I offer counselling via Zoom and WhatsApp

 
As a Jungian psychodynamic counsellor, I offer individual consultations to adolescents, young adults, and adults, via Zoom or WhatsApp, in French, English, and Dutch.

I have experience in the following areas: early trauma, emotional dependency, anxiety, relational difficulties, lack of energy or purpose in life, hypersensitivity, giftedness, grief, major life transitions, loneliness and isolation, obsessions, feeling different, questions related to gender identity, sexuality, and self-expression, …

I often work with clients who have tried various therapies without success, due to early trauma or a lack of secure attachment. I am committed to ongoing professional development and continue to deepen my personal work with a Jungian analyst. My practice is also supported by long-term supervision.

For me, the therapeutic relationship is essential. I create a non-judgmental space where you can freely explore your thoughts and feelings. I help you delve into your unconscious to honor the needs of both your inner and outer worlds while providing you with tools to live in harmony with your deepest values and desires. My approach is Jungian, meaning it is based on the psychology of Carl Gustav Jung. Together we embark on a deep collaborative exploration of your unconscious to make sense of your struggles, alleviate your discomfort and symptoms, foster personal growth, and help you reach your full potential.

I offer a free introductory meeting of 15 minutes to answer any questions and explore the possibility of working together. Further sessions are 50 minutes long (via Zoom or WhatsApp) at a fixed time slot every week or every two weeks.
