Is psychotherapy the right fit for me?
Beginning psychotherapy is a personal decision, often shaped by moments of change, challenge, or a quiet sense that something isn’t working as it once did. People come to therapy for many reasons - navigating relationship difficulties, adjusting to new environments or roles, or trying to make sense of patterns that keep repeating in their lives.
My approach is grounded in Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), while also drawing on a broader understanding of how past experiences—especially complex or relational trauma—can shape the way we relate to ourselves and others. Together, we pay attention not only to thoughts and behaviours, but also to emotional patterns, attachment dynamics, and the ways you connect in close relationships—whether in couples, at work, or within your family.
Therapy is a collaborative process. For me, it's not about labels or diagnoses, but about understanding your experience in a way that feels meaningful and useful to you. At times, I may invite you to reflect on or try out small changes between sessions, helping you bring insights from therapy into your everyday life.
Over time, the aim is for you to develop a deeper awareness of your emotional world, recognize and shift patterns that no longer serve you, and build more fulfilling, flexible ways of relating- to yourself and to others.
Please note that I cannot provide emergency care. If you feel that you are in crisis and need a consultation urgently, please go to your nearest hospital or contact your Emergency Hotline (Canton de Vaud Emergency Hotline: 0848 133 133).
What will sessions look like?
Psychotherapy sessions last 60 minutes and may take place at my practice in Vevey or online using a video-conferencing platform. My office is found at Rue Collet 6, 1800 Vevey, a centre that unites various health professionals dedicated to the physical and psychological wellbeing of their clients.
Psychological assessment sessions vary in terms of time and number of sessions. Regardless of the test you require, I always provide a restitution session as well as a written report (optional), detailing your results and offering hypotheses and an analysis of the test's findings. Please feel free to contact me so that we can assess together how best to respond to your needs.
Workshops are entirely individualised to suit your needs, and can be an hour to several hours long. I also collaborate with Vania Regard, Swiss-Licensed Psychologist at Sereneo, to offer workshops on relaxation and mindfulness techniques for larger groups. Please contact me for queries and fees.
Are you reimbursed by insurances?
How much does a session cost?
60 minute sessions are 180.- CHF, to be paid for at the end of an in-person session via cash, card, Twint or e-banking, or prior to our session via EBanking if it is an online session. You will receive a receipt that you can send to your complimentary insurance for an eventual reimbursement. Please note that any additional work completed outside of sessions, such as insurance reports, questionnaire analysis, eventual collaboration with your family doctor or other health professionals is charged at 10.- CHF per 5 minutes.
Psychological assessments fees vary depending on your request. Please get in touch with me so that we can determine together the tests that you need and from there I can calculate the cost.
For workshops, please contact me so that we can discuss your project and my fees.
My practice operates independently of basic health insurance, allowing for a more flexible and personalised approach to therapy. Sessions are only reimbursed through complementary insurance plans, depending on your individual coverage.
What is the cancellation policy?
Sessions that have not been cancelled at least 48 working hours in advance will be billed to you at the full fee, regardless of the reason for cancellation. Indeed, it can be difficult for me to replace the missed appointment at such short notice.
