Psychologist and Psychotherapist in Strasbourg

Welcome to my page!

Each individual is unique and deserves a customized approach. Here, you’ll find a secure, supportive setting that encourages self-exploration and introspection.

A trust-based relationship is the foundation of our work together. I believe that emotional security is essential to moving forward, and that every journey is both a personal and collaborative process.

My way of working

An integrative approach

My training and experience have enabled me to develop an integrative work style. This means I tap into different therapeutic strategies, such as systemic, psychodynamic, cognitive-behavioral and humanistic methods. We’ll work together to define your needs and goals, and I’ll align the different methods to suit your situation.

Focus on human relations

Behind every symptom lies a human story, with its own challenges, fears and aspirations. Before turning my attention to a diagnosis, I focus on the person. Every suffering tells a story and, through shared dialogue, we can explore what this means for you. My approach is based on the belief that every individual has the resources within themselves to overcome their struggles and evolve towards a more fulfilling version of themselves. I’ll offer you an open, supportive space where you can be free to share your experiences with confidence.

What’s the first session like?

It’s perfectly normal to feel a little apprehensive about starting therapy. I’ll be there to support you, and we’ll proceed at your own pace.
This meeting’s focus is to make a first mutual impression and establish a collaboration based on trust. During our first sessions, we’ll define your needs and goals together, so that I can tailor my interventions to your situation.
At the end of this first session, we’ll be able to define the form of guidance I can offer you, and you’ll be able to say if it would work for you. This exploratory phase is crucial to making sure our work is adapted to your needs.

Who can benefit from a counseling?

Anyone can have the desire or need for psychological support at any time.
I welcome children, adolescents and adults to my practice. I believe, however, that working with children should be approached from a systemic perspective and in collaboration with the family. It is therefore expected that other family members (often the parents) will be invited to take part in some of the sessions.

Why consult with a psychologist?

Throughout our lives, we are constantly faced with change.
We grow up, take on new roles, meet new people, deal with new challenges, and build up all kinds of experience. Sometimes, coping with these changes isn’t so easy. During periods of transition, you may even feel a little lost.
A psychologist is a mental health professional who can accompany you on your journey of self-discovery as you move towards your personal goals.

I encourage you to explore your personal values, your own emotions and those of others. In therapy, you’ll learn to honor the richness of all your emotions, including the less pleasant ones. This can transform difficult moments into opportunities for connection and understanding.
Together, we’ll create the conditions for you to investigate your own way of functioning, in an authentic and reassuring way.

Who am I?

Originally from Brazil, and with some experiences in other countries as well, my path led me to France to carry on my education and become a Developmental Clinical Psychologist and Psychotherapist.
Aware of cross-cultural issues, I recognize some of the challenges that a diverse cultural heritage can bring.

I am fully committed to creating a space for discussion that is inclusive and respectful of the identities of each person I meet.
