My Transformative Services
I'm thrilled to offer you four transformative services crafted to support your journey towards self-discovery and personal growth:
Children Counselling
In childhood, words are not always enough to express complex feelings and lived experiences. That's why I offer a safe and welcoming therapeutic space where children can communicate and process their emotions through Expressive Therapy and Sandplay.
What is Expressive Therapy and Sandplay for Children?
Expressive Therapy uses art, play, music, storytelling, and other creative forms to help children express what they cannot verbalize. Sandplay, a specific modality, offers a sandbox with various miniatures, allowing the child to create symbolic "worlds." These worlds are reflections of their inner world, enabling them to explore conflicts, fears, and desires in a concrete and safe way.
How Does It Benefit Children?
​
-
Non-Verbal Expression: Allows the child to express difficult feelings, traumas, or confusions without the pressure of having to talk about them directly.
-
Emotional Processing: Helps the child process challenging experiences, cope with intense emotions, and develop healthy coping mechanisms.
-
Skill Development: Promotes creativity, problem-solving, emotional self-regulation, and self-esteem.
-
Understanding and Healing: Through symbolism, the child can better understand their internal and external reality, facilitating healing and growth.
​
Issues That Can Benefit from Expressive Therapy and Sandplay in Children:
​
-
Behavioral difficulties (aggression, frequent tantrums)
-
Anxiety, fears, and phobias
-
Sadness, isolation, or mood swings
-
Grief or significant losses
-
Adjustment difficulties (changes in school, home, parental divorce)
-
Traumas (accidents, frightening experiences)
-
Sleep and eating problems
-
Relationship difficulties with peers or family
-
Excessive shyness or low self-esteem
-
Developmental regression (e.g., bedwetting again)
Adolescence is a phase of intense transformations and challenges, where identity, relationships, and the future are constantly questioned. For many teenagers, talking openly about their struggles can be difficult. Expressive Therapy and Sandplay offer an alternative and powerful path for self-discovery and emotional processing.
What is Expressive Therapy and Sandplay for Adolescents?
Expressive Therapy with adolescents adapts creative approaches to address more complex and abstract themes. Through writing, poetry, collage, drama, music, or other forms of artistic expression, teenagers can explore their identity, cope with social and family pressures, and process emotions in a non-threatening way. Sandplay offers a space to build symbolic narratives that reflect internal and external conflicts, allowing for a deep and safe exploration of personal issues.
How Does It Benefit Adolescents?
​
Identity Exploration: Helps to explore who they are, their values, and their place in the world, in a judgment-free environment.
Processing Complex Emotions: Offers an outlet for feelings like anger, frustration, sadness, or confusion that can be difficult to verbalize.
Reduced Pressure: Lowers the pressure of having to "talk" about problems, allowing creative expression to be the vehicle of communication.
Resilience Development: Helps develop coping strategies, improve self-regulation, and build resilience in the face of life's challenges.
Improved Self-Esteem and Self-Awareness: Promotes a greater understanding of themselves, their strengths and weaknesses, and improves self-confidence.
Issues That Can Benefit from Expressive Therapy and Sandplay in Adolescents:
Anxiety, stress, and panic attacks
Depression, persistent sadness, or apathy
Self-esteem and body image issues
Relationship difficulties with peers, bullying, or social isolation
Family conflicts and communication problems at home
School problems (difficulty concentrating, demotivation, academic pressure)
Grief, loss, or trauma

Adult Counselling
​​Exploring Through Expression and Symbolism
​
In the adult journey, we often find words insufficient to describe the complexity of our inner experiences, the patterns that limit us, or the yearnings of our soul. I offer a counselling space where we can explore these aspects through Expressive Therapies and Sandplay, also integrating the wisdom of the different psychological tools for a deeper and more holistic understanding.
Expressive Therapies
For adults, Expressive Therapy invites exploration of feelings, memories, and insights through creative mediums such as art (drawing, painting, collage), therapeutic writing, movement, music, and drama. These modalities offer new ways to access and process emotions that may be blocked or difficult to reach through talk alone. It allows for the externalization of the inner world in a safe and symbolic way, facilitating awareness and change.
​​​
Sandplay
Sandplay offers a unique space for exploring the unconscious. By choosing miniatures from a wide range and placing them in a sandbox, adults can build "worlds" that reflect their internal processes, conflicts, resources, and the path to healing. This non-verbal process allows the deeper layers of the psyche to manifest, offering powerful insights and promoting psychic integration.
​
How Do They Benefit Adults?
​
-
Access to Deeper Layers: They allow access to pre-verbal or repressed emotions and memories, offering new perspectives on old issues.
-
Emotional Processing: They facilitate the expression and processing of complex feelings, pain, grief, or trauma in a less confrontational way than direct verbal therapy.
-
Self-Knowledge and Insight: They promote a greater understanding of behavioral patterns, relational dynamics, and emotional needs.
-
Creativity and Inner Resources: They awaken inherent creativity and help access internal resources for healing and resilience.
-
Psychic Integration: Sandplay, in particular, facilitates the integration of conscious and unconscious aspects of the psyche, promoting a greater sense of wholeness and well-being.
