Gaelle is a Mental Health professional who started working as an assistant psychologist while still in college, gaining experience from observing and interacting with individuals whose challenges ranged from depression to anxiety and personality disorders. After obtaining her degree in Clinical Psychology, Gaelle started volunteering with a local NGO, and was dedicated to dispense psychological support and carry out therapy sessions with people from different backgrounds, cultures and ages. Simultaneously, she joined the team of a Counseling Center, where providing crisis intervention and one-on-one counseling sessions, organizing workshops and planning awareness and prevention activities were her top responsibilities. Furthermore, Gaelle makes sure to find opportunities for personal as well as professional growth; she frequently participates in workshops and trainings, some of which tackled Psychodynamic Psychotherapy, Cognitive Behavior Therapy, Narrative Exposure Therapy, Group Dynamics and Mindfulness.

What I'm excited to bring to Fitcy Health members:

Mental health experiences resemble a ship out on the sea, navigating the waters through storms and sunshine. Life is full of fluctuations and you don't have to manœuvre the ups and downs on your own. Seeking support from a mental health professional is a sign of strength and bravery and I am determined to aid you in acquiring the needed knowledge and skills to become aware of your emotions, understand your reactions and learn to manage your hurdles.
