English Speaking Online Psychologist

One-to-one support, wherever you are.

Why Seek Support?

Here are the main reasons for consultation that we can explore together.

Expat Life & Repatriation

Living abroad can be an exciting adventure, but also an emotional and identity-related challenge.

Changes in cultural frameworks, isolation, difficulties adjusting, mental overload, or family tensions may arise during these times of transition.

I offer individual online support—confidential and compassionate—in both French and English, tailored to those living abroad.

Work & Career

I also support individuals facing challenges related to work, career direction, or crises of meaning: burnout, mental overload, chronic stress, loss of motivation, or relational tensions.

With an understanding of both individual and organizational dynamics, I provide a space for attentive listening that reflects the realities of professional life, while honoring the uniqueness of each journey.

Life Transitions

Every life path is unique, and the reasons for seeking support are diverse.

Whether you’re going through a period of doubt, a personal change, relationship difficulties, or any other form of upheaval, this space is here to welcome you without judgment.

Feel free to come as you are, at your own pace, to be heard and supported.

A space to reconnect with yourself,
wherever you are.

ABOUT

Occupational Psychologist – Expat Psychologist – Cognitive Behavioral Therapy

I am Isabelle Bouvier, a qualified psychologist, and I offer online psychological support for adults, using a holistic approach that takes into account the personal, professional, and contextual dimensions of each situation.

My practice is based on attentive listening and a supportive environment, and draws on tools from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), as part of an ongoing specialization with the AFTCC (French Association for Cognitive and Behavioral Therapy).

I work with individuals facing various forms of distress: mental overload, personal questioning, life transitions, stress, or professional burnout. I also address issues related to expatriation, career guidance, and workplace tensions.

As a dual French-British national, my life experiences abroad have fostered a particular sensitivity to multicultural backgrounds and identity challenges related to mobility.

My practice is regularly supervised by a senior psychologist, in an ethical and committed approach that respects the professional code of ethics.

FAQ – Frequently Asked Questions

How does a remote session work?

Sessions are held online via a secure video link. All you need is a quiet space, a stable internet connection, and some time for yourself. The setting is the same as in-person: attentive listening, confidentiality, and respect.

Can I have a consultation if I live abroad?

Yes, consultations are designed to suit the realities of expat life. I offer support in French or English, regardless of your time zone or country of residence.

Is it confidential?

Yes, all sessions are strictly confidential. As a licensed psychologist, I adhere to the ethical and professional code of conduct, ensuring the same confidentiality as in an in-person practice.

Is it reimbursed?

Sessions are not covered by the French national health insurance (Sécurité sociale), as I am not part of the « Mon Soutien Psy » scheme.
However, some private health insurance plans (mutuelles) may reimburse part of the cost. An invoice can be provided upon request for reimbursement purposes.

Is it as effective as in-person sessions?

Yes, therapeutic work can absolutely be done remotely. Many people appreciate the comfort and flexibility of online consultations. What matters most is the quality of the therapeutic relationship and the safe, respectful space provided.

Who is this support for?

I work with adults individually on issues related to work, personal life, or life transitions (career changes, expatriation, mental overload, stress, etc.).
I do not provide therapy for children, couples, or families.

What should I do in case of emergency? 🚨

These sessions are not suitable for emergency or crisis situations.
If you are in immediate danger or distress, please contact emergency services in your country.
In France, call 15 (SAMU) or 3114, the national suicide prevention helpline (available 24/7).
From abroad, you can also contact an international crisis line such as Befrienders Worldwide: https://befrienders.org/find-support-now/sos-help/?
