Who I am
As a psychologist and teacher by training, graduated from the Faculty of Psychological Sciences and Education of ULB, I first present to you the different experiences and influences that have led to the accompaniment that I propose.Psychologist Ixelles
Having lived half of my life in Morocco and the other half in France and Belgium, I have developed a great sensitivity to the importance of the role we play within the environment in which we live. I have been able to develop a deep questioning about the meaning given to our existence and the impact of what is reflected back to us by the world around us. This questioning has accompanied me throughout my training and has allowed me to develop a number of tools (Adler’s Sense of Community, Nonviolent Communication, Psychoanalytic Analysis, etc.) that allow me to accompany people towards a sense of existence that enriches them and allows them to evolve more serenely.Psychologist Ixelles
I also had the opportunity to work in day centers that specialized in different mental health issues (Addiction, Borderline Personality Disorder). This experience was very rich as it allowed me to combine individual accompaniment as a reference person with group accompaniment through various activities proposed and often organized by patients. I really became aware through this work of the rich and complex relationship that exists between an individual patient’s problem and his involvement in his network (Family, friends, work, etc.). It was necessary to take into account these two aspects simultaneously in order to effectively accompany the person towards a more fulfilling life that is felt to have more meaning.
