MY GOAL
As a qualified art therapist and relaxation therapist, I help children overcome their difficulties at school, manage their stress/ anxiety and regulate their emotions, in order to improve their overall learning at school, as well as their life.
MY PRACTICE
My support is adapted to the specific needs of each child in a caring and supportive environment, and is based on the methods of:
- art therapy and the expressive creative process
- medical relaxation techniques (RPMJ, autogenic training, visualizations, breathing techniques, etc.)
- Montessori pedagogy
- the psychological theory of transactional analysis
- the methodology of British paediatrician and psychoanalyst Dr Donald Winnicott
Creative techniques used include acrylic painting, oil painting, zentangle drawing, watercolour, watercolour pastels and pencils, mix-media, collage, structure paste, monotype printing using linocut, gel plates, stencils and stamps, scrapbooking, creative journal, crochet, weaving....
MY COMPETENCIES
I have trained in art therapy, relaxation and stress management techniques, and transactional analysis and possess a diploma as a Montessori teacher.
I have been an art therapist for 10 years, working in schools, institutions and private homes. I support children and adults. Currently, I am developing my activity in my private studio in Saint-Jean in Geneva.
I also possess a bachelor in science (Swiss engineering school) in the field of multimedia, as well as a DAS in visual communication. Subsequently, I held manager positions public organisations and private companies.
