I support adults who are going through challenging times or transitions in life. Many of the people I work with are feeling stuck and looking for ways to make changes in their lives. Clients are often looking for support to manage issues including stress and anxiety, depression, low self-esteem, and difficulties in their relationships. I also support people living with genetic disorders and health challenges.

Are you struggling to find a balance in your life? do you feel out of control, even though you keep trying to take charge? Are you successful, yet find you're not happy, feel flat, though it all looks good on paper. You have tried different things or tried nothing, afraid to go there. This is usually an invitation towards change. It is not always convenient or comfortable, yet it is unavoidable, as often we have been feeling like this for some time. Asking for help is an act of courage, a willingness to go where you have not before.

My ideal clients are children and families seeking support with emotional regulation, anxiety, behavioural challenges, stress, ADHD, or Autism. Parents often notice their child struggling with big emotions, transitions or behaviours, or social skills and want practical, compassionate support. They need a safe, structured, non-judgemental space and clear strategies they can use in everyday life. Their goals are to build emotional regulation, confidence, communication, and coping skills, reduce stress and challenging behaviours, and for their child feel more secure and able to thrive.

My mission is to free my clients from their biggest pain (from childhood, relationship, addiction, stress etc...) and help them to manifest their biggest dream. My French PhD is on Psychology of Fairy Tales based the Transactional Analysis of Eric Berne in the USA. In Australia I was trained for years in transpersonal psychotherapy based on meditation and regression. Finally I developed my own research and approach based on neuroscience and Dolphin Therapy. Dolphins (in the wild or virtual via Zoom) help my clients to enter a deep meditation state for transformation. My books share this approach.

Since 2021, I've worked in counselling and art therapy for specialising in psychosocial disabilities.
You might be feeling stuck, anxious, or a bit lost - doing your best to keep going but ready for something to shift. My clients often crave being calm, connected, and having space to just be themselves. Together we slow things down, explore what’s underneath, and use creativity and nature to find steadiness and clarity again. Therapy doesn’t have to feel clinical - it can feel human, grounding and real.
