My clients are the bravest people I know. Stuck in old stories, they come knocking, hoping for a different plot twist. In times of searching, I’m your ‘compagnon de route’. Together we look at what has shaped you, and you take concrete steps towards the future you want, one that’s both desired and realistic. I offer the therapy I’d want to receive myself: what you see and hear is what you get. Authentic and passionate.

My own path, personal and professional, is a never-ending story too. Every experience, high and low, has brought me to where I am now. I’ve learned that growth and change can be painful; but staying stuck somewhere you don’t belong, without a sense of meaning, is more painful still.

I grew from an artistic ambition into clinical psychology, and those two worlds come together in my work with (high) performers: elite athletes, artists, and anyone who performs with themselves as their instrument. On a stage or in competition, you come face to face with exactly who you are. Sometimes in the work itself, outside the role or in the relationships around it. That’s not a problem, it’s precisely where our work begins. I work from strength, through the shadow, towards full expression: embodied, trauma-informed and clinically grounded.
