Music therapist, a profession I have practiced with passion for nearly 40 years.
Pioneer of music therapy in Belgium, I was not initially destined for it. An episode affecting my family in the late 1980s directed me towards this avant-garde therapeutic approach.
I resumed studies in various fields and became a music therapist. After years of practice, in the late 1990s, I was hired as a trainer in Belgium and France.
A few years later, I joined the teams of Professor Faymonville and Professor Vanhaudenhuyse and collaborated on several projects for the Interdisciplinary Center for Algology at the University Hospital of Liège and the Sensation & Perception Research Group, GIGA Consciousness at the University of Liège.
In the early 2010s, I created a music therapy training program through HEPL at Forma+. This two-year training program is now accredited by ARES.
Throughout my career, I developed a specific technique and composed music for musical hypnosedation, which is used in several European countries.
