"Empowering minds through language and healing hearts through compassionate, holistic guidance for both humans and animals." - Marica
About Dear Marica
Based in Malta, I am a dedicated educator, holistic practitioner, and empathetic coach. My diverse career is fueled by two lifelong passions: language instruction and providing compassionate support to both humans and animals during times of transition, growth, and healing.
Over a 20-year career that began with teaching English to foreign students, I have dedicated myself to education and holistic support—eventually lecturing at the tertiary level and the University of Malta. My background is anchored by a Bachelor’s in English and Psychology, a Master’s in Philosophy of Education, and a PGCE, alongside specialized diplomas in Pet Loss Grief Coaching and Animal Naturopathy. Whether guiding a student toward language mastery or supporting a pet owner through profound loss, my mission remains the same: to offer clarity, comfort, and empowerment.
My Core Services
Business & General English Lessons
Leveraging over 20 years of experience as a Senior Lecturer, National Curriculum Expert, and educator across prestigious Maltese institutions, I provide tailored English language instruction. I help professional and general learners build confidence, refine communication skills, and achieve fluency for career advancement or personal growth.
Animal Naturopathy
Animals have always been my sanctuary and greatest teachers. My journey into animal naturopathy began in February 2022, when I adopted Max. He arrived with a severe, chronic allergy that local veterinary clinics simply couldn’t resolve. Every minor improvement was followed by an even worse relapse.
Driven to help him, I turned to natural remedies, holistic therapies, and tailored nutrition. That was the turning point—Max fully healed. Today, I blend evidence-based natural wellness with a deep intuitive connection to animals, offering holistic guidance to help your pets stay balanced, healthy, and truly thriving.
Pet Loss Grief Coaching
As a qualified Pet Loss Grief Therapist who has personally navigated the painful journey of pet loss, I offer a sacred, judgment-free space to help you heal. I blend my psychological background with deep empathy to help grieving pet parents process their pain, honor their animal’s memory, and gently construct a new reality.
Agony Aunt Guidance
Drawing from my background in Psychology, my time as a Therapeutic Facilitator at Caritas Malta, and a lifetime of intuitive awareness, I provide trusted, confidential guidance for those navigating life’s complex emotional landscapes. Grounded in faith, prayer, and discernment, I offer supportive insights to bring you comfort and clarity.
Let’s Connect: Whether you are looking to advance your professional English skills or seeking compassionate holistic support for yourself or your beloved pet, I am here to guide you.
