I have a deep conviction in the value of this profession and in what unfolds through the therapeutic process. The most important aspect is the meaningful relationship that will develop between us. It will facilitate in the understanding of older relational patterns and will serve as a guide towards more meaningful and secure relationships.You will also have a safe space to explore and gain insight into past experiences that could be too painful and confusing to bring to awareness without a supportive therapeutic presence. Furthermore by working these through it will broaden the range of effective coping strategies used in the present.

I work with clients who are motivated to explore their life's challenges and together, we build a strong alliance in order to try different approaches and strategies in our sessions. I believe in finding what skills and approaches work for the individual, and using a combination of mind-body approaches as it is all connected and we can learn and understand so much about ourselves through our bodies and the messages they give us.

Multicultural and bilingual, I have lived and worked in different countries and cultures including France, USA, Tunisia, Switzerland and Quebec. This has taught me that the search for meaning and wholeness and human connection is universal. However, in today's fast paced wired world, both inner and outer pressures make it easy to lose track of these values, to disconnect from our own needs , our inner voice and from authentic relationships with others. Depressions, anxiety, even certain health issues are just some of the inevitable symptoms that may emerge to make us stop and question our trajectory.

Are you feeling anxious or struggling with feelings of sadness and/or irritation? Are you faced with the loss of a loved one, the end of a relationship, an aging parent or workplace stress? Stress can help motivate us to reach our goals. However, prolonged stress can increase the chances of developing anxiety, depression and many physical illnesses.

Women's Issues Counsellors
How do you encourage a woman to go to therapy?
It’s helpful to express concern and love for the person while framing therapy as a tool for improving their life. Offering specific examples of how an individual may be suffering, and what effects it has on them, should be done with compassion and with empathy. It may be useful to devise a game plan—breaking the process down into parts, such as finding a therapist, making appointments, and looking into insurance coverage.
How can women prepare for therapy?
Women can prepare for therapy by being willing to talk about their past experiences and their private thoughts. Before a session, an individual may want to reflect on how they’ve felt since the last session and what’s happened in their lives. Between sessions, it can be useful to write down notes about their reaction to a given event or how they felt at a particular time.
How long does therapy for women’s issues often last?
As with any type of therapy, sessions depend on the individual and the challenges they face. Therapy types like Cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT), Prolonged exposure therapy (PET), and Eye movement desensitisation and reprocessing (EMDR) can be brief, most often ranging from between 5 and 20 sessions. In some cases, such as for women with eating disorders, residential treatment may be recommended for an individual who is judged to be at high risk of self-harm. For any therapy, the duration will depend on the progress made and results realised.
How can women overcome stigma around specific challenges in order to seek therapy?
Women dealing with domestic abuse, sexual assault, eating disorders, and any other number of troubles may feel a stigma around seeking help. It’s important to remember that these issues are not uncommon and there is no shame in getting help for them. Therapy is confidential, and women can talk about their experiences without fear of judgment. Seeking therapy can be a courageous and liberating act, and an important step toward healing and recovery.
