One life.

May we learn to return / And rest in the beauty / Of animal being, / Learn to lean low, / Leave our locked minds, / And with freed senses / Feel the earth / Breathing with us. 
- John O’Donohue, To Bless the Space Between Us

When I was looking for my own therapist years ago, I read a lot of websites by earnest therapists claiming that they could help relieve my symptoms. But that's not what I wanted. For me the idea of symptom-relief felt flimsy and like it reduced my complex experience to something simple and one-dimensional that could be done away with by a series of step-by-step goals or hacks. I didn't want someone to take away my experience; I wanted someone to listen to me and witness my experience. I had a sense that real growth came from becoming curious about, settling into, and accepting the present.

Now as a psychotherapist myself, I am convinced that the real value in therapy is providing a space of deep listening to my clients. No other relationship we encounter in our lives is quite like the therapeutic relationship. Here my role as a therapist is to focus my attention and energy entirely on you. My approach is not informed by tricks, tools or diagnoses, but by intuition and intentionality.

My training is in existential psychotherapy, although I prefer to avoid clinging to labels like that. I live my life with the rhythms of the seasons. I run an organic, traditional farm in France. My background is a mix of journalism, photography, horse training, guiding rock climbing, and various other things. 

My work is inspired by the same kind of questions that fuel me in my own life:
How should I live? What does it mean to live life "well"? 

I offer English therapy in France and online therapy to individuals across Europe and the UK.

May we learn to return

And rest in the beauty

Of animal being,

Learn to lean low,

Leave our locked minds,

And with freed senses

Feel the earth

Breathing with us.
