Martine is magical, she sees into people. She has found what was my problems and where I was stuck in the first 20min, that was crazy spooky ! She really helped me changing my life for good, and get rid of bad relationships as well as bad habits of self devaluing ! I’m not afraid anymore of having conflict when necessary and I’m not avoiding them anymore. She is wonderful ! Highly recommend her ! Especially narc people : go see her, she brings healing !

Thanks to Martine, I met my partner. She helped me see myself as beautiful and feel desirable. I found my own power and soon met someone. She is so relaxed, with no judgement or taboos. She restored my confidence when I thought all was lost. I felt heard and reassured, even if she did occasionally give me a kick up the backside (laughs). Go and see her, you’ll see!

I felt a connection straight away: a clear, structured perspective and way of communicating, with effective tools and methods. I could feel myself making progress in every session and between sessions. We covered different areas: how I see myself, forgiveness / reconciliation / bringing the parts of myself together and self-love, relationships with others… Martine is like a guide who reveals the closed doors within us and helps us uncover their locks and find the keys again.

Martine has a very unique combination of cutting to the chase and making you feel safe at the same time. She tells you straight, how things are and knows which tools to pick for your situation. I took some sessions with her to gain more understanding about how to work with clients on the narcissist spectrum. The hand on information I got from her in just a few sessions, was so valuable, it changed a lot in my work with my clients! She is incredibly experienced, witty and resourced! I highly recommend her work, especially also for other coaches or therapist that need supervision with challenges in their work! You will find an answer to your question with Martine!

Martine listens, is empathetic and knows how to challenge you without being too pushy. She helps you question what is not working, what no longer works and what needs to change.

Martine is very effective. I had a two-hour coaching session for coaches, and every moment was relevant and helped me move forward. I became aware of things that mattered to me. That session brought me closer to my goal. Thank you, Martine.

Martine is the best coach I know. Thanks to her coaching and kindness, I was able to literally change my life and reconnect with my passions and what makes me feel alive. She taught me to accept and love my shadow sides, and therefore to accept myself as I am. Thanks to her, I was able to take the steps I needed to heal my narcissistic patterns of abuse and manipulation, and I am now working towards, and committed to, being genuine. For all of that: thank you, Martine!

Martine is brilliant. She was the catalyst for a change in my career direction and for starting the process of getting an autism diagnosis. Her natural, intuitive ability to quickly see the source of my problem probably saved me years of therapy!

Martine is an incredible therapist. Thanks to her, I was able to come out of depression. I would not have managed it without her. Today, I can say that I am doing well, so thank you, Martine!

I was crying every day when I started sessions with Martine. I was broken after a very difficult pregnancy and birth, with a partner who did not help me and a baby who was difficult to care for. She really helped me rebuild myself, find myself again and recover my desire to live. She helped me take on my parenting responsibilities without constantly suffering, make myself understood and get support. I learnt and accepted that I was not perfect. And that feels good! I really recommend her!

Martine is exceptionally skilled and knowledgeable as a coach that is trauma-informed and I gained much value from only a few sessions working with her. My experience of Martine is extremely compassionate, sincere, wise and direct. She was very intuitive to what I needed each session and provided very effective tools and processes. Highly recommend!!!

Martine helped me through the most difficult time of my life. I can honestly say that I do not know if I would’ve come out alive without her help, guidance, kindness, knowledge, expertise and understanding. Martine has truly been a blessing in my life and I recommend her to anyone who needs to get out of a toxic relationship, is stuck in a dark place or needs to find a way to create real lasting change in their life.

Martine worked with us when we were starting our company. Three partners, with three visions that differed on certain points. She helped us genuinely picture our future and bring both our temperaments and our ambitions into harmony.

Martine is effective. With gentleness and empathy, she supported me at my own pace. Her explanations helped me understand a lot of things for myself; I had expected, or feared, something more emotionally unsettling. And yet we did some Hard Shadow Work at the end, at my request. After every session, I had understood something else about myself, healed it and taken away another healing tool to help me manage on my own. A mother of two, very curvy, with a severe lack of self-esteem and self-love and an abusive, traumatic childhood behind me, I went through a turbulent, violent end to my marriage and divorce, a job loss and a succession of relationships with abusive narcissists who drained me. Today, I have learnt not to fall into that cycle any more: to recognise it, free myself from it, love myself and accept receiving in turn, instead of constantly giving in the hope of getting something back. I can even pick up signs of other people’s wounds in their reactions, like the ones I used to have myself. I recognise the echo, which gives me distance and discernment. Martine’s genuine, direct yet gentle, clear approach was a gift to me. I do not like beating around the bush and I was not there to waste time, but I was afraid. In a two-hour session, believe me, you work, you do not waste a minute, and you need a drinks break in the middle! I was fed up with being stuck. No longer stuck. I became the person taking charge of my life: strong, confident and calm. Emotionally stable, in seven or eight sessions (the last was mainly about my need for validation and confirmation), with a complete, harmonious transformation towards what I wanted. I did this work a year ago, and I can see that what I gained has stayed with me. I have chosen new adventures, with the difference that I chose them rather than having them imposed on me, and I now have the tools and independence to navigate them. Pay a therapist partly reimbursed by social security for ten years, or really invest in yourself to change your life in a few sessions? 🙂 Don’t even hesitate. Act. Thank you, Martine!

We had a colleague who did not want to work. It was impossible to send him on assignments with clients if he did not like them. It was becoming a problem because it created tension within the team… and resentment. Martine came in to carry out an assessment and provide conflict-management training. It really helped us learn how to say things to one another honestly, without overly polite diplomacy, and reach a shared understanding. If she had not stepped in, we would have closed the company because it was causing us too many problems.
