Psychosocial & psychosomatic support · Online

About

About me

Guérir means "to heal" in French. Healing rarely happens all at once; it grows from small steps, safe relationships and being heard.

Psychosocial support is about strengthening what already helps you cope: your relationships, your routines, your sense of safety and meaning. My role is to listen without judgement, help you make sense of what you're carrying, and build practical ways forward with you.

For more than 20 years I have supported individuals, families and groups going through stress, loss and difficult life changes, with community organisations and in private practice. I also train other practitioners and run mental health programmes. My work draws on Psychological First Aid, trauma-informed care and the IASC guidelines for mental health and psychosocial support (MHPSS).

FAQ

Questions

Is psychosocial support the same as therapy?

Not exactly. Psychosocial support focuses on wellbeing, coping and daily functioning. It does not include diagnosis or medication. If you need clinical treatment, I'll help refer you to a licensed psychologist or psychiatrist.

How do I pay?

By bank transfer, from Lebanon or abroad, then send me a screenshot of the receipt on WhatsApp. Card payment is coming soon. For other payment options, message me on WhatsApp at +961 81 062 060.

How long is a session?

Up to 45 minutes, depending on what you need that day. The fee is per session.

Which languages do you work in?

Arabic, English and French. Choose your language when you book.

Can I contact you between sessions?

Yes. Clients can message me on WhatsApp at any time and I reply as soon as I can.

I live outside Lebanon. What time will my session be?

All times on the booking calendar are Beirut time. The Google Calendar invitation you receive by email shows the session in your own time zone.

Can I reschedule or cancel?

Yes. Let me know at least 24 hours before your session and I'll move it or refund you. Late cancellations can't be refunded, but I'll always try to find another slot.

Where do online sessions happen?

On Google Meet. The link is in the calendar invitation you receive by email when you book. If your connection is weak, we can switch to WhatsApp video. Please find a quiet, private place for the session.

Do you work with children and teenagers?

I work with young people aged 13 and over, with a parent or guardian's consent. For younger children I offer guidance sessions for parents.
