Presentation

 

I am a psychotherapist living and working in Nantes, France.  Born in Ireland, I have lived in France for nearly twenty years now.  If you would like an appointment, you can call me on my cell phone 06 88 88 43 91.

I work with adults, adolescents and children doing individual one-to-one session work.  I also work with couples and conduct closed therapy groups for adults who need group support.

Approach 

The therapeutic support I provide is global in nature.  That means that while I work with people verbally and emotionally in relation to their difficulty, I also help people connect to the sensorial experience in their bodies.   Why?  Because when a person experiences a shock, access to this layer of information becomes diminished or frozen.  The quality of this inner sensorial connection becomes a key which allows the person's psychological and emotional understanding to transform into meaningful life change. 

Training 

I began my psychotherapist training in 1994 and have trained in several therapeutic modalities - Biodynamics, Biosynthesis, System Therapy (Psychogenealogy),  Neuro-Linguistic Programming - all of which encompass, in different ways, the importance of the sensorial experience to psychotherapy work.
