Health professionals for Couple Therapy near Kraainem

C’est vers l’âge de 10 ans que l’idée m’est venue d’aller vers un métier où je me mettrais au service des personnes en difficulté pour les accompagner, les soutenir vers un mieux-être.

L’élan d’aller à la rencontre de l’être humain dans sa diversité ne m’a depuis jamais quitté.

J’ai obtenu un bachelier d’assistante sociale et me suis formée durant 4 années à l’approche systémique aux cotés de Monsieur Mony ELKAIM entre autres.

Forte d’une longue expérience de 18 années à l’aide à la jeunesse, j’ai pu accompagner, soutenir des enfants et leur famille dans différentes épreuves de la vie telles que les deuils, les séparations, les conflits, les violences intrafamiliales, les négligences.

Créer des ponts et des balises autour de l’enfant, de sa famille et de ses différents milieux de vie a été au centre de mes préoccupations (écoles, institutions, hôpitaux, familles d’accueil,…)

Veillez à ce que chaque membre de la famille trouve sa juste place est une part importante de mon travail.

Je n’aurais pas pu faire cette belle et enrichissante expérience sans des formations continuées tant dans le secteur de l’aide à la jeunesse (questions de maltraitances) que du développement personnel et des différentes approches pour accompagner au mieux les familles.

Why see a psychologist? Throughout our lives, we are confronted with numerous difficulties that can arise at a personal, relational and/or professional level. It can happen that we feel overwhelmed and powerless in the face of these difficulties, and in such cases it can be beneficial to consult a psychologist. Consulting a psychologist can also be a way of working on yourself and getting to know yourself better. Being accompanied by a professional gives you an outside perspective and helps to identify and work on recurrent patterns in your life. I offer individual consultations in French, Dutch or English. An initial contact will enable us to get to know each other and to define your needs and objectives together. Then, a therapeutic follow-up can be set up to pursue these objectives.

As a psychologist and sexologist based in Brussels, I support your journey towards well-being, whether you're dealing with mental health challenges like depression, anxiety, bipolar disorder, phobias, or obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD). I also welcome individuals seeking self-discovery or simply looking to enhance their well-being, even without specific concerns.

I specialise in sleep disorders and difficulties related to sexuality, including sexual orientation, gender identity, and relationship problems. I offer caring and inclusive psychological support (LGBTQIA+), adapted to your specific needs.

My practice is based on cognitive-behavioral and emotional therapies, such as ACT therapy (acceptance and commitment therapy) and schema therapy, to help you build a more fulfilled and balanced life. My approach is centered on individuals and couples, with the aim of promoting your well-being and personal development. 

I have a master's degree in Clinical Psychology and Psychopathology from the ULB with a specialization in parenting support from the UCL. Using an integrative approach that reconciles psychoanalysis, behavioral and humanistic therapies, I propose that we work together in the understanding and resolution of problematic situations. Understanding the conceptual and cultural framework of others is the basis of the work I propose to undertake. Having worked in Latin America and practicing with expatriates, I attach particular importance to language, which can bring valuable subtleties to the therapeutic work. I receive in French as well as in Portuguese. The modalities and rhythm of the sessions will be determined during the first meetings where we will be able to identify the nature of the problem. I receive clients at the Mimosa Center in Brussels on Mondays and Saturdays for individual, family or couple counselling. My consultations are aimed at teenagers, adults and elderly people to whom I offer home follow-ups if necessary.
