar Hijos con Astucia" was released in the Spanish language. It is a practical manual for parents about raising children in the contemporary world.

Currently, I am managing member at Aury Tovar - Consulting & Coaching LLC. The company is based in Minneapolis/USA, where I also reside.
