Psychotherapist Paris & Counselling

Psychotherapist Paris and counselling

Everyone faces challenges or problems in their lives. Some are easily overcome alone, while some require help from friends or relatives. However, there are certain issues that require specialist psychotherapist Paris help from a professional.

What problems require that extra help depends on the individual and the specifics of the case. Some people can manage their emotions around work stress themselves, but need more help coming to terms with the loss of a parent. Others will be able to cope with the death of a parent with support from other family members but will need help to deal with losing their job.

Our reactions to these things will depend on things like how sustained the stress is, whether the loss was sudden, and about a billion other things that vary from person to person and situation to situation. It’s also unhelpful to judge whether you need help with a situation based on whether someone else needed help. You are not them and that’s okay.

There is certainly nothing wrong with asking for help. It’s actually one of the bravest things you can do.

Our English speaking counselling and psychotherapist Paris service

At Philippe Jacquet & Associates, we understand that it can be hard to seek help for mental health or relationship issues. First, there is still a regrettable stigma around seeking help for these problems, but it can also be the case that you’ve been suffering so long, you don’t remember a time when you didn’t feel like this.

This is compounded even more if you live in a country where you aren’t fluent in the language, so you worry about seeking help and not being able to communicate effectively. That’s why we created an English-speaking counselling clinic for people in Paris, Ile-de-France.

Here, you can access therapy without worrying about a language barrier. We offer therapy sessions online from our London offices via Skype or WhatsApp.

We find that the online sessions are as effective (and potentially more effective for some people) than regular counselling and pyschotherapist Paris. It is especially useful to those who travel frequently for work, live abroad, have difficulty travelling for sessions, or would like to ensure their anonymity even more so.

If you’re looking for English speaking counselling in France, then please give us a call on either of the following numbers (+44 03333392430) or email us. Don’t suffer in silence.

What kind of issues do we help with ?

Our English-speaking psychotherapist Paris and counselling service can help you manage almost any type of mental health or interpersonal relationship issues, but here are some of the most common that we see:

Of course, many people find that their issues do not fit neatly into one of the categories. It can often be the case that you are suffering from more than one problem and that these issues exacerbate each other. For example, someone who is struggling with a mid-life crisis may also be suffering from stress at work or have been recently bereaved, which is causing depression and anxiety. Tackling just one of the issues may not be enough to deal with the problem effectively and so a combined approach is usually needed.

Summary of services offered online

At Philippe Jacquet & Associates, we offer a range of services for people experiencing mental health or interpersonal relationship issues. The treatment plan will be based on the patient’s reason for seeking help, their physical ability, and what types of mental health treatment they wish to undergo.

That last point is particularly important. Our founder Philippe Jacquet believes that while a counsellor may be an expert in mental health issues or their school of thought regarding therapy, which in his case in Jungian Analysis, the person experiencing issues is the sole expert in their own lives.

With that in mind, let’s give you an idea about the sort of psychotherapist Paris that you can expect at our international counselling service.

Counselling and Psychotherapist Paris

This is often a shorter treatment to address a specific problem in a patients life that cannot be worked through alone or with the help of friends and family, say bereavement counselling and Psychotherapist Paris after losing a loved one.

Counselling, which can take place in individual or group settings or both, helps you work through problems. The counsellor cannot provide any definitive answers because, as with any mental health treatment, there is no magic cure, but they can provide new ideas and perspectives that will help you find a way to address the issue yourself.

Some of the issues that are best suited to counselling are interpersonal issues, like marital problems, disputes with a boss, or even issues with your parents.

Psychotherapist Paris

There is much that is not known about psychotherapist Paris by the layperson, which means that those gaps often get filled by sensationalist media portrayals. Psychotherapist Paris is actually a positive and effective form of treatment because it allows people to learn about themselves by talking with a professional about their lives.

Through this, a person comes to understand how their beliefs are unconsciously shaping their thoughts, feelings, and actions. These beliefs will have been shaped by your lived experiences and by the beliefs of those around you. In this safe space, people can examine why they hold problematic beliefs and whether these beliefs are true, which can help to change their outlook and therefore their behaviour.

For example, if you saw that your parents had a rocky relationship or you were cheated on in your teens, it may be affecting your marriage now, without you even realising it.

Hypnotherapy

As with psychotherapy, hypnotherapy is not well understood outside of medical circles. When most people think of hypnosis, they think of an entertainer who makes their volunteers cluck like a chicken on stage. That is nothing like hypnotherapist Paris.

Our highly-trained hypnotherapists will put you into a relaxed state where your unconscious mind will be more open to suggestions. The session will be discussed in detail beforehand, with the therapist taking their lead from you about the suggestions you want to have. To be clear, you will not be asleep and you don’t have to take any suggestion that you do not want to take. In fact, you can even break yourself out of a trance yourself if you want to.

Art Therapy

This is a mode of self-expression that allows a patient to communicate through creating something and is especially useful when treating patients who thrive on doing, rather than talking. By focusing on the creative, rather than destructive, it can allow the mind to understand and overcome challenges.

An example of its use at our psychotherapist Paris and counselling clinic is by getting someone to draw how they feel when they are experiencing the issue that they came to us with, so if a patient was struggling with binge eating, they might be asked to depict how they feel after a binge.

Business Coaching

This confidential one-on-one treatment will give you a guide (or coach) to help you through problems or challenges at work. Effectively, they will act as a sounding board and provide you with the different perspectives and scenarios to allow you to make the best decision for you. It also helps you understand how you can change your behaviour to get better results at work.

Using multiple therapies

As part of our integrative approach, we may well combine the approaches to see if the mixture is more helpful for the patient. For example, if someone were to come to us with anxiety related to their job, we might give them counselling and psychotherapist Paris, but we can also try art therapy to tap into their creative side or bespoke business coaching to help them attain goals.
