The insights I have gained from these experiences plus my deep joy in witnessing people\u2019s growth, earn me my clients\u2019 permission to support and challenge them in their pursuit of a fulfilled life. I have acquired a rich selection of \u2018tools\u2019 in the course of my professional development. Starting off as a teacher utilising music and movement for awareness training, I focused on adult education with an emphasis on body-language and self-perception. My Master\u2019s in Counselling led me to trauma-and relationship work and allowed me to witness some of the darkest corners of our human experiencing and how people get out of there. These experiences have deepened my trust in the human capacity to heal and move forward.<\/p><p>In 2021, I completed my training in spiritual direction with the Jesuits in Vienna, in order to offer guidance and support on their spiritual journey upon request.<\/p><p>Additionally, I have published an autobiographical novel and a book about my coaching model &#8220;The House with Many Rooms\u00ae,&#8221; which enrich my work and share my insights with a broader audience.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-0ddcbce elementor-hidden-mobile e-con-full e-flex e-con e-child\" data-id=\"0ddcbce\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\" data-settings=\"{&quot;background_background&quot;:&quot;classic&quot;,&quot;jet_parallax_layout_list&quot;:[]}\">\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-6fc51d1 e-flex e-con-boxed e-con e-parent\" data-id=\"6fc51d1\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\" data-settings=\"{&quot;jet_parallax_layout_list&quot;:[]}\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-con-inner\">\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-4d052ad elementor-hidden-mobile e-con-full e-flex e-con e-child\" data-id=\"4d052ad\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\" data-settings=\"{&quot;background_background&quot;:&quot;classic&quot;,&quot;jet_parallax_layout_list&quot;:[]}\">\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-5c37e0f e-con-full e-flex e-con e-child\" data-id=\"5c37e0f\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\" data-settings=\"{&quot;jet_parallax_layout_list&quot;:[]}\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-b595774 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"b595774\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Education\n<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-fa482c2 elementor-hidden-desktop elementor-hidden-tablet elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"fa482c2\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/marianneglaeser.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/elementor\/thumbs\/diploma-rct8opmfnhy5rcmqksdx417a2eql1214cacol9epik.webp\" title=\"diploma\" alt=\"diploma\" loading=\"lazy\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-41dfac1 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"41dfac1\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p class=\"\">Master&#8217;s Degree (MA) in Counselling: Manchester University, U.K<\/p><p class=\"\">Training and Accreditation in Life-Coaching: CoachU\/International Coaching Federation<\/p><p class=\"\">Teacher&#8217;s Degree for Education through Music and Movement: University of Music and Performing Arts, Vienna<\/p><p class=\"\">Trauma Counselling: Hap Training Institute USA: EMDR Training (\u2018Eye Movement Desensitization Reprocessing\u2019)<\/p><p class=\"\">Encounter-centered Couple Therapy: Hedy &amp; Yumi Schleifer, London<\/p><p class=\"\">Couple-Counselling: University of Central Florida<\/p><p class=\"\">Toastmasters International: Certificate &#8220;Competent Communicator&#8221;<\/p><p class=\"\">Training in &#8220;Spiritual Direction&#8221;: Jesuit Training Center Vienna<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Marianne Glaeser MA Personal Background I am Austrian by nationality and a global citizen by heart, having lived 15\u00a0years in\u00a0three different\u00a0countries of\u00a0Africa, 2 years in\u00a0Laos\/Asia and 4 years in Rome\/Italy.
