Catherine De Geynst – English
Who I am
After obtaining my master’s degree in clinical psychology at ULB (2011), I began working as a psychologist in psychiatric institutions (psychiatric hospitals for adults, community centers, etc.) while following continuing education and postgraduate in systemic psychotherapy at Forestière asbl (2018).
Considering the difficulties and resources of people as emanating from their various systems of belonging (family, institutions, groups), the interactions and dynamics which take place there and their history (beliefs, values, transgenerational transmission, legacies), the systemic orientation gives me a holistic approach to human beings. It also allows me to receive, in consultation, couples, families or individuals, wishing to ease their suffering and better cope with who they are.
Also trained in psycho-traumatology at the Belgian Institute of Victimology (2012) and the University of Jerusalem (2019), I worked for several years abroad as a psychologist in humanitarian field and NGO with war refugees. I continued working with psycho-trauma upon my return to Belgium with exiled people and anyone who has experienced such events. Psychologist clinician Uccle
