Philosophy & Vision
Welcome!
Iâ??m Aicha, a French couples counsellor with a passion for guiding individuals through the difficult terrain of their relationships. Whether you're facing communication breakdowns, constant fighting, trust issues, intimacy challenges, infidelity, the aftermath of betrayal, or navigating major life transitions such as marriage, parenthood, or career changes, I'm dedicated to providing you with the tools and support you need to rebuild and revitalize your relationship.
In my couples counselling practice, I integrate a comprehensive range of therapeutic approaches to best meet the needs of my clients (Gottman, EFT, Sex Therapy, Trauma Informed Framework).
Background
My professional and personal journey into understanding how people connect began more than twenty years ago, when I tried to understand why we interact the way we do. This curiosity led me to pursue dual bachelorâ??s degrees in Philosophy and Sociology, followed by a Masterâ??s in Dynamics of Change.
Since then, whether it was while working on complex interpersonal dynamics in large-scale settings or intimate relationships, or simply while navigating the ups and downs of my own relationships, I have gained incredible personal and professional experience in human connections.
Today, my sole focus is on supporting couples because Iâ??ve witnessed firsthand the transformative power of healthy relationships.
Services
In my couples counselling practice, I integrate a comprehensive range of therapeutic approaches from Gottman, EFT, Sex Therapy and Trauma Informed Framework.
I believe in the power of empathy, understanding, and evidence-based techniques to foster healing and growth. Each couple is unique, and I tailor my approach to meet your individual needs, creating a safe and supportive space where you can explore, heal, and evolve together.
Quality Provision
To ensure that I am aligned with best practices and deliver the highest level of services in relationship counselling, I am a registered couple counsellor at the Australian Counselling Association (ACA). Additionally, I play an active role in the counselling community as a convenor for the Hunter Australian Counselling Association Chapters, where I facilitate opportunities for professional development and collaboration among peers.
