Who am I?
A path shaped by several worlds
I grew up surrounded by people whose profession was caring for others. My mother, my sister, and my grandmother are doctors. My father ran humanitarian missions. Accompaniment, listening, and being present alongside people going through something difficult, these were a family given. Water I'd swum in since childhood, without even thinking about it.
My own path took a different turn. I spent several years in the business world, international trade, negotiations, building a project in Peru where I lived for a few years. Roles in France and Latin America, cultures to cross and varied experiences to navigate. I learned to listen to people, to adapt quickly, to sense what was really at stake behind the words.
But all that time, another curiosity was pulling in parallel. The curiosity of understanding how we work from the inside. Why we repeat the same patterns. Why certain things resist willpower. Why we know perfectly well what we should do, and do the opposite.
It was that curiosity that led me, by a different route, towards what I'd always seen done around me: accompanying people.
The path to hypnosis
It wasn't love at first sight. More like a series of realisations. First an interest in psychology broadly, the mechanisms of thought, cognitive biases, what we believe we know about ourselves that turns out to be a story we've been telling for a long time.
Then self-hypnosis, as a personal experiment. I wanted to see for myself what it felt like from the inside, not just read the theory. And what I discovered surprised me: no magic, no loss of control. Just a space where things move differently. Where what seemed fixed begins to shift again.
I wanted to understand why. And above all, to learn how to accompany other people into that space.
I trained at ARCHE, the largest Ericksonian hypnosis school in Europe, with a formation centred on practice and on the relationship with the person in front of you.
What I do in a session
The people who come to see me, I don't think of as patients or as ill. I think of them as explorers. Explorers of their inner world.
My stance is that of an expert in the pedagogy of change. In other words, I teach people how change is possible. I don't cure. I help the people I accompany to become more independent, freer, and to relate to themselves with more kindness.
Concretely, I don't give advice on how to improve. I help the people who come to see me find their own answers, by training them to communicate better with themselves.
In a session, there's a part of play. Improvisation, creativity, sometimes humour. Not because what you're bringing isn't serious, but because it's often when we stop gritting our teeth that something happens.
Hypnosis, as I practise it, is a space we build together, where your unconscious has room to work in its own way. My role is to create the conditions for that to happen.
What I believe
I believe the stories we tell ourselves about ourselves, "I'm just like that", "I'll never manage", "it's too late", are not truths. They're narratives. And narratives can be rewritten.
I believe change is not linear. It moves in spirals. Returning to an old pattern is not failure, it's often a sign that something deeper is shifting.
In practice
All my sessions take place online, by video call. Hypnosis works through the voice, and the voice travels perfectly through headphones. You're at home, in your own space, which tends to deepen the experience.
If something keeps going round in circles and you'd like it to change, we can talk about it.
