(Prend toujours de nouveaux patients)

Peut-être êtes-vous confronté à des problèmes relationnels, de l’anxiété, des sentiments dépressifs, des variations de l’humeur, des traumatismes, des changements de vie importants (naissance, deuil, perte d’emploi,…) ou peut-être encore êtes-vous face à une perte de sens quant à votre vie, face à des questions existentielles qui vous paraissent insolubles ? Ces difficultés semblent prendre de plus en plus le dessus sur votre vie, vous ne savez plus comment garder la tête hors de l’eau et comment rejoindre des eaux plus tranquille ? Dans ce cas, il serait très certainement salvateur pour vous de trouver une personne qualifiée, authentique, bienveillante et empathique avec laquelle faire équipe dans le but d’effectuer un travail de soutien, de mobilisation de vos ressources et surtout un travail de transformation intérieure qui se répercutera sur tous ces aspects difficiles de votre vie. Si vous le désirez, je pourrais être cette coéquipière avec laquelle vous parcourrez le bout de chemin que vous souhaitez. En effet, quelles que soient vos difficultés, il existe une ou plusieurs techniques thérapeutiques, une ou plusieurs clefs pour vous en délester et vous rendre votre souveraineté.

Psychologue clinicien de formation, je propose principalement des thérapies analytiques, des thérapies de type cognitivo-comportemental et systémiques.  Je suis également formé à la prise en charge individuelle et collective des traumatismes psychiques qui peuvent intervenir après un événement à fort retentissement émotionnel. 

Mon expérience de plus de 20 ans m’a amené à travailler autour de nombreuses problématiques : troubles anxieux, dépendances, difficultés conjugales, troubles relationnels, deuils, toutes formes de situation de victimisation (agressions sexuelles, violences conjugales,  traumas…), burn-out, difficultés dans la sphère professionnelle, gestion du stress.

Je suis fortement sensibilisé aux questions concernant l’identité et/ou l’identité sexuelle. 

Je propose des accompagnements qui s’adressent à des adultes, des adolescents et des couples.  

During my studies in Psychology at the University of Liege, I was mainly interested in cognitive and behavioral psychology as well as in neuropsychology. These studies now form the basis of my practice with an adult population. Afterwards, while working, I continued to learn and train. Among others, I continued to learn about motivational interviewing, ACT therapy, mindfulness, psycho-education, ... As for my professional career, after several years of expertise for the justice system and work on addictions as a psychologist, my skills as a neuropsychologist have allowed me to focus on supporting people suffering from Alzheimer's disease (or another disease of the same type) as well as their loved ones and professionals in the field. At present, with the benefit of these varied experiences, I can offer you a tailor-made accompaniment, according to your needs. Whether it is a burnout, stress, anxiety, phobias, depression, bereavement, dependency or simply unhappiness, I can accompany you and, together, we will work to recover your well-being.

Licensed clinical psychologist for children, adolescents and families. I hold a bachelor's degree in psychology from Lewis & Clark College (Portland, OR, USA) and a master's degree in clinical psychology and psychopathology from the Université libre de Bruxelles (Brussels, Belgium). I am in the process of obtaining an additional master's degree in neuropsychology and am training in family and systemic psychotherapy. I offer individual, couple or family follow-up on Monday mornings in Mérode and Thursday afternoons/evenings in Messidor. I also offer consultations at home or by videoconference in certain cases individuals (perinatal care, reduced mobility, hospitalization, etc.) Consultations in French and English, by appointment. I adopt an integrative approach to psychotherapy drawing on different trends including psychoanalysis, systemics and person-centered humanist therapies. The proposed follow-up is co-constructed between the patients and myself in the most human, caring way and adapted to the specific needs of people. I am able to think about and work with you on questions related to: • your relationship, your couple • the desire or not desire for a child, medically assisted procreation • perinatal life • parenthood and the family in its variable forms • academic or social difficulties in children or adolescents (harassment, self-esteem, dropping out of school, mental health problems attention or learning, high potential) • difficult transitions (bereavements, separations, life changes) • behavioral disorders • attachment disorders and bonding problems • managing emotions • anxiety, depression, eating disorders, addictions • gender identity, sexual orientation • migration, socio-cultural adaptation I offer you a space of trust, completely confidential, which adapts to your context, your history and your temporality. A place where everything can be heard, everything can be said, where you can be surprised. By allowing you to put words, we mobilize your resources to try to open paths towards greater autonomy and adaptation. The meeting is privileged and respect, kindness and absence of judgment are law.

I have a degree in Psychological and Pedagogical Sciences (ULB-1994), and I completed my university career with a Certificate in Psychotherapeutic Clinics (ULB-1995). In order to be able to respond in a personalized and efficient way to requests, I continued to train myself in the tools of brief therapy both for individual sessions (LPNL, hypnosis, EFT, logosynthesis, ..) and for couple sessions (positive psycho-sexology).

I accompany you at your own pace, in welcoming and exploring your difficulties and resources, in connection with your history. Body awareness work (breathing, movement, voice) helps you to reconnect to yourself (sensations, emotions) and to release tensions. Verbalization and analysis allow you to make sense of your experience and to integrate the desired changes into your daily life. Individual or couple coaching: as a Marriage and Family Counselor, the relationship is at the heart of my practice. I offer support to explore together the different aspects of your relationship: identity, intimacy, sexuality, roles, parenting,... so that together you can find what suits you best. Support for which requests? o Problems and suffering in the relational, affective and sexual sphere. o Questions of parenthood. o Suffering at work, burnout situation, feeling of impasse. o Questioning about the life project/professional project. o Questions of identity, of the place and limits of self/others. o Hypersensitivity. Symptoms can be overwhelming emotions, anxiety and depressive disorders, stress, chronic tension, self-esteem disorders, etc.

My practice is based on collaboration with the patient in order to respond precisely to the request expressed and to set the objectives to be reached. I work through caring, confidentiality and deep respect by adopting an integrative approach and active listening. Depending on the request, therapies can be brief or prolonged.
