Clinical Experience
I have over 10 years of clinical experience working with a diverse range of clients in a medical centre and in private practice.
I am registered with Belgian Association for Psychotherapy (ABP-BVP) and I hold doctoral degree in Integrative Psychotherapy and Counselling Psychology from UK. My Doctoral research in Counselling Psychology explores the complexities of expatriates’ experiences of relocation and adjustment.
My training in psychotherapy and psychology enables me to draw on different theoretical frameworks (relational psychoanalysis, transactional analysis, person-centred and cognitive-behavioural approaches) and adopt a flexible stance in my clinical work in relation to the particular needs of the client and offer short-term or long-term therapy.
