About me

Clinical psychologist and doctor of Psychology, I specialise in Cognitive and Behavioural Therapies (CBT)

I meet adolescents, adults and the elderly as part of my clinical practice. I offer psychological treatment for problems surrounding weight and eating behaviour (overweight, obesity, body dissatisfaction and eating behaviour with or without an actual eating disorder). I also support accompany with addictive behaviourus, anxiety or depressive disorders or people facing health problems (chronic or acute).

In parallel with my professional activity, I work in a medical care and rehabilitation clinic specialising in geriatrics and nutrition.
