Health professionals for Depression treatment in Etterbeek

As a licensed clinical psychologist, my therapeutic practice is based on a holistic approach to the individual, taking into account emotions, thoughts, body, behavior, spirituality and environment. My background has given me clinical experience in various fields: chronic stress, burn-out, depression, anxiety, cancer, trauma, chronic pain and psychosomatics. The therapeutic work I propose is based on brief therapy and reassociative trauma psychotherapy (RTTP). RTP is a therapeutic tool practiced with the help of strategic conversational hypnosis used for the desensitization of traumatic events whose goal is to reassociate and rebalance the different cognitive, emotional and physical perceptions in order to decrease the traumatic load. During a session, we dialogue and co-construct in order to create the conditions of change that you want to see in your life, the objective being that you can regain control over your emotions and physical sensations. My professional and personal experience also allows me to offer you mind-body tools such as relaxation, breathing, bodyscan and yoga, and psychoeducation if you suffer from chronic pain. I invite you to express yourself in a caring, empathetic and non-judgmental listening space in order to explore together what you are experiencing and to offer you a therapeutic accompaniment that takes into account your problematic and your singularity. I offer consultations for adults, in individual interviews, going through the following difficulties - Chronic and psychosomatic pain (fibromyalgia, polyarthritis, headaches, back pain, gastrointestinal disorders,...) - Anxiety, phobias - Chronic stress, exhaustion, burn-out - Difficulties related to hypersensitivity. More generally, I accompany and support you in your personal, relational, marital and professional difficulties in order to remobilize your resources and find motivation, joy of living, self-confidence and self-esteem.

Each person’s healing path is unique, and my approach is rooted in empathy, creativity, and evidence-based techniques, helping you navigate challenges with self-compassion and resilience.

If you're looking for a space to explore, express, and heal, I’d be honored to walk this path with you.

With a multicultural background and multiple experiences abroad, I would like to let me guide you through different processes of reconnecting with one’s self, understanding your path, overcoming challenges in your everyday life, going through an overwhelming period, wanting to communicate better with your partner, approaching burnout, or experiencing high levels of anxiety or depression.

Silvana Alecu, psychiatrist, is a Doctor of Medicine from the University of Medicine and Pharmacy "C.Davila" Bucharest and specialized in Psychiatry from the University Paris-Sud. She deals with individual, couple and family therapies. She welcomes all adults and adolescents to her practice in Etterbeek and speaks French, English and Romanian.

As a certified clinical psychologist (ULB), I work with teenagers & adults using an integrative approach, which draws from EMDR, psychoanalysis & systemic psychology. My practice provides culturally adapted care, is trauma-informed & person-centered, with an awareness & sensitivity around questions of identity. My professional experience within psychiatric services has trained me to welcome a multiplicity of internal conflicts, with an active listening to the person’s vitality, resourcefulness & creativity. In addition, my practice as a dance therapist brings in the somatic dimension, which considers the body as a person’s moving memory. Sessions can be held in 5 languages: English, French, Greek, Portuguese, Spanish. The therapeutic encounter aims to create a caring space where you could gain momentum to deploy & express yourself, in order to explore your life narrative & what is currently preoccupying you. We will work together to find more “degrees of freedom” in your life & to digest the experiences you carry within you. I invite you to a space of empowerment & reappropriation, where the rewriting of your narrative opens up different doors within you. The psychotherapeutic tools I propose come from the systemic approach (family coat of arms, genograms…), as well as the somatic approach (breathwork, progressive muscle relaxation, mental visualisations…), which will also reinforce your resilience. I accompany & support you in what preoccupies you, your inner conflicts & your life questions, in order to reinvent together, in individual consultations: • a space for you, where you may breathe & take a step back • a space for emotional expression • a way to let your fears & anxieties exist, translate them & find solace • a way to pass through trauma or complex trauma • your relationship to others & to the world • your identities & how they are woven together • the meaning of specific events that have stayed with you • your vital pillars, to strengthen your resilience • the way you feel in your body & you listen to your body • your scripts/roles in your family or group dynamics • how you listen to your needs & the way you place your limits in your life. Depending on your request, I offer occasional or more sustained sessions of 45 min.

I am a registered clinical psychologist, graduated from the Université Libre de Bruxelles, and I have at heart to understand the human being and to help him/her as well as possible to face the events of his/her life. The individual is not reduced to his dysfunctions but is in constant evolution in his search for well-being and fulfillment. In the continuity of Carl Rogers' humanistic psychology, I believe in the valorization of each person's potential and in his or her ability to integrate and overcome difficulties. The proposed consultations take place in a warm, caring and non-judgmental environment, where all subjects can be discussed. In this space co-constructed with the patient, my role will be to accompany you in exploring and expressing your experiences, but also to welcome and help you understand the difficulties you are facing at this particular moment of your life. As a therapist, it is essential for me to offer you an intervention that takes into account the uniqueness of each person. Depending on your request, the treatment can be punctual or prolonged, adapted to your rhythm and your real needs. I propose accompaniment for all adults in suffering for different requests such as: relational or emotional difficulties, search for meaning, self-esteem, ill-being, management of stress/anguishments, depressions, dependencies...

My clinical training began as an intern in clinical psychology at the psychiatric unit within "Hospital General de Agudos Dr. Teodoro Alvarez" (Buenos Aires, 4years), ending up as Instructor of interns (1 year). Along the following decades, I've been working in the private medical health sector (+10 years) I consider continuous training as the basis of my clinical performance being my practice oriented by evidence-based approaches, such as cognitive behavioral treatments (CBT), and neuropsychology applied to mental health problems. During the meetings, a central place is given to defining problems, goals and approaches. As a team of work both client and therapist, work collaboratively with an active participation in the process. I´m a native Spanish speaker. I speak English as a second language and french as a third language. Conventionné.

Diplômé depuis 1998, j'accompagne toute personne confrontée à des difficultés, en situation de mal-être ou de souffrance, quelles qu’en soient les manifestations ( difficultés relationnelles ou professionnelles, anxiété, angoisse, isolement, addiction, phobies, dépression, troubles du sommeil, burn-out …). L’accompagnement se fait par une écoute attentive visant à permettre un apaisement ainsi que la découverte de solutions personnelles. Le suivi peut être ponctuel ou engagé sur du plus long terme en fonction des besoins et des attentes de chacun. Je reçois les adultes et les adolescents.Ma pratique est fondée sur l’approche psychanalytique et sur l’approche psychothérapeutique institutionnelle.
