Who am I?
My interest in psychology and in human relationships is not accidental.
Highly sensitive and deeply empathetic, I have gone through difficult life experiences that have led me to develop a unique approach to emotions, to relationships with others, to the environment, and to the way we perceive the world. This journey has led me to undertake profound personal work and to redefine the way I am in the world.
As a woman and a mother, my life changed profoundly when I learned to listen to myself and to fully embrace my sensitivity. I then came to understand that what I once perceived as a weakness was, in fact, a tremendous resource.
Today, this experience informs my practice and accompanies me in every encounter, with attentiveness, kindness, and authenticity.
"Life can only be understood backward; but it must be lived forward."

About my career
Graduating with a degree in Psychology from ULB in 1990, I have been working as a psychologist for over 30 years. Initially drawn to the hospital environment and clinical psychology, I worked in this field for 15 years. During this time, I was confronted with psychological distress and gained the experience that now enables me to identify and understand clinical signs and symptoms affecting individuals, in order to determine the most appropriate approaches and solutions.
Throughout these years, various training programmes have allowed me to broaden my skills and develop expertise in systemic and family therapy, mindfulness, EFT (Emotional Freedom Technique), non-violent communication, the prevention of professional exhaustion and burnout, workplace harassment, as well as the management of interpersonal relationships and conflicts.
My professional journey has enabled me to develop significant experience in supporting individuals facing crisis situations, intense or chronic stress, burnout, interpersonal, professional or family conflicts, as well as workplace harassment.
My training, combined with a diverse professional practice, allows me today to offer psychotherapy and psychological support through a holistic approach to the individual. This approach is based on identifying the underlying issues, gaining an in-depth understanding of symptoms, and providing an adapted analysis of each person’s situation, in order to offer attentive listening, support, and tools to help them move forward in their personal journey.
I have taken care to familiarise myself with and study relational concepts and the relationship with others (communication management, interaction dynamics, and assertiveness). I continue to regularly develop my skills through professional supervision, personal work, as well as participation in specialised training courses, conferences, and seminars for psychologists and psychiatrists, covering a wide range of topics in psychology.
