With over 10 years of counselling experience, I have been counselling online via webcam for the past 7 years as an expat. I am a Licensed Professional Counsellor (LPC), National Certified Counsellor (NCC) and a Certified Clinical Military Counsellor (CCMC). In France, I am registered as a Psychopraticien. Most of my experience is in helping clients manage PTSD, Depression, Anxiety, relationship issues, adjustment/transitions, family conflict and helping to discover my clients’ life purposes. Common groups of people I see range from first responders (police, firefighters, paramedics), doctors, athletes, expats (English speakers living abroad) and general "life wanderers." In my current practice, I do not label clients with disorders. Instead, we focus on symptoms and achieving your personal goals.

Clients complete a basic intake form as they schedule their first appointment through the online scheduler on the www.sandandpsy.com website. After the appointment is made, clients will meet me at the Biarritz mairie where we will choose a walking path and begin our session. For clients who are on vacation but would like to continue therapy after returning home, I offer distance counselling via phone or video chat.
