About me

Hi, I am Amandine, a qualified Gestalt therapist providing therapy and counselling to individuals and groups, in English and French.

I hope to co-create a space where you can reflect on and actively explore your life experiences, how you feel, and how you relate to others, yourself and the world. 

I see you as the one who knows yourself and the uniqueness of your situation best. My approach honours and supports you to listen to the whole of you, including your thoughts, feelings, sensations in your body, posture, movements, imagination and creative expressions. I offer both support and gentle challenge in our work. 

By paying attention to what happens in the present moment, we can illuminate subtle patterns that influence how you relate to yourself, others, and the world around you. I believe in the power of small and subtle moments of expression and connection which often hold an unexpected amount of wisdom and potential.

I practice in ways that are honest, accountable and respecting of your agency, autonomy and self-definition and expression.

I believe therapy does not exist in a vacuum. We are all impacted by our environments, social positions, and systemic dynamics. I practice with a strong commitment to social justice and systemic awareness and ongoingly seek to further my own development and awareness.

In addition to my individual practice, I facilitate groups to explore one's social positioning. 

Get in touch: 

If you would like to find out more or book a session, please contact me via email or 07404094892 (preferably by text).

I offer a free initial 15 min call or zoom session to discuss your needs, and for you to ask any initial questions. We can then arrange a first session.

As part of the first session, we will further explore your present needs from therapy and I will provide more information on how I work. From there we can decide the next step. 

I offer mid to long-term therapy. Sessions are weekly and mainly in person, in Shoreditch. I work online for one-off sessions or temporary situations.

Training, qualifications & experience

I hold a Master’s degree in Gestalt Psychotherapy from the Gestalt Centre and am fully accredited member of the National Counselling & Psychotherapy Society (NCPS), and a trainee member of the UK Council of Psychotherapy (UKCP).
