Presentation

Psychologist, I have over 14 years of experience in outpatient consultations in a hospital setting and 3 years in a Family Planning center. I see young adults, adults, seniors, and couples.
My therapeutic approach is inspired by analytic and systemic orientations. I am trained in Couples Counseling, helping relationships, and therapeutic interviewing. I am currently pursuing training in brief systemic therapy.
During consultations, I offer a setting focused on attentive and caring listening through interactive dialogue. In this way, I can intervene regularly with questions, asking you for clarification, highlighting important elements, and helping you put words to your emotions and better express what you feel...
This support aims to identify what is a source of suffering within you, but also to foster a better understanding of yourself and of the resources you have to move forward constructively.
Together, we will be able to define a framework and a frequency for the sessions, a framework that may take the form of psychological support or medium- to long-term therapeutic work, depending on your needs and the chosen orientation.
My practice leads me to provide psychological care in the following areas:
  • Depression, depressive states
  • Psychiatric disorders
  • Addictions (alcohol) - Management of chronic illness (fibromyalgia, ...)
  • Psychological support after a stroke, a head trauma...
  • Psychosomatic disorders
  • Burnout (professional and parental)
  • General malaise - Crises and tension related to the different stages of life
  • Relationship problems - Parenting support
  • Follow-up of young adults (questions about their future, independence, difficulties in their educational or professional path...)
  • Obesity, overweight (exploring difficulties in losing weight, accepting oneself, developing self-esteem...)
  • Post-bariatric surgery care
Couple difficulties (tensions, conflicts ....)
