Stéphane Diriweachter, Swiss Olympic coach, Director of the Centre National de Performance Romandie (CNP), Athletics, Aigle
“Thanks to Arode's support and the trust established between us, I was able to rely on an external expertise. I developed new skills and acquired invaluable tools that have helped me achieve my coaching objectives and improve my communication with athletes.
Her attentive and personalized approach has enabled athletes to identify and overcome their blockages effectively. Her practical advice and consistent support have boosted their confidence and motivation. I highly recommend her coaching to anyone seeking to achieve their goals and grow personally.”
Cédric Doutaz, Vice-president, Geneva Table Tennis Institute (ITTG), Geneva
“Since 2017, our table tennis academy has greatly benefited from the expert advice of a recognized professional, much to the satisfaction of our athletes. For some, mental fragility has been transformed into unexpected strength.
In addition to offering personalized follow-up sessions in her office, Mrs Andreetto attends some of our major competitions to provide a more practical, hands-on approach. Furthermore, our coaching staff regularly participates in her highly valued training courses, which help to ensure effective coordination among all involved.”
Swann Oberson, ex-Olympic Swimmer, Head of training, Swimsports, Geneva
“Arode has been a valued member of our team since 2018. Her professionalism and engaging personality make her a trainer appreciated by all.
With her extensive practical experience, combined with her strong theoretical knowledge, she delivers courses that are both enriching and inspiring for everyone.”
Jean Lagier, Swiss Olympic trainer, Geneva Coachs Association President, Geneva
“Thanks to her expertise and innovative ideas, Arode brings a highly practical approach. She skilfully combines theory with practice, making her interventions both effective and highly valued by all participants.
In a time when it is increasingly vital to surround athletes with a multidisciplinary team that works cohesively toward a common goal, it is essential to collaborate with expert mental coach like her, who exemplify and promote the values of harmonious coordination.”
Elisa P., elite biathlete, Geneva, Switzerland
"If I had to summarize my mental preparation during overtraining in one word, it would be 'outlet.' I would arrive feeling stressed, anxious, sad, or even hopeless, and after an hour, I would leave feeling more confident and sure of myself. It not only helped me put words to what I was feeling and gave me the tools to face this period of doubt, but I also learned a great deal about myself, which will be very useful for the rest of my career.”
Samuel F., professional football player, Challenge League, Geneva
"I am very happy to have been coached by Arode; I truly felt a before-and-after difference. I used to be introverted and often put too much pressure on myself to perform perfectly. With this guidance, which came when I was 18, I was able to take a real step forward, gaining maturity and great self-confidence. It was extremely beneficial in helping me better manage my emotions and feel more comfortable on the field. It also helped me during a long injury period, allowing me to be ready to return to my best level. I have only continued to progress over the past few years."
Jean-Pierre L., international Wheelchair tennis player, France
“I greatly value Mrs Andreetto clear and pragmatic approach, which perfectly aligns with her straightforward character. She avoids long speeches and vague theories, focusing instead on attentive listening and asking insightful questions.
This allows her to pinpoint the core issues and identify what is holding us back. She then provides effective, impactful solutions that are straightforward and easy to implement.”
Parents of David, junior basketball player, Lausanne
"During our first meeting, we were impressed to see David, who is usually reserved, interact with Mrs Andreetto as if they had known each other for years.
After just four sessions, the effects of his work with her became obvious. David began playing basketball with more confidence and ease, and at home, he expressed himself more freely. His academic results also improved significantly.
During our stay in the USA, where David decided to go to continue his studies and pursue his passion for basketball, his commitment, exemplary behavior, and outstanding performance was unanimously praised.
We wish to express our deep gratitude for her exceptional work. Her kindness, professionalism, and unique approach have helped our son unlock his full potential. David has become a confident and thriving young man, excelling both in his studies and in his passion for sports."
Organisations
G.F., Head of Department, international Swiss bank, Geneva
“I had the opportunity to attend the training on pressure management. A particular emphasis is placed on emotional regulation and on approaches that promote autonomy and accountability among employees.
By applying the various tools, I have noticed a clear increase in motivation and a more positive energy within my teams, which is reflected in improved concrete results.
I have developed a better understanding of my own emotions, which allows me to manage conflict situations more effectively, with a constructive, positive, and calmer approach.
I found key insights that open the door to a more human approach to performance while fostering motivation and engagement.”
Christian M., head of team, Wealth management, Geneva
"I was struck by the analogy between sports coaching and management coaching.
Ultimately, like a sports coach, a manager oversees men and women competing in their respective fields and must manage the pressure on both themselves and their team.
In both sports and business, mental strength plays a decisive role, and Mrs. Andreetto expertly translated her experience into my professional field.
This training was extremely valuable for both managing my own stress and improving communication with my collaborators."
David P., Team Leader, international Swiss bank, Geneva
“I was encouraged to explore my emotions, gain a better understanding of myself, and develop practical strategies.
This program has enabled me to foster a culture of positive feedback in my day-to-day work.”
Daniella G., head of team, Wealth management, Geneva
"When I was appointed head of a Wealth Management team, I was fortunate to have the support of Mrs. Andreetto.
Among her many contributions, she helped me overcome the well-known 'impostor syndrome' and provided me with the tools to lead my team with greater confidence and ease.
Her exceptional listening skills and sharp understanding of both situations and people make her an outstanding and highly effective coach.
She has played a significant role in my professional success and overall sense of well-being."
Liliana F., client advisor, Wealth management, Geneva
”I discovered aspects of myself that I hadn’t suspected and identified my strengths as well as areas needing improvement.
Each session was a true moment of transformation. The practical exercises and deep discussions helped me make significant progress.
She also provided me with tools, techniques, and recommended readings that I continue to use to maintain my progress."
Living Arts
Mathilde C., professional musician, Lausanne
"Mental coaching has allowed me to approach the guitar from a new perspective and with more enjoyment.
I acquired many practical tools to prepare for performing in public, organize my work, maintain a positive inner dialogue, understand my limits, and trust myself.
This is how I reinforced my strengths while learning to know myself better.
I particularly appreciated how Arode's approach is highly personalized. Today, I am more independent and confident, and I know what I need to achieve my goals.
I have finally found my place in this demanding field.”
Raphaël B., theatre student, workshop participant, Martigny
"I was happy to have a free space where we could talk and listen to each others, with a theoretical and scientific starting point.
It was a moment where we felt free to express whatever we wanted, without any pressure.
We could come as we are, without being judged.
These workshops from Arode have been really beneficial to me; I left feeling better.
In the world of the performing arts, they are essential for mental health and should be held more often to better care for artists."
Michel Toman, co-director, Les Alambics, Theatre School, Martigny
“Arode Andreetto played a pivotal role in developing this innovative pilot project in collaboration with the students.
The project aimed to enhance students' psychosocial skills, with a strong emphasis on their well-being throughout their studies.
We would like to commend Arode for her professionalism, creativity, and dedication during her assignment.
Her expertise, attentiveness, and kindness were deeply valued by both the students and the teaching team."
Baptiste M., Geneva University Student
"When I began my demanding university studies, I felt lost and unanchored. I needed honest and objective guidance from someone outside my circle of friends and family.
Arode provided exactly that. She grounded me in reality and helped me gain a deeper understanding of myself, a crucial step for navigating the unknown.
Thanks to her support, I’ve been able to approach challenges with greater confidence and calm, positively impacting both my studies and my life as a whole."
