My Approach

I am committed to offering an attentive, benevolent, and respectful presence, honoring your pace. My role is to support you towards greater inner stability, self-understanding, and freedom in your daily life.

A Humanistic and Integrative Approach

My approach is:

person-centered and focused on the quality of the relationship
integrative, combining several therapeutic tools
informed by attachment theory
enlightened by psychotraumatology
rooted in great attention to internal safety

Therapy: A Meeting Above All

Therapy begins with a meeting.

That's why I always recommend a first session. So you can sense whether this feel like a safe space for you, and I can see how I might best support you.

Manifestations of Attachment and Trauma

I am particularly attentive to attachment issues and traumas, which can manifest as:

Relationship difficulties
Stress or anxiety
Post-traumatic stress disorder
Addictions or eating disorders
Anxiety or panic attacks
Lack of self-confidence
Depression

The Body as Guide and Ally

In my approach, the body occupies a central place. It often carries the traces of past experiences: tension, fatigue, digestive problems, pain, disturbed sleep, or psychosomatic symptoms are sometimes signs of a nervous system trying to protect itself.

To address these manifestations and promote regulation, we can use different tools:

Psychoeducation

An approach that combines psychology and education to help you better understand, identify, and manage your psychological difficulties.

Creative Mediations

Use of expressive techniques to explore non-verbalized emotions and experiences.

Therapeutic Play

For children, a playful method to express their feelings and process their internal conflicts.

Grounding, Breathing, and Body Regulation Exercises

Gentle bodily practices to calm the nervous system, regain self-presence, and cultivate a sense of inner security.

These tools help to regain self-presence, calm the nervous system, and open up a clearer space to understand what is happening.

The Importance of Attachment and Security

Our internal security is built in our first attachment relationships, and then replayed throughout life. It influences how we connect, our bodily reactions, our impulses, our fears, and how we perceive ourselves.

Creating a safe space is therefore an essential pillar of my approach.

When the body and mind work together, what was once fixed can begin to transform. Tensions, blockages, or vital impulses become valuable benchmarks for understanding your history and moving forward at your own pace.

"The need for love is the foundation that binds us to one another. However gifted or skillful an individual may be, they cannot survive alone."

Dalai Lama

Sessions that adapt to you

A session may include:

a time for discussion

a gentle bodily exploration

putting thoughts, emotions, needs, or memories into words

concrete tools to regain stability and calm

Nothing is imposed: you remain free to accept, adjust, or refuse.

The intention is never performance, but a respectful exploration of what you are experiencing today.
