About me

I am a licensed clinical psychologist and psychotherapist from France, currently located in Munich, Germany. I specialize in integrative psychotherapy, meaning I select theories and techniques from different therapeutic orientations best suited to my patient's needs and personality. Thereby, I can offer them an optimal and personalized help. Times of crisis can be wonderful opportunities to rebuild ourselves and our lives, and create a positive and long-lasting change. I am very enthousiastic about meeting new patients and help them through the difficulties they are facing. I first moved abroad about 11 years ago and I also experienced first hand the challenges that expatriation can bring. I know it isn't always easy finding an understanding ear when one has such an unusual path. The isolation itself can be the biggest obstacle to one's fulfillment. Here you will find support and psychological help from a therapist with a direct experience of these challenges and guidance on how to handle them. After starting to study medicine, I decided to move abroad and turned to psychology. During these years, I have simultaneously worked in education, in child care, in senior care and in healthcare. Later, I have worked in various french and german psychiatric clinics and wrote my theses on sexual violence, , the use of art and creativity as a therapeutic method, and on adult ADHD. I offer online sessions at an affordable price. Feel free to contact me if you have any question, or to request an appointment. We can have a free 20min video-call before deciding to work together or not.

Approach

Treatment Approaches
CBT: Cognitive behavioral therapyGood for those looking for practical support and accountability to change unhelpful thinking and behaviors.
Integrative therapy Good for those who prefer a flexible approach that combines different therapies to meet their unique needs.
PsychoanalysisGood for those who want to explore how their unconscious mind and early experiences affect their current behaviors and feelings.
My approach is integrative, meaning I refer to techniques and concepts from various other orientations (mainly Psychoanalytic, CBT, Humanistic, Systemic) to best adapt to your needs, your request, and your personality, to offer you a personalized and optimal help. During our sessions, I offer you a space where you can always speak freely, without judgement, and where your privacy will always be preserved. In my work, the therapeutic relationship is at the heart of the recovery process. My experience and training led me to realise that healing comes as much from the authentic and supportive bond created between patient and therapist, as from the specific techniques used in therapy. Openness, compassion and benevolant care are the core components of the therapeutic relationship I offer. Each session last 50 minutes and cost 80€ online; and 100€ in the practice in Munich. For low incomes, a sliding scale is possible. If you have financial difficulties contact me to find a fair fee together. Please be aware that I can only accept a new appointment when it has been requested at least 48hours prior. At best, write me a message so we can figure out the best time for both of us. HEALTH INSURANCE COVERAGE: -As a "Heilpraktikerin für Psychotherapie", some german private insurances can partially or fully cover the costs of my sessions, as well as "Heilpraktiker Zusatzversicherungen". -Some french insurances also partially refund sessions with me (MACIF, APICIL,...) -At best, call your insurance provider to ask about their refund policy. -If you reside in Germany, you can also deduct the cost of your psychotherapy from your taxes, just ask me for a bill.
