Stress Counselling in Paris

Stress in Paris is in some respects universal — the same physiological response, the same erosion of coping capacity. What is specific to Paris for English-speaking clients is the additional energy expenditure of performing professionally in a second language and a second culture, and the social isolation that can exist inside a busy Parisian professional life.

When Stress Requires Professional Support

The point at which stress requires professional support is when the person’s own coping mechanisms are no longer sufficient — when it is affecting sleep, health, relationships, or the ability to function. Stress counselling addresses both the immediate symptoms and the patterns generating them.

Approach

Integrative psychotherapy, EMDR where relevant, and Jungian psychology — addressing both the acute symptoms and the underlying structure. Executive stress with significant professional dimensions may benefit from a coaching component alongside therapeutic work.

Sessions

Available in Paris in person and via secure video. English and French. No referral needed.
