What is your cancellation policy?
I understand that life can be unpredictable, and sometimes appointments need to be rescheduled or canceled. If you need to cancel or reschedule your appointment, please provide at least 24 hours' notice. Cancellations made with less than 24 hours' notice will incur the full fee. This policy helps ensure that I can offer timely appointments to all clients
Are you covered by French Social Security?
My services are not covered by the French social security structure and fall under private services. While I have a Master’s degree in Psychology from the UK, and it is recognized as a Master’s degree and level 7 education in France and Europe, I do not have the French title psychologist or psychotherapist. Therefore, I do not have an ADELI number that allows clients to be reimbursed through French Social Security. Some French Mutuelles do partially reimburse my services; check with your provider.
Can I learn more about your methods?
To support your understanding of the therapeutic models I use, here are some helpful video references. Please note that while the scientific support for Polyvagal Theory is untenable, aspects of the model offer a powerful framework or lens from which to approach nervous system regulation. Scientific and empirically supported methods are important to ensure safety and effectiveness. I am careful to make the difference between what is science, and what is a practical therapeutic framework, all the while embracing that we still know relatively little about the complex interconnectedness of the mind, brain, emotions, and bodily experiences.
