Majda is a holistic & integrative coach. She focuses on helping clients realign with their body and its inner guidance. She has studied movement, expression, psychology, and psy-shamanism (i.e. emotional recovery and the workings of the mind) for many years.

Although her qualifications came at a later stage, Majda has been on an intense journey of self-discovery and self-realization since age 16. Her clients testify to her sharpened perception which allows her to look into the depth of her clients’ reasoning and the truth in it, this helps them cleanse their preconceived beliefs and attitudes, which the mind has not registered yet.

Working with Majda will help you identify and release the stress in your body and mind. Her method is to help you recognize your inner critic and work with it, rather than object to it. She will listen and ask you questions that will thoroughly clarify your mind, desires, and hone in on your own inner guidance. She works with clients to help them discover the life they want to live and how to practice self-love throughout.

With such in-depth knowledge and expertise, she dives into your story and helps you go through and solve any obstacles, challenges, or problems you are facing. Majda has helped her clients feel more empowered, grounded, guided, and clear about anything they perceive in their world whether it be physical, mental, or emotional. Join her in this journey to improve your confidence, knowledge, and the communication you have with yourself and the outer world.

What I’m excited to bring to Fitcy Health members:
To Fitcy Health members, I am excited to bring them an understanding of their motivations, a healthy and centered mindset with inspiration, cognitive understanding of their motives and direction, confidentiality, approval, fusion, and support for their goals on the physical and material plane, as well as on their emotional one i.e. spiritual challenges/problems and journey, improvement in communication within any personal or professional relationships, knowledge, and last but not least orientation if needed. I’d like them to feel comfortable and safe with me, inspired and more knowledgable of their own, and the collective subconscious. I am excited to bring them one of the most revolutionary and useful methods and tests for self-discovery and direction. I am very perceptive, for me, it is important that any client gets more attuned to his or her body and its inner messages, more faithful, and softly experience emotional and psychological changes and transformation if needed. They will have the opportunity to get knowledge of their (deepest) needs and consciously choose to meet them, or openly and trustfully receive anything that God / Universe / Life brings. I’d like to help Fitcy Health’s members live more ecstatically, become in love with their bodies, mind, and soul, live in unity with their instincts, fears and most importantly have the benefits of all my teachings & experience.

What I’m excited to bring to Fitcy Health members:
I have been working in the wellbeing field for over 20 years. I am a firm believer that it is just as important to work on the mind as well as the body. It is a true saying that health is wealth and mental health is vital for overall wellbeing and happiness. Developing a positive mindset, and an attitude of inner peace promotes clarity, resilience and motivation. However, this isn’t always easy. The reality of life is that painful events do happen. Relationships may break up, loss of job, illness, death, stress, anxiety leads to a depletion of energy and lack of motivation. Recently, Covid 19 has impacted mental health significantly. Consequently, just getting through the day can feel challenging. In addition, if you are a woman going through menopause, this too can be an uncomfortable time. Sometimes all you need is a safe, confidential, accepting space where you can share your thoughts, and feelings, and a gentle, yet powerful nudge to keep you moving forward in the right direction. Each client is treated holistically as an individual and each session is personalised accordingly. I use different modalities within the sessions to maximise your results and outcome.

“Find ecstasy in life; the mere sense of living is joy enough.”

My name is Uros. I am an English-speaking graduate psychologist and licensed psychotherapist, and I offer short and long-term coaching, counseling, and psychotherapy. I am an experienced therapist who works with you. My experience and training allow me to provide a dynamic therapeutic experience that is personal to you. I have experience working with adults in individual and group therapy settings.

Therapy is a space where one is accepted without any conditions. Psychotherapy is a truly personal experience. Therapy is not something done to a person, but rather it is created by the person. And with that, working with you will significantly involve you.

By staying with you and holding all that you bring, I hope to support the growth of this personal process. Previously, I have worked with clients who have struggled with: anxiety, depression, low self-esteem, anger, trauma, relationships, chronic conditions, gender, and sexuality, as well as clinical mental health. Some of these struggles may be familiar to you. In my work, I listen to how these struggles (or any of life’s struggles) are real for you. That is, what makes them personal.

Working with you will be a new experience I look forward to having.

What I’m excited to bring to Fitcy Health members:
When I was 18 I discovered yoga. Back then, I immediately knew that it would be part of my life forever. Inside me I knew that I had a way of feeling centered, of coming back home… and that’s what yoga means to me: home. Sometimes we don’t feel as if we are one even with our own body and mind. In that state, we can’t feel like we belong to no family/ friends/ group.This lack of connection starts inside of us with OURSELVES. When we connect, we find space and we feel joy. We are then able to share this joy and end up building more and more joy. Life is such a blessing, sometimes we are not ready to experience it and fully receive it because we are “outside” of ourselves. I want to bring the Fitcy Health members back to themselves, find their home that I found with yoga.
