Individual sessions

I. Psychotherapy

Individual psychotherapy is a relational and in-depth process, held within a safe, confidential, and carefully supported space. I work with adults, both in person and online, using an integrative mind-body approach that combines relational psychotherapy with somatic therapy.

In the therapeutic process, we focus on how you experience yourself — emotionally, cognitively, and physically — and on how your patterns of thinking, behavior, emotions, bodily responses, and relationships have developed and continue to influence your life. It is a space where difficulties can be explored at a pace that respects your resources and limits.

I work integratively, combining multiple therapeutic approaches, with a consistent focus on the body as a space of lived experience. I integrate relational and emotion-focused psychotherapy, trauma-oriented approaches, and somatic work to support processes of awareness, regulation, and integration. This perspective is grounded in the understanding that our experiences are not only “told,” but also lived and stored in the body — in sensations, tension patterns, breathing, and nervous system responses.

Psychotherapy is not about quick solutions or dramatic interventions, but about a process that unfolds over time within a stable and supportive framework. For some people, change emerges gradually, through increased clarity, safety, and internal flexibility. For others, there may be moments of emotional intensity or deep insight, which are carefully supported and integrated within the process.

If you would like to understand more about my perspective and way of working, I have explored these topics further in my articles — on somatic approaches and trauma work and developmental trauma therapy.

II. Psychological Counseling (Short-Term)

In addition to psychotherapy, I also offer psychological counseling sessions focused on clarification and support within a specific life context.

Counseling is suitable when you are facing a particular situation or clearly defined difficulty and are looking for a space for reflection, structure, and guidance, without necessarily entering a deeper therapeutic process.

This type of work is typically shorter in duration and more focused on the present and current context.

Counseling is oriented toward specific situations, short-term support, and clarity.
Psychotherapy, in contrast, is a deeper process that explores emotional, relational, and somatic patterns developed over time and requires a stable, ongoing space for understanding and integration.

Depending on your needs, we can decide together which approach is most suitable.

III. Somatic Experiencing and Body-Oriented Therapy

While the psychotherapy I offer already includes work with the body, somatic therapy places an explicit focus on bodily experience.

Psychotherapy is a broader, relational, and exploratory process that includes emotional, cognitive, and historical dimensions. Somatic therapy is a body-centered approach, particularly suited for those who wish to explore and work more directly through the body.

My training includes studies and courses in various trauma-oriented and somatic psychology approaches. I work primarily through Somatic Experiencing, a trauma-informed method that supports the processing of experiences through the body at an adapted pace (titration, pendulation).

I also integrate elements from:

• TRE (Tension & Trauma Release Exercises)
• Bodynamic (Somatic Developmental Psychology)
• Integral Somatic Psychology (embodiment of emotions)
• mindful movement, breath, and regulation practices
• trauma-informed yoga therapy elements.

Somatic therapy can be a standalone process or a complement to psychotherapy.

It is particularly suitable for:

• individuals already in or having completed psychotherapy who want to deepen the bodily dimension of their experience
• those who seek a space less focused on verbal analysis and more on sensing, awareness, and regulation through the body
• situations involving persistent symptoms such as tension, anxiety, agitation, shutdown, physical discomfort, or difficulties with self-regulation

Who this work is for

This type of work (psychotherapy, counseling, or somatic therapy, depending on your needs) may be suitable if:

• you are experiencing emotional, relational, or physical difficulties that need understanding and integration
• you live with anxiety, chronic tension, burnout, emotional overwhelm, or a sense of being stuck
• you are going through transitions or loss (separation, divorce, grief, career changes, relocation, becoming a parent) and need support to better understand yourself
• you notice recurring patterns (self-criticism, indecision, relational difficulties) that no longer serve you
• you find it difficult to regulate your reactions or behaviors, even when you “know” what would be helpful
• you struggle with addictive behaviors or costly self-regulation strategies (overwork, control, relationship with food, etc.)
• you have been impacted by difficult or traumatic experiences (emotional, relational, or developmental) that still influence your present
• you have gone through shock trauma (accidents, medical interventions, difficult birth)
• you experience physical symptoms or states that are difficult to understand or integrate
• you find it difficult to feel safe in your body or in relationships
• you have experienced abuse, neglect, abandonment, or coercive relational dynamics
• you live with a chronic illness or medical condition and need psychological support

Or if you are simply seeking clarity and a space for reflection, even without a clearly defined “problem”:

• you function well externally but experience inner tension, restlessness, or lack of meaning
• you want more clarity in decisions, relationships, or how you relate to yourself
• you are in a period of decision-making or transition and need space to reflect
• you hold a role of responsibility (leader, entrepreneur, manager, or coordinating people and processes) and need space to process its emotional impact
• you work in emotionally demanding environments (medical, social, educational, NGO, HR, or other people-centered fields) and are frequently exposed to stress or suffering
• you work with children or vulnerable individuals and want to better understand the impact of trauma — both on them and on yourself
• you need a space for release, reflection, and regulation to remain present, balanced, and effective in your role
• you want to develop your capacity for presence, self-regulation, and authentic relating, including in professional contexts
