Aurélie has extensive experience working individually with children and adolescents from diverse cultural backgrounds. Having moved from France to London more than 25 years ago, she is able to work with equal effectiveness either in English or French.

 Her work with children, adolescents and their families, covers a wide range of issues. Central to her practice is the relationship   between the psychotherapist and client, which provides a vehicle for re-experiencing past relationships, conflicts, feelings and beliefs, in a setting where these can be thought about and understood.
