The place
An apartment in Les Lilas, at the gates of Paris, a few steps from the town hall. A quiet room, a tall window, daylight. Books, plants, a table. Nothing that looks like a consulting room, nothing that looks like a stage set.
You ring, we sit down, we talk. There is no waiting room, no receptionist, nobody else in the hallway. You are the only person expected at that hour.
Or from your own home
Remote sessions take place over Zoom, unfolding exactly as they do in person. The link is sent once the time is confirmed.
Many people find it easier to speak from their own living room. All you need is somewhere you will not be interrupted, and enough time not to be watching the clock.
What is guaranteed
Four things, and they do not move.
Confidentiality, without exception
What is said in that room does not leave it. Nothing is written down, nothing is recorded, nothing is shared. No name, no testimonial, no example will ever appear elsewhere — not on this site, not in a talk, not in a private conversation.
Time is not counted
A session lasts about an hour. The length isn't rigid and doesn't change the fee. We stop when what needed to be said has been said, not when a timer goes off.
No protocol
No questionnaire, no framework, no method to follow. You do not have to prepare anything, or arrive with a well-formed question. The vague sense that something is asking for attention is enough of a starting point.
You commit to nothing
No subscription, no course of sessions, no appointment that calls for another. You come once, or several times, or never again. It requires no explanation.
What will not be asked of you
No diagnosis, no medical history, no assessment. I am neither a doctor nor a psychologist, and I have no business knowing your file.
No justification either. You will not have to explain why you are seeing someone like me, or apologise for only half believing in it. Doubt is welcome — it is often the sign that a person is genuinely listening.
The approach
There is no one who knows. Only sincere listening, which lets something reveal itself.
I do not present myself as the holder of a knowledge. I have no gift to advertise, no title to display. What I know how to do is listen properly — long enough, honestly enough, for what needs to come to come.
As I listen, I may experience an intuition, an image, an association. I share it. Not as a truth to accept, but as something to look at together. You remain the sole judge of what you do with it.
And me?
What I have done, I will tell you myself
You will not find my background on this site. That is not coyness: if the answers you are looking for are already within you, my résumé tells you nothing useful about what will happen between us. It might reassure you. It would not help you.
What I studied, where I have lived, what led me here — all of it exists, and I tell it gladly. But in person, when the question genuinely arises.
Come and meet me, and I will tell you who I am.
