If you’re
looking for counseling or psychotherapy in France from a compassionate,
experienced, English-speaking therapist, you’ve come to the right place.
Welcome!
I am an
American psychologist living and practicing in Lyon, France. I specialize in
working with those living abroad (expats, intercultural couples,
international students, third culture kids) who are struggling with emotional or
personal difficulties and who want to strengthen their emotional resilience,
develop greater self-awareness and self-compassion, build more
satisfying relationships, and deepen the sense of meaning in their
lives.
I’m passionate
about helping my clients overcome their current difficulties and develop the
skills they need to navigate future challenges with confidence and
self-compassion.
Whether you’re
struggling with anxiety or depression, experiencing difficulties in close
relationships, feeling paralyzed by self-criticism and self-doubt, dealing with
challenges related to past traumatic experiences, navigating life transitions
such as becoming a new parent, losing a loved one, or going through a divorce,
or having trouble keeping your head above water while trying to adjust to a new
culture, it can be helpful to have some additional support and guidance as you
navigate your own healing journey and move toward your goals.
Counseling &
Psychotherapy Services for English-Speakers
I
work with both adults and adolescents, offering individual counseling and
psychotherapy, couples counseling, and group therapy from my office in Lyon.
To learn more
about these services and about my approach to counseling and psychotherapy,
please visit my website or get in touch with me using the links at the top of
this page.
I offer a
free initial phone consultation to discuss your current challenges and goals
and begin to consider what our work together might look like. This conversation
will help us both consider whether there is a good fit between us.
My
Qualifications
I received both my Masters and Ph.D. in Clinical Psychology from Penn State
University in the United States. I am a licensed clinical psychologist in the US
in the state of Pennsylvania. I am currently in the process of working to have
my degrees recognized by the French Ministre de Enseignement Supérieur so that I
can practice with the title of psychologue in France. In the meantime, I am
practicing with the title of “counselor,” which is not a regulated title in
France.
I have over 10
years of experience providing counseling and psychotherapy. Prior to opening my
private practice here in Lyon in 2016, I had 6 years of experience working in
university counseling centers (at Penn State University and the University of
Delaware) and 6 years of experience working a community mental health center in
Pennsylvania.
Getting in
Touch
Feel free to get in touch with me if you have any questions or to schedule a
free initial phone consultation.
It’s important
that you work with someone with whom you feel comfortable. If I’m not the right
counselor for you, I will do my best to help you find someone who is. |
