My areas of focus include stress, anxiety, burnout, low self-esteem, life transitions, relationship difficulties, loss, and questions around identity and meaning.
I work with adults and young adults from 16 who are going through emotional or psychological difficulties and want to understand themselves better and build greater resilience.
I work from an integrative, evidence-informed perspective, drawing on approaches such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) and body-oriented interventions.
My approach is holistic and takes into account the interconnectedness of mind, body, emotions and personal context. I combine psychological insight with attention to the body and to the ways emotions and stress are experienced and expressed physically.
Depending on each person’s needs, I integrate body-oriented approaches, mindfulness, breathwork and embodied awareness into the therapeutic process.
I am a clinical psychologist with experience in both individual and group work across different mental health settings.
Since 2017, I have supported adults, adolescents and young adults with a wide range of psychological and wellbeing concerns.
I hold a Master’s degree in Psychology from the Vrije Universiteit Brussel, complemented by postgraduate training in experiential group development. My experience includes first- and second-line mental health care, independent practice and psychological support in educational settings.
