Meet me
In this two-minute video (in French), I explain how I work: we set a SMART goal together, then hypnosis helps you reach it, while you stay in control of your choices.
You will know who you are talking to before you even book your call.
Does this sound familiar?
- Your days run into each other and the stress never really switches off, even at weekends.
- At night your mind keeps racing and your nights are too short.
- You have everything on your mind, all the time: your mental load is overflowing.
- You doubt yourself when you need to speak up, say no or assert yourself.
- A habit weighs on you (smoking, snacking, screens) and willpower is no longer enough.
- A fear holds you back: flying, heights, crowds…
None of this is a lack of willpower. These are automatic patterns, and an automatic pattern can change. That is exactly what hypnosis, used with method, makes possible.
How I can help
Four main areas, and other goals are possible too.
Stress & anxiety
Regain calm and clarity when the pressure never eases.
Sleep
Fall asleep more easily and get back to sleep after waking at night.
Confidence
Speak up, assert yourself, dare: build self-assurance.
Quitting smoking
Cigarettes, vapes, snus: free yourself from cravings and automatic habits.
Also: weight and sugar, addictions, phobias and fear of flying, career transitions, PMS and perimenopause, sexuality.
Your programme in 4 steps
A method drawn from project management: a precise goal, clear steps, measured results. For example: “fall asleep in under 20 minutes, five nights out of seven, within six weeks”.
1. Discovery call
15 minutes, free and with no commitment: you tell me about your situation, and I tell you honestly whether hypnosis is right for you.
2. Clarify
We turn a vague wish into a precise, measurable SMART goal, then start the hypnosis work.
3. Measure and reinforce
We measure progress against your starting goal, reinforce what works, adjust, and raise the goal if needed.
4. Consolidate
We anchor the change so that it lasts, and you leave with a self-hypnosis tool.
On average 3 sessions of 60 to 90 minutes, 2 to 4 weeks apart, in Nyon or online. The number of sessions is agreed with you from the start.
What makes the difference
A results culture
Ten years in industrial engineering and project management taught me to start from a precise goal, measure and adjust. I bring the same rigour to your programme.
A clear, focused framework
From the start, you know where we are heading and how many sessions are planned. A short, high-value programme and straight talk.
A personal commitment
I can’t promise results on your behalf; I commit all my expertise and a rigorous method to your goal.
People first
Kindness, non-judgemental listening, discretion. An approach that takes your working life into account, without being limited to it.

Frequently asked questions
What is hypnosis?
Hypnosis is a natural state of relaxed concentration, a bit like being absorbed in a book or a film. In this state it becomes easier to step back, make choices and change automatic patterns. It is a tool serving a goal you have set.
Will I lose control?
No. You stay aware of your body and your surroundings, you hear everything and you can stop the session at any time. Afterwards, you remember how the session went.
Are sessions available in English?
Yes. The discovery call and all sessions are available in English or French, at the practice or online. The rest of this website is currently in French.
How many sessions will I need?
On average 3 sessions of 60 to 90 minutes, 2 to 4 weeks apart. The exact number is agreed with you from the start, depending on your goal. Some people notice a change after the very first session.
Is it covered by health insurance?
No. I am not accredited by ASCA or RME, so sessions are not reimbursed by basic or supplementary health insurance. Employers can cover all or part of the cost for their staff.
Does hypnosis replace medical treatment?
No. Hypnosis complements medical care and never replaces it. Never change or stop a treatment without your doctor’s advice.
How much does a session cost?
The fee is given during the discovery call, once your goal and the format of the programme are clear, before any commitment.
Let’s talk about your goal
In a free 15-minute call with no commitment, you tell me what you would like to change. I’ll tell you honestly whether hypnosis can help, and how we would work together. No sales pressure.
