Even though I am a doctor in psychology, my perspective applies the saying "an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure". Instead of using labels and classifications I adopt a global, integrative and pragmatic practice, recognizing the need to adapt to the person, the situation, the moment.  I intervene with people and schools / companies who want to overcome certain difficulties, but who wish to limit their occurrence, and who want to flourish.

 

My approach, as a Canadian psychologist in Morocco, draws its foundations from social psychology and community psychology, and psychoeducation. These do not focus only on the person in his/her individuality, but emphasize that one's development, his/her way of thinking, feeling, and acting are in constant interaction with the different surrounding environments (in terms of both physical and human aspects).

 

In addition, I am very inspired by the current of positive psychology, which emphasizes the consolidation and enhancement of the strengths of individuals and institutions. From my heart, I am a humanist, actively listening and empathizing to better understand people's experiences. My principal tool to addressing trauma is Eye Movement Desensitization Reprocessing (EMDR).

​

Finally, my mindful and caring approach aims to contribute at different levels to the development of empowerment and the promotion of wellness and social justice.
