However unwell you might feel in this very moment: things can become better. Being healthy - both physically and mentally - is a process, not something solid or given. In your work with me, we will draw on this part of you that is already and ultimately healthy. My goal is to give you the space, encouragement and professional support you need to find your ways to cope with your life’s challenges. Together, we take the time to explore what is difficult, pain- and stressful for you with the major goal to identify and strengthen your inner resources, enabling you to understand, overcome, and outgrow what keeps you down at the minute.

I offer (cross-cultural) couples therapy and individual coaching/ counseling. In coaching, me and you together, we tear down inner walls that are putting you under stress and that have been preventing you from achieving your life goals. In couples therapy, we focus on creating new bonding situations and on regulating your nervous systems with a polyvagal approach. We also focus problem-solving skills as a couple as well as conflict communications.

I believe in the unique strength of each person, in his or her potential to face life's difficulties. However, self-knowledge can help to activate that strength, especially when the situations occur by surprise or sometimes do not allow us to see other options. The intention of my accompaniment is to help you to regain that strength, in search of new tools that allow you to expand your capacity to continue leading your life in a fulfilling way.

You may feel like you are not living the live you really want... Or you may be living it, but you notice you cannot be fully present and engage with it. The stress, anxiety or struggles of the daily life may be getting you, and the difficult thoughts & feelings come on the way... to pull you around, and away, from what really matters to you.

I always learn from the teens, young adults & families I’ve worked with, but this is most important for me to remember: Even behaviors that may appear ineffective from the outside looking in, usually have wisdom at their core. When a person is in pain, they generally want to feel better. My clients all come to therapy because what they’ve been doing to feel better ultimately isn’t working any longer. We work together to address what’s at the core of their pain & focus on managing that more effectively, without negative repercussions. We will together build a set of skills to help them feel more empowered & effective in their life.

Do you often miss your True Authentic Self? In other words, do you struggle to make own decisions because you fear judgment or hate upsetting others? Do you feel like you sometimes stand in your own way of living your potentials? Do you want to take your life and life time very seriously, yet, feel stuck and don't know how to actually manifest your visions and calling into reality?

The private practice will offer you a warm and caring place to build skills and enhance your personal growth. Therapy is a guided process of self-discovery. Whether it begins in response to a traumatic event or at a time when positive change is sought, old patterns of behavior and thinking can stand in the way of healthy communication and feelings. Therapy provides access to strengthen skills so that new and healthier thoughts, feelings and behaviors take the place of old unhealthy ones.

The approach I take with my patients varies from one patient to another. Like a "modiste" I "tailor" my sessions, creating a personalised therapeutic plan for each patient. I only work with evidence based therapies that I have been trained in: Behavioural therapy, Cognitive- Behavioural therapy, Family therapy and Humanist therapy. My primary tool is psycho education. I believe in educating the population with evidence based practices while maintaining a close, personal, confidential and safe-space relationship. Some of the most useful tools I use include: semi-structured interviews and functional analysis.

Is online therapy a good option?
Therapy conducted online or over the phone can be just as effective as in-person therapy, as long as there is a strong alliance between the client and the therapist. To find a therapist who provides telehealth services to clients in your area, click “Online Therapy” on the directory homepage and search by your city or town or your postcode.
What’s the difference between a psychologist, a therapist, and a counsellor?
Therapists, psychologists, and counsellors are all licensed mental health professionals. In many countries, psychologists have earned a doctoral degree. The terms “therapist” and “counsellor” are used somewhat interchangeably, but generally therapists offer longer-term, mental health care, while counsellors offer shorter-term care that may focus on one domain, such as marriage, career, or academic challenges.
What type of therapist is right for me?
Clients should consider factors such as insurance coverage and their primary reason(s) for seeking therapy to determine the type of professional best suited to their needs. Someone struggling with mental health challenges such as depression or anxiety, for example, may wish to seek out a clinical psychologist or therapist, while someone navigating career obstacles or marital upheaval may benefit from seeing a counsellor who can offer short-term, targeted support.
Is everyone in the Psychology Today Therapy Directory a licensed therapist?
The Psychology Today directory lists providers who offer legitimate mental health services to the public, including psychologists, psychiatrists, social workers, and counselors. Many have been licensed by the country where they practice; providers whose license or primary credential has been verified by Psychology Today are signified by a “Verified” symbol. Some clinicians or organizations provide services for which their state or country does not offer licenses, such as pastoral counselling. They may be selectively included without the “Verified” seal.
What type of therapy is right for me?
The type of therapy best suited to a particular individual depends on several factors, including their primary reason for seeking therapy, their preferred timeline (some therapy types last for a set number of sessions, while others are open-ended), and their personality and preferences—some may prefer a more structured approach. For many individuals, multiple types of therapy could provide a good fit.
Is online therapy cheaper than in-person therapy?
Many therapists charge the same amount for online therapy as they do for in-person therapy—though clients may still find this cost-effective if it cuts down on their transportation costs. Health insurance plans often offer equivalent coverage for online and in-person therapy; indeed, in many places, they are legally required to do so. Text-based or on-demand therapy apps may be cheaper than traditional one-on-one psychotherapy; however, the practice may be less effective and is not likely to be covered by insurance.
