About Deva

I have always had a passion for human relations. Twenty years ago, when I met my husband, we moved countries and I lost my teaching position after having graduated with a French Master's degree in Geography and a New Zealand Teaching Diploma for secondary international high schools. 

I went through some life transitions. Having time on my hands, I started practicing meditation and yoga and trained as a Yoga teacher. I studied Buddhism and different Eastern philosophies.

I also came to be curious about my  personality through the lens of the Enneagram. It helped me to understand how different parts of myself were organised, therefore I studied this tool at the American Enneagram Institute. 

Yet at times, I was still feeling anxious, unsure and afraid.It is IFS  therapy that brought healing to my remaining insecurities, which led me to study this effective model, to become a level 3 certified IFS practitioner.

I continue to learn about IFS through trainings and assisting in IFS trainings 

is a psychotherapy model created 30 years ago in the United States by Dr. Richard Schwartz. Its effectiveness is scientifically proven (Evidence-based Practice).

IFS or Internal Family System

This innovative therapeutic technique gives results quickly, it heals your wounds deeply and permanently using your own healing abilities, it frees you from certain behaviors and allows us to regain self-confidence. It is also a method that activates the neuroplasticity of the brain.

Imagine an orchestra (your inner world) made up of musicians (sub-personalities called parts) guided by a conductor (your intact and always available resources) playing a symphony which allows you to find within yourself confidence, courage, calm, support, healing and harmony. One of the specificities of IFS is to facilitate the connection of our resources with our parts in order to safely explore our inner world (our parts) and to access our inner children

Imagine an orchestra, your inner world made up of musicians or sub-personalities called parts, guided by a conductor, your intact and always available resources. When they are all working together it allows confidence, courage, calm, support, healing and harmony to be restored.

During a session, when you bring up a theme, I am not the source of the solution or of all the actions because the approach values your resources as a guide towards resolving your problem..

Stress, Anxiété & Dépression

  • Do you find yourself constantly worrying about your work, your relationships, your family or your health?
  • Do you have trouble concentrating or making decisions?
  • Are you busy all the time, are you on the go or are you irritable?
  • Difficulty concentrating or difficulty making decisions?
  • Easily irritable, tense or do you experience pain and muscle tension, sweating, heart palpitations or headaches?
  • Are you having trouble sleeping or feeling like something bad is going to happen?

I will help you better know and heal the parts of you that are constantly activated, so you can live your life with more calmness, balance and regain control of your experience.

Self Esteem

  • Do you feel never good enough, smart enough or attractive enough ?
  • Have you had enough of comparing yourself to others and competing for approval ?
  • Do you tend to please others and struggle with boundaries?
  • Feeling like you just don’t belong or Self-doubting ? Is self-criticism or self-blame familiar to you?
  • Do you lack enough self-confidence to pursue what you deeply long for ?
  • Are you controlling and need perfectionism?

If you silently repeat those same messages to yourself, we can change that so you can be a true friend to yourself.
