Mentoring

Let's walk a piece of the road together.

For students needing a solid thesis reference and music therapists looking to unlock clinical stalemates.

Who it's for

Three paths, one travel companion

Mentoring is for everyone. Everyone starts from a different point, but the direction is the same: growth.

For Students

I accompany you in writing your thesis, defining your final project, or preparing your certification exam.

  • ✓ Content structuring
  • ✓ Bibliographic research orientation
  • ✓ Methodological solidity review

For Professionals

Support and supervision on clinical cases, design of interventions or unblocking of clinical impasses.

  • ✓ Case analysis and strategy
  • ✓ Project design (grants, structures)
  • ✓ Professional identity consulting

For the curious

Not in the field but curious about music therapy? Want to understand how music can help you, a family member, or a project? Let's talk.

  • • Understanding music therapy
  • • Music and personal well-being
  • • Navigating proposals
  • • Questions without embarrassment
How it works

Three steps, no complications

1

Write to me

Tell me who you are, what you do, what you need. There is no question too simple or too strange. Use the form below, or send me an email.

2

Let's talk

We'll schedule a video call. I listen, I ask questions (the right ones), and we look for the direction together. No obligation, no sales.

3

Walk together

If it makes sense for both of us, we continue. One meeting, three, ten — it depends on the path. The important thing is that with every step you feel lighter.

What we can talk about

The topics

Here are some areas where I can accompany you. But they are not the only ones — bring me your question.

Clinical Supervision

Case analysis, reflection on the therapist's self, intervention strategies. From daily practice to deep doubts.

Therapeutic Songwriting

Facilitated composition techniques, using the song as a clinical tool. My specialization for 20 years.

Community Music Therapy

Designing community interventions, working in teams, music therapy in the territory. "Doing together" as care.

Career and Profession

VAT, rates, contracts, billing. Everything they don't teach in school but you need to make a living.

Educational Orientation

Which school to choose? Conservatory? Master's? I'll tell you the landscape without hiding anything.

Music and Well-being

For those not in the field: how music can help you in everyday life. No technical jargon, just substance.

"I don't want to be right about music therapy. I want to be happy in music therapy."

— A Light-Hearted Journey Through Music Therapy, ep. 31

Why mentoring

The perspective of a senior

After 35 years in this profession, I have probably already made, observed or supervised most of the mistakes it is possible to make.

With mentoring I don't give you ready-made recipes. I help you change lenses, see what you haven't seen yet in your thesis, in your clinical project or in your interaction with that patient who is putting you in crisis.
