La Salamandre
Couple and family counselling
(Hypno)therapy and workshop
The salamander goes through fire; we go through trials. When the salamander is wounded, its limbs grow back and it emerges unscathed. In myths, it represents regeneration. This is the purpose of our activities, no matter what the initial problem is or what makes you want to improve your relationships and/or communication.
Our approach is essentially humanistic and based on the theories of Carl Rogers and Thomas Gordon. The emphasis is on listening with kindness, empathy, unconditional acceptance and non-judgment, so that everyone can develop their self-love and their own resources. The analysis of what happens at the relational level during the sessions enables the adjustment of relationships with loved ones on a daily basis.
Theoretical foundations of the therapist’s training are also based on existential psychotherapy (the search for the meaning of life and death, Yalom), the analytic current (Freud, Jung, Ferenczi), the systemic current (Elkaïm), the contextual approach (Boszormenyi-Nagy), the narrative approach, and co-creative therapy (current Quebec current).
« The crisis allows for growth »
Florence Bergé
My therapeutic approach is essentially humanistic and based on the theories of Carl Rogers. The emphasis is on listening with kindness, empathy, unconditional acceptance and non-judgment, so that each person can develop their own self-love and resources. The analysis of what is happening in the relationship during the sessions allows for the adjustment of the relationship with the family and friends on a daily basis.
The theoretical foundations of my training are also based on existential psychotherapy (anxieties of death, fundamental isolation, freedom, and lack of meaning; Yalom, May), the analytical current (Freud, Jung, Ferenczi), the systemic current (Elkaïm), the contextual approach (Boszormenyi-Nagy), the narrative approach, and the co-creative therapy (current current Quebecois current).
I added conversational trauma hypnosis (CTH) to these foundations after realising that couples’ problems often stem from the fact that one person’s deepest wound awakens and rubs up against the other person’s deepest wound. Hypnosis allows us to heal the traumas of each member of the couple, so that we can rediscover greater serenity and openness in our exchanges.
