Therapists in Bussigny

I am committed to support those who want to observe their life from a different perspective. Committed to working on your well-being and mental health. Through listening and reflection, an encounter takes place that enables creativity and change. For young adults, adults and couples.

I specialize in difficulties with emotion regulation, interpersonal relationships, and the relationship with oneself. I help my clients get in touch with their inner child, learn how to listen to their emotions, validate them, and autoregulate in a safe, healthy way. I also help them with escaping vicious circles. To do so, we work together on the problematic behaviors and beliefs relying on openness, kindness, and lack of judgment. I am sensitive to difficulties encountered by sexual minorities LGBTQ+, neurodivergent adults and expats.

If you are currently struggling with grief, relationship issues, anxiety, perfectionism or you generally consider yourself a sensitive/anxious individual (or even a highly sensitive person) you have come to the right place. I'm an accredited counselor, and I work with adults, teenagers and couples from all walks of life but I'm also a human who has experienced all of the issues listed above. I like to use both professional and personal experiences to inform my work.

I am a Swiss-American counselor and certified coach, with 13 years of clinical and teaching experience as a psychotherapist in the USA (www.twinoaksfarm.com). I offer online, in-person, and equine-assisted services in the Geneva-Lausanne region. As a former diplomat, I know what challenges expatriates face, as well as professionals dealing with high-stress - primary responders, humanitarian workers, military personnel, etc. My clinical specialty and passion is helping individuals struggling with anxiety, PTSD, or relationship issues reconnect with their strengths to live a fulfilling, balanced life, in alignment with their values.

I provide individual counselling and coaching for individuals ages 18 and up. I focus on looking for glimmers of resilience while acknowledging any psychopathological issues. I look at the person holistically – their family history, culture, current environment, relationships and unconscious processes – while leveraging their innate ability to self-actualize and be resilient and honoring their freedom to choose. I counsel in the areas of trauma, self-harm, stress reduction, anxiety and panic attacks, depressi

Above all, I aim to offer empathy, warmth and acceptance to anyone I work with. For over 11 years, I have worked with adolescents and adults. I believe that when we have the right tools, strategies and support, we can overcome a great deal. Though Canadian, I have spent my life in South Africa, Bangladesh, and Switzerland, and understand the unique challenges expats face first-hand.

Life, with all its ups and downs, can often feel overwhelming. You are not alone in this journey. Counseling can help. Counseling offers a unique space to pause, reflect, and gain clarity. Counseling can be the guiding light in the midst of confusion and the support system in times of need. It empowers you to uncover your strengths, make informed decisions, and move forward with confidence and resilience. Whether you are dealing with anxiety, acclimating to a new country, facing relationship issues, or simply in need of someone to talk to, I am here to help.

Life can be bumpy, sometimes. Change is always happening, be it in love, in work, in health and in the larger world around us. At times it can be useful to have someone by your side to navigate those changes, and increase clarity about the choices available, and the directions you might want to explore. Transitions and transformations are, I believe, what make life interesting - even though tough and rough at intervals. Gaining agency and insight in a place that is non-judgmental will help you make your choices, aligning yourself with your deepest sense of self.

I am a Clinical Psychologist with over 10 years of experience treating individuals, couples, and families. I work through a Cognitive Behavior Therapy (CBT) framework. I view each of my clients as unique and thus their needs and presenting problems as unique. Therefore, I do not believe that one method or technique works for everyone. I strongly believe in collaboration, and transparency with my clients. I firmly believe that each clients is the best expert in their own lives and I see myself as an agent who can assist them in reaching the goals that they set for themselves.

Life can be challenging and we sometimes find ourselves overwhelmed and stressed by day-to-day events or our personal circumstances. Counselling can help you with a wide range of issues such as anxiety and depression, trauma, grief, issues in relationships and other personal concerns. I would welcome the chance of working with you to help with any issues you may have. I offer counselling for adults, adolescents (from age 16 and above), and couples, in a supportive and caring environment both in person and online. Please don’t hesitate to contact me if you have any questions.
