Presentation
I am François Pertel-Pacheco, Franco-Peruvian, born in 1972.
Initially trained in directing and acting, I worked for about fifteen years in the field of theater before continuing my path in organic catering and baking — other ways of working with matter, presence and connection.
Through these experiences, one constant has emerged: a taste for care, for the living, and for transformation.
My own therapeutic journey has profoundly marked me and has gradually led me to accompany others in turn.
I am a Gestalt Therapy practitioner, trained at the Belgian Institute of Gestalt Therapy (IBG) and a member of the Belgian Society of Gestalt Therapy (SBG), within which I participate in the Coordination Circle.
I am engaged in supervision and intervision, and I am pursuing continuing education in various approaches such as Somatic Experiencing, IFS (Internal Family Systems), ICV (Lifespan Integration), Family Constellations, Shamanic Trance and MLC (Method of Releasing Muscular Armoring), in order to deepen the healing of developmental trauma.
I am also training as a Doula in order to care, again and always, for the emergence of life.
I am neither a psychologist nor a doctor: I do not make diagnoses, do not prescribe and do not give advice. My support is based on listening to the body, the relationship and the inner movement, to support a process of exploration and transformation starting from what is being lived here and now.
I believe that each of us carries within us a life force that seeks to unfold, to rediscover its own movement, and to reconnect with the living.
My approach is rooted in humanistic and existential Gestalt, but remains open to other currents, at the crossroads of psychology, neuroscience, philosophy, and anthropology — so many perspectives that speak to the universal processes of life.
A space to understand, breathe, and bring movement back into your life.
Sessions take place face-to-face or by video call.
