French Therapists in Philadelphia, PA
Comme je suis à moitié française et que je visite souvent ma famille en France, j'aimerais travailler avec la communauté francophone.
Je sais que trouver le bon thérapeute peut être intimidant. Mon objectif est de rendre la thérapie accueillante et transparente. Ensemble, nous pouvons explorer des sujets difficiles avec sensibilité, curiosité et humour. Je m'intéresse à vous--aux joies et aux difficultés que vous avez vécues. Mon espoir est de mobiliser vos forces, votre créativité et votre résilience pour votre santé. Nous travaillerons à votre rythme. Vous pouvez me poser n'importe quelle question à tout moment. Donnez-moi vos commentaires ou partagez vos besoins ou vos peurs lorsqu'ils se présentent. Ce sera une conversation en cours. Commençons.

So many of us are feeling stuck or lost lately. I work collaboratively with clients to get a sense of relief from the daily grind and uncover patterns that are getting in their way. I tailor my approach to each client’s unique background, context, and personality with the goal of developing supportive and productive therapeutic relationships. As a result, clients are able to cope more effectively with whatever immediate concerns or stressors they are experiencing as well as work toward long-term changes that will make a meaningful difference in their lives.

I believe in the power of spaces where humans can safely be their full, authentic selves. In an extremely isolating world, therapy can help you build a foundation of intimacy with the self that unlocks your ability to be more present in your relationships, more connected with your values, and better able to offer compassion to your wounded parts. I primarily see adults and LGBTQIA+ people looking to develop emotional regulation skills, understand the impact of past hurt on present relationships, and live a more values-oriented life.

The heart of my practice is centered on how you are the expert of your own lived experience; all parts of you, even the ones you recoil from, carry their own internal wisdom; and moving at your pace, with your consent, is critical to facilitate change and healing. Perhaps you struggle with patterns that keep you stuck, or maybe you feel conflicted between the head and the heart - I welcome all parts of you here. I specialize in working with adults from immigrant backgrounds, "third culture kids," BIPOC folks, individuals with complex trauma and dissociation, and my practice is LGBTQIA+ affirming.

Bringing together Internal Family Systems (IFS) and mindfulness, along with relational/attachment-based therapy, I help you locate and strengthen your inner resources of healing and resilience. Over the course of life, we accumulate hurts and wounds that impact how we function in our day to day lives. We can feel flooded by a range of difficult, often overpowering thoughts & emotions. We can experience challenges in our relationships as well as in our efforts to process and respond to overwhelming life events. Transformative healing is available.

I speak English and French and enjoy working expats and first- and second-generation immigrants.
My work is informed by my personal experience working in Asia, Africa, Europe, and North America. Navigating and assimilating different cultures has given me a deep appreciation for the central role culture plays in shaping us and I engage clients to bring out their unique, culturally nuanced ways of navigating the world.

I believe an important part of the therapy process is developing a flexible and collaborative relationship in which the client feels safe to explore, understand, and change relationships and behaviors, so that he or she may grow in a satisfying, creative, and life enhancing way. I have worked as a clinician for over twenty years and maintain a general practice for adults, families and children.

Many people experience times when they feel stuck in some important aspect of their lives, and want to find a way forward that is true to who they are and to the values that matter to them. Being stuck is often connected to unprocessed early experiences, compounded by living in the turmoil of complex and difficult times, and navigating what appear to be paradigm shifts in how we understand what is happening in and to our world. Therapy can provide a way to work towards clarity, and towards building, maintaining and balancing a healthy sense of self, healthy relationships with others, and a life that makes sense and works for us.

I conduct treatments in English, Spanish, French, and Portuguese.
In my practice (in Philadelphia and New York) I offer a welcoming setting and provide a safe space for your pain or difficulties. When you speak about yourself to someone who is trained to listen and examine the circumstances that motivated your consultation, a change occurs. A psychoanalyst is a person trained to hear what is happening under the surface, and provides a place where you may speak and hear yourself differently. I have been working as a psychoanalyst and psychotherapist for 30+ years and I have found that words can hurt, words can make people sick, but words can also save. Talking cures.

Feeling overwhelmed and trying to find balance, going through a challenging transition, or navigating singleness or issues in your relationship(s)? You may need a listening ear and someone to give you another perspective. I enjoy helping adults affirm their identity and personality, find belonging, and process difficult emotions. I also offer Christian counseling, pre-marital counseling, counseling to couples in their early years of marriage, and counseling to older adults navigating aging-related issues.

You may find yourself at a crossroad. Somewhere suspended between what you are and what you can become. Maybe you’re navigating changes in your relationship, experiencing a major life transition, or grieving a loss. There’s a way to alleviate these burdens without feeling overwhelmed, isolated, and helpless. Therapy with me is collaborative and compassionate, offering a space where you can feel supported as you navigate change, conflict, and uncertainty. I believe growth begins with feeling safe enough to be seen and heard, and develops through curiosity, consistency, and confidence.
