About

Laurence Caussanel

I am a clinical psychologist and French psychotherapist.

I was trained for 6 years at the University of Paris VIII in clinical psychology, psychopathology and psychotherapy.

Expatriate for more than 20 years, I was able to deepen my clinical practice through various training courses

and professional experiences in France, the Netherlands and Singapore.

My area of expertise includes:

Psychotraumatology and the management of simple and complex trauma
Emotional Regulation (Adults, Children and Adolescents)
Attachment disorders and the parent-child relationship
Addictions, including pornography addiction

My trainings

My work as a psychologist is the result of a career change after 10 years of experience in big companies, in the marketing & communication and HR sectors.

Alongside my Master 2 degree in clinical psychology and psychopathology, I trained in several therapies that I use in my practice:

- Lifespan Integration, a new technique that allows for the healing of a specific event in just a few sessions and, over a longer period, provides relief and a sense of security in cases of complex trauma. I am now a certified Lifespan Integration therapist. I have been certified since 2022.

- Theraplay, inspired by the attuned interactions between parents and children to foster secure attachment and support mental health throughout life. I have completed Level 1 and 2 training and am certified at Level 1.

- Mindfulness or mindfulness therapy.

I am a member of:

- LI-France , French Association LI-ICV (Lifespan Integration), for which I am responsible for Communication,

- The Francophone Theraplay Association,

- Psy Expat Network, a network of expatriate and former expatriate psychologists

My Practice

My approach is integrative. I adapt my work to the needs of the person and the situation, taking into account cognitive, emotional, behavioral, physiological and relational aspects.

I see therapy as a true meeting between 2 people whose relationship is based on empathy, authenticity and non-judgment. Through dialogue, I offer a different perspective through the analysis of the difficulties and we progress together towards the source and potentiel solutions.

I am committed to creating a secure and confidential environment. The quality of my work is based on my continuous training and clinical supervision which promote and ensure my professional development and the well-fare of the client.

I follow the code of ethics of my profession.
