Therapeutic Skills and Areas of Specialization

  • I am a Bi-lingual (English/French) Chartered Counselling Psychologist and Coaching Psychologist in private practice. I work with adolescents, adults and couples in both time limited (6 to 12 sessions) and longer term therapies.

  • My approach to therapy is integrative, but primarily based in Existential Psychology and Psychotherapy, an approach which focuses on and emphasises the client’s everyday experience and their own way of making sense of the world. As a counselling psychologist I work therapeutically with clients suffering from a variety of issues (for example the effects of childhood sexual/emotional abuse, relationship difficulties, major trauma and loss) and/or symptoms of psychological disorder (such as anxiety, depression, eating disorders and self harm, post traumatic stress disorder and psychosis). I offer an active collaborative relationship which can both facilitate the exploration of the underlying issues and empower clients to embrace change.

  • In addition to the above I also have experience in working with clients suffering displacement issues related to expatriation, as well as phobias, obsessions, substance abuse and emotionally related health problems. Feelings related to a lack of well being or a desire for greater self knowledge are also valid reasons for seeking psychotherapy and counselling.
