Body Image Therapists in Paris, France

We are all embodied beings. We often separate body and mind as two distinct entities, but the two are intrinsically linked and part of a whole. One aspect of this 'whole' is our subjective sense of who we are - our identity. How we feel about ourselves often, if not always, is manifested in what we do with and what we allow to happen with our bodies - from the food we take in, to the physical (including sexual) relationships we have with others, and the way we modify our appearance (permanently or in more subtle and temporary ways). In psychotherapy I offer a confidential and judgement-free space where we can think together about the way you relate to your body, what this means to you and how it affects your experiences in life.

If your value has been tied to appearance, achievement, or comparison, we gently untangle those beliefs. This space supports body respect and inner worth that is not dependent on how you look.

Are you living out someone else's story of your body? Is your relationship with your body one of judgement, shame, disconnection or control? Are you tired of being limited by and unhappy with how you look? We carry around our families old stories or culture's stories of our bodies so we need learn to rewrite those stories and live out different endings. You deserve a loving strong relationship with your body that allows you for more self-acceptance and peace in your life. Through a variety of tools that may include somatic work, art therapy, movement or other modalities begin the path of returning to and making peace with your body

I am passionate about helping my clients accept themselves just the way they are, and to deconstruct what, in this society, has led them to feel whatever way they feel about their bodies.

Paris has a deep psychoanalytic tradition — rooted in the influence of Lacan and Freud's European legacy — and the city's therapy culture retains a strong psychodynamic orientation, though CBT and integrative approaches have grown substantially in recent decades. The city's high cost of living, intense professional culture, and the particular social pressures of Parisian life contribute to significant demand for therapists addressing anxiety, burnout, and relationship complexity. Paris has large North and West African immigrant communities and a substantial expat population, with demand for both French-speaking and multilingual English-speaking therapists. France's expanded psychiatric reimbursement scheme (Mon soutien psy) offers some subsidized access, though private practice remains the dominant route for longer-term psychotherapy in the city.
