Approches thérapeutiques
Voici mes principales approches thérapeutiques, soutenues par une formation spécialisée et une expérience clinique approfondie.

Emotion-focused Therapy (EFT)
A short-term, structured approach for couples and individuals. EFT focuses on understanding and changing the emotional responses that create distress, helping to create more secure bonds and healthier communication patterns.

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT)
A practical, goal-oriented approach. CBT helps you identify and challenge negative thought patterns and behaviors that contribute to emotional distress, allowing you to develop more balanced thinking and effective coping strategies.

Person-centered Approach
A compassionate and non-directive approach. This modality prioritizes building a strong, trusting therapeutic relationship in which you are empowered to lead your own growth, with the therapist providing unconditional support, empathy, and genuine understanding.

Strength-based Approach
This model focuses on your innate strengths, resources, and resilience. Instead of dwelling on problems, we work to identify and leverage your existing skills to overcome challenges, build confidence, and achieve your goals.
