We offer individual, couple and family therapy in French, English or Arabic. Have you encountered life experiences that have left you feeling sad, anxious, frustrated or discouraged? You may be questioning whether you are living your idea of a meaningful life. You may have noticed that sometimes your interactions and your emotional responses are not working in your favour. Do you feel that you need to find new ways of improving your relationships? Perhaps you are wondering how you can change. These questions and realizations are the first steps on your journey towards healing. I offer counselling and psychotherapy in Orleans in French, English or Arabic. In my private practice I help my clients address a variety of mental health issues including anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship boundaries, communication and intimacy, self-esteem, identity, career changes, grief, spirituality, and life transitions. Throughout the therapeutic process I place an emphasis on creating a safe and compassionate space where we can work together towards your goals in a collaborative fashion. I always strive to build a therapeutic relationship based on empathy, curiosity, and support. In conceptualizing the human being I utilize a holistic approach, where I take into consideration the mind, body, and spirit. As an integrative therapist, I draw from various theories of psychological development and evidence-based therapeutic approaches to inform my practice. Such theories and approaches are the Psychodynamic, Cognitive Behavioural, Mindfulness-based, experiential and somatic, Logotherapy, and Solution Focused approaches. For further details regarding these approaches please look under services. It would be an honor to accompany you on your journey to healing. Together we can take steps towards change, peacefulness, serenity, and joy. Therapy is covered by insurance. Ensemble on pourra prendre des étapes vers le changement, paix, sérénité et joie.

The five stages of grief are denial, anger, bargaining, depression, and acceptance. These stages, popularized by Elisabeth Kübler-Ross, are common emotional responses to loss, but they don't necessarily occur in a specific order, and not everyone experiences all of them.

Denial: The initial shock and refusal to accept the reality of the loss.

Anger: The feeling that the loss is unfair, leading to frustration and outward anger.

Bargaining: The attempt to negotiate or make "deals" to change the outcome or delay the inevitable.

Depression: A stage of sadness and despair as the full weight of the loss is felt.

Acceptance: Coming to terms with the new reality of the loss and finding a way to move forward.

We offer grief therapy. We integrate spirituallity and existential therapy to help you find inner peace, comfort and connection.

How Hypnotherapy Aids Psychological Recovery?

During a hypnotherapy session, the Registered Psychotherapist guides you into a trance-like state, similar to being completely absorbed in a book or a movie. In this state of heightened suggestibility and focus, the therapist can work with you to:

Access the Subconscious Mind: Hypnotherapy can help bypass the conscious mind's critical filters to access deep-rooted memories, beliefs, and emotions that contribute to current psychological issues, such as past trauma or low self-esteem, which may be difficult to reach with traditional talk therapy alone.

Reframe Traumatic Experiences: In a safe and controlled environment, you can revisit and reframe traumatic memories, reducing their emotional impact and helping to integrate them into your life narrative in a healthier way.

Change Negative Thought Patterns and Behaviors: Therapists use positive suggestions and guided imagery to replace unhelpful beliefs (e.g., "I am not good enough") with empowering ones ("I am capable and worthy"). This process can help "rewire" neural pathways in the brain to support lasting change.

“You are the light of the world. A city that is set on a hill cannot be hidden. Nor do they light a lamp and put it under a basket, but on a lampstand, and it gives light to all who are in the house.
