Systemic and Psychocorporeal Therapy

My therapeutic work combines systemic therapy with body-based and holistic approaches, recognising the close connection between emotional experience, physical sensations, relationships, and communication.

Rather than focusing solely on symptoms, personal feelings, or individual interpretations, this work explores wider contexts and interactions. The focus is on how people relate to others, how they communicate with those around them and with themselves, and how these interaction patterns repeat across different areas of life.

This approach differs from traditional clinical psychology, which often centres primarily on the internal world of the individual. Systemic therapy considers that life is complex and that difficulties are rarely caused by one factor alone. Our reactions, emotional responses, and moments of feeling “triggered” are often shaped by early childhood interactions and reinforced through repeated experiences within families, couples, professional environments, and social contexts.

By observing these patterns together, it becomes possible to loosen what no longer serves and create space for change that is practical, grounded, and sustainable.

Areas of Support

I offer support for a wide range of emotional and relational challenges, including:

Support is adapted to adults, children, parents, couples, and families, taking into account individual circumstances, pace, and needs.

Parenting and Family Support

With a background as a qualified early childhood educator, I offer therapeutic and relational support to parents facing exhaustion, uncertainty, or ongoing difficulties within family life.

Parental guidance and educational support are closely linked. The aim is not to provide fixed solutions, but to help parents better understand relational dynamics, strengthen confidence, and improve communication within the family system.

This work may include:

Voice, Sound and Body-Based Therapies

When appropriate, I integrate complementary approaches that support emotional regulation, physical awareness, and self-expression, including:

These methods can support grounding, emotional release, and a deeper connection between body and experience.

Professional Practice and Institutional Support

I also work with professionals and institutions within the medico-social, educational, and early childhood sectors.

Two ideas strongly guide my work:

This work supports clarity, communication, and healthier professional dynamics.

Therapeutic Approach

My practice is informed by systemic thinking, drawing on Palo Alto models and contemporary systemic research, including the work of Nora Bateson. I also integrate perspectives from clinical psychology and neuroscience where relevant.

The objective is always to support practical change, relational clarity, and progress that can be sustained over time.
