Marie Condemine , M.A. (France)

As a French clinical psychologist, my extensive experience supporting teenagers and adults through a broad spectrum of mental health challenges has deeply influenced my approach and commitment. Over nearly a decade working in public mental health facilities in Paris, France, I have encountered a wide variety of disorders and personal situations. This experience has enriched my understanding, from managing complex acute cases to navigating the subtleties of individual recovery. These fast-paced years have reinforced my dedication to making a difference during critical life stages, particularly for teenagers and young adults, with a specialized focus on early detection and intervention, as well as addressing the unique challenges of pregnancy and the early stages of parenthood.

My approach is rooted in a multi-dimensional and integrative framework, which I believe is essential for truly understanding each point of view and co-creating a therapeutic process to overcome challenges and achieve meaningful journey. Recognised for my genuine and hardworking nature, I view success not only as symptom relief but also as helping you being empowered, balanced, resilient and truly in your rightful place. This is my commitment through a collaborative, unconditional and informed approach.

Striving for excellence, I emphasize innovative, evidence-based practices in my work and maintain a keen interest in clinical research, as reflected in my several publications. A central focus of my practice is dispelling stigma and enhancing awareness surrounding mental health by training both the community and healthcare professionals. Additionally, I consult for mental health facilities, supporting the development and implementation of progressive practices.

I work with teens 14+ years and adults, and I work in English, French and Spanish (Castellano).
