About Me

As an existential psychotherapist, I have dedicated my professional life to understanding human beings. Through my training and clinical experience, I have accumulated solid knowledge in the field of mental health. 

I had the privilege of living in different countries. Originally from France, I studied and practise existential psychotherapy in the UK, where I have lived for fifteen years. Now, I work privately and volunteer with charities, noticeably the Terrence Higgins Trust. 

I hold an MA (distinction) from Regent's University's School of Psychotherapy and Counselling. This course immersed me in the psychoanalytic and humanistic/integrative traditions before I specialised in existential psychotherapy based on philosophy, phenomenology, and ethical discourse. 

Psychotherapy is my second career. I graduated with an MBA from HEC School of Management in Paris and held senior management positions in the beauty and fashion industry. 

I am part of the LGBTQI+ community; my pronouns are he/him. I have been married to my husband for 16 years and have navigated the difficulties of establishing intimacy with another person without a rule book. I am also the proud father of three beautiful children. Parenting has been one of my life's most challenging and rewarding experiences.
