ABOUT ME
And who am I?
Welcome! And thank you for your interest.
I am an Art and Trauma-informed Somatic Therapist based in Ghent. My passion is guiding people toward a life where they feel free to discover and express their authentic selves. Alongside my work as a therapist, I am also a mother, sister, partner, artist, and adventurer.
​
My own life experiences have shown me time and again how important it is to stay connected to our inner world, and how creativity and body awareness can bring about deep and lasting change.
​
My journey into this field began at a young age with my love for art and creativity. Painting, drawing, and writing gave me a voice to process emotions and experiences from early on. Creative expression became my outlet, my way of breaking through unconscious layers and better understanding myself. These personal experiences led me to study Art Therapy, through which I not only gained greater self-awareness, but also discovered the transformative power of creative work in helping others.
​
Since 2025, I have taken an important new step by adding Trauma-informed Holosomatic therapy to my practice (trained through Innercamp in Spain, by Alexis himself).
This body-oriented work integrates my fascination with the mind-body connection: our bodies store experiences and emotions, and can help us both gain insight and release what no longer serves us. Through Holosomatic bodywork, I support clients in restoring that connection with their bodies, so they can find greater freedom—mentally and physically—and truly step into their own power.
Another big motivation for me is my passion for sharing knowledge and inspiring other professionals. I teach creative courses for coaches, therapists, and trainers, offering tools and inspiration for those who want to help their clients achieve deeper understanding and healing.
My work as a therapist is more than a profession—it’s a blending of everything I am and believe in. I invite you to join me on this journey of discovery and to experience how creative and body-oriented therapy can support you in living the life you want.
