Sophie Delaunay Vagliasindi

I am a clinical and developmental psychologist with a strong belief in the importance of continuous learning and integrating many different theoretical perspectives in one's work. I love learning and striving to better understand the human experience. We are all different. We possess our own internal universe and external world that shape our thoughts and emotions. I believe moments of discomfort can lead to profound personal growth and insight. Not everything can and needs to be rationally explained, but the desire to better understand oneself is often central in therapy. I emphasize a listening and integrating approach, where I engage deeply with my clients, fostering a therapeutic relationship that is collaborative. I invest myself in this relationship too, hoping to create the safest space possible for exploration and healing. To quote Carl Jung: "one who looks outside, dreams. One who looks inside, awakens". Through my scientific career focusing on brain metabolism and the gut-brain axis, when desired, I can also offer insights into how the body influences our thoughts, as much as our thoughts influence our bodies.
