Elia is an exceptional group leader. He sets the stage for each weekly session by bringing his wise, calm presence and fresh vision which are all very natural to him. He is able to skillfully adapt to each member’s level of willingness to either reveal or withhold in a light and accepting way. He is an excellent listener, and often mirrors and validates a person at just the right time. All this is the Special Sauce for the group’s level of trust, bonding and success.
