Qualifications/ Training
I am Psychologist with backgroud in both Clinical Psychology and research in Cognitive Neuroscience, trained at McGill University (Montreal, Canada) and at l’Université Paris 5 and l’Ecole des Hautes Etudes en Sciences Sociales in Paris.

I have worked and been trained in several Parisian hospitals (Sainte Anne, Corentin Celton, Louis Mourier).
I am a member of the Association Française de Therapie Comportementale et Cognitive (AFTCC) and the European Society for Trauma and Dissociation (ESTD).

Type of Therapy
I am specialized in brief Cognitive-Behavioural Therapy (CBT). These therapies have been studied and evaluated over time and have proven their efficacy for a wide-range of psychological and social problems. Treatment tends to be rather short-term (a few months depending on the problem(s)) and improvement can generally be noted after only a few sessions. Therapy is interactive and based on a collaboration between therapist and client.

Two important characteristics of CBT:
1.) Modification of Behaviours, Thoughts and Emotions related to the psychological problem
2.) Therapy is practical and based on the “here and now”

• Anxiety
• Phobia

• Trauma and PTSD (I am sub-specialized in this area)
• Cultural Adaptation Issues (culture-shock for expatriates)
• Adjustment/ Phase of Life problems
• Relationship difficulties
