Instructor Bio
Elmira Strange is a Research Psychologist (MPhil), Cognitive Behavioural Therapist (Dip), and Certified Life Coach (Dip). She loves combining her passion for Psychology with Coaching.
The unusual bit: She was born in Northern Kazakhstan (where it's freezing cold in winter -40C), then moved to Russia, then to the United Kingdom.
The interesting bit: She had a life-saving surgery and near-death experience in 2012. The near-death experience made her realise that we are here to share our knowledge, help each other, and enjoy this life.
Her interests: Psychology, Online Entrepreneurship, Spirituality, and Paranormal phenomena (no wonder after my near-death experience!)
Her previous experience: While she was working at University (Wales, UK) as a Senior Researcher and Psychology Lecturer, her focus was on 'Researching Stress in Families of Disabled Children' where she had to learn what makes people stressed and unhappy. From that point on she knew that she wanted to work with people in therapeutic settings, helping them to find their path towards happiness. She then went to study Life Coaching and Cognitive Behavioural Therapy.
Since 2006 she has been working as an 'online entrepreneur' as well: writing blogs and books, whilst finding my own most enjoyable 'niche'. In her online courses, she combines her extensive knowledge of the 'building online business and marketing' and her passion for 'Psychology and Coaching'.
