Presentation

“Waiting for the world to treat you fairly because you are a good person is like waiting for a bull not to attack you because you are a vegetarian” Fritz Perls (founder of Gestalt Therapy)
Trained at the Belgian Institute of Gestalt Therapy in Brussels, my approach emphasizes the here and now.
In our work together, I invite you to fully connect with your sensations, emotions, and thoughts in the present moment. Together, we explore how you engage in your daily life and how you interact with your environment. I help you become aware of repetitive patterns and defense mechanisms that may influence your relationships, choices, and behaviors.
An essential aspect of our work involves examining your interpersonal relationships. We explore how you communicate, how you connect with others, and how you can build more authentic and fulfilling relationships.
In our approach, the emphasis is also placed on experimentation. I offer you exercises and role-playing scenarios to enable you to explore new ways of being, acting, and adjusting yourself. These experiences provide you with concrete opportunities to discover new resources within yourself and develop greater flexibility in your interactions.
I am here to support you throughout this process, offering caring and nonjudgmental emotional support.
I am engaged in regular supervision, which allows me to maintain a reflective practice.
I adhere to the Code of Ethics and Deontology of the Belgian Gestalt Society.
