Françoise Raoult – Etterbeek

Françoise Raoult – Psychotherapist

Sometimes everything spills over: emotions jostle, confidence wavers, anxiety takes hold. Work and life can be exhausting, and past wounds can crowd the present.
My practice is a simple, quiet place to lay things down, make sense of them, and transform.

I am a humanistic, Gestalt-oriented psychotherapist trained in clinical psychopathology, EMDR, and narrative approaches. I support adolescents and adults facing raw emotions, strained relationships, separations, bereavement, addictions, anxiety, depression, sleep difficulties, somatic symptoms, and personal or professional exhaustion—including burnout.

My background—as a midwife with degrees in public health and education, and years of work in demanding contexts where life becomes complicated (under-resourced neighborhoods, conflict zones, disasters)—taught me the power of story and connection. It shaped a practice grounded in reality and nuance, respectful of each person’s pace and culturally open.

My constant thread is to help people bring forward their potential and emotions, and to recover meaning, momentum, and enthusiasm. We start from the present, illuminate the past when useful, and mobilize your resources to find a direction that feels authentically yours. When indicated, I integrate EMDR to reprocess traumatic memories.

Within the “Institut de Prévention et d’Accompagnement du Burn-out” (IPBO) network, I have the possibility to offer comprehensive, tailored care—based on an initial assessment—for personal and/or professional exhaustion and burnout (psychotherapy, body-based therapies, medical referrals, coaching, and legal guidance).

In parallel, as a consultant in organizational development and capacity building, I supervise teams, train health professionals and among other areas, I advise on workplace well-being within institutions, nonprofits, and companies.

Sessions available in French, Spanish, and English.
