Sophrology
Sophrology is a psycho-corporeal method, that is to say that it uses the body, relaxation and body awareness to relieve the mind. A therapeutic technique, designed by the neuropsychiatrist Alfonso Caycedo, it finds its source in hypnosis, progressive relaxation but also yoga and Zen meditation, all of this gently aiming at the harmonization of consciousness.

My areas of expertise are:
Support for people going through cancer, particularly breast cancer
Mental disorders such as burnout, anxiety, depression, post-traumatic stress
Here's how a session goes:
- First 15 minutes (OR 1 hour if first session) : Discussion about the problems you have encountered and your progress in your therapeutic journey
- 20 minutes of breathing and visualization exercises
- 20 minutes of deep relaxation
- 5 minutes of discussion about your feelings during the session
Please note: in sophrology, you are the actors in your therapeutic approach; the exercises learned in sessions will have a better chance of success if you apply them on a daily basis.
During your first 4 to 5 sessions, we will address your urgent and/or emotional issues. It is strongly recommended to continue your therapy to have all the tools necessary to pursue your well-being in the long term.
