Psychologists

I am a psychologist and psychotherapist, and am trained in brief therapy, hypnosis and systemic therapy. I see adolescents, adults and couples for consultations that last between 45 and 60 minutes. Here are some issues that might prompt you to come to me: separation, difficult bereavement, unhappiness, depression, burn-out at work or in the family, anxiety, phobia, experiencing chronic pain, complicated and/or abusive family relationships, trauma, communication difficulties, feelings of isolation, dropping out of school, ...

Faire la démarche de consulter n’est jamais anodin. On arrive souvent avec des questions, un mal-être, parfois sans savoir exactement par où commencer. Je vous accueille dans un espace simple, chaleureux et sécurisant, où vous pouvez être vous-même, sans jugement. Ici, il n’y a pas de règles à « respecter » : vous pouvez retirer vos chaussures, vous asseoir par terre si vous en ressentez le besoin, prendre la place qui vous convient et vous sentir à l’aise.

J’accompagne les adultes et jeunes adultes dans différents moments de vie : périodes de transition, fatigue émotionnelle, questionnements personnels, expériences de perte, deuil, sentiment de décalage ou besoin de soutien.

Les consultations sont proposées au cabinet, à domicile dans les alentours de Mons, ou en visioconférence.

Je propose également de la walking therapy, des séances qui se déroulent en marchant, généralement en milieu naturel. Le mouvement et le cadre apaisant peuvent faciliter la parole et permettre d’aborder certaines choses autrement, tout en restant dans un cadre thérapeutique clair.

Mon parcours m’a menée à être au plus près de vécus humains parfois très intenses. En soins palliatifs, j’ai accompagné des personnes confrontées à la maladie, à la fin de vie, ainsi que leurs proches dans ce qu’implique le deuil. J’ai également travaillé avec des personnes en parcours d’exil, dont les histoires sont marquées par les ruptures, les déplacements et les enjeux culturels. Ces expériences ont profondément façonné ma manière d’être en relation : avec présence, sensibilité et respect de ce que chacun traverse, parfois sans pouvoir encore le dire.

Si vous ressentez le besoin d’un espace pour être écouté·e tel·le que vous êtes, vous êtes au bon endroit.

* À partir du mois d’avril, les consultations se feront uniquement en visioconférence pendant quelques mois, dans un cadre thérapeutique tout aussi adapté et sécurisant.

I am a psychologist who likes to enrich myself and explore the different dimensions of our human potential. My personal research and professional choices have put me in direct contact with different psychological approaches: group dynamics and organizational analysis, humanistic and mind-body approach, systemic analysis and therapeutic metaphor, sand tray, holistic massage, meditation, Tibetan yoga, positive psychology, art therapy, professional coaching. I also enjoy traveling and discovering different cultures (Europe, India, China, Tibet, Russia) and Eastern philosophy is part of my spiritual nourishment Admiring our human creativity, I have been involved in theater projects such as clowning and dancing, picked up brushes to play with the power of painting and dabbled in photography. Among my professional experiences, I have worked in the youth care sector with children, teenagers and families, in the disabled care sector with supervisory staff, in socio-professional integration with job seekers from different sectors of activity. I had the opportunity to write a career guidance program for women who wanted to work in so-called male professions. In parallel, I facilitated a private consultation and conducted interventions in asbl. In 2019, at 54 years old, I decided to create this project to accompany people and organized systems (entrepreneurs, services, small and medium-sized enterprises). This project is a synthesis of a rich and non-linear professional path. In terms of my values, I am guided by: - non-violence, inner disarmament, in fact I should speak of benevolence, but currently this word has too many different connotations and it leads to confusion in the social and economic world - dialogue and altruism : I combine these two values to give a direction to the dialogue and give it an operational aspect, a relational meaning: altruism - lifelong education - global responsibility for our words and actions. From this point of view, I move away from personal development focused only on the person. I am committed to a search for balance between private and professional life coupled with values such as patience, fair effort, tolerance, joy and taking global responsibility on an individual level. environmental responsibility: I would like to leave my children a place where they will be happy and where they can live in peace and flourish. These values intersect with my needs for freedom and fulfillment, creativity, harmony with others, inner peace, search for happiness, authenticity and fulfillment in my professional actions.
