Here is a list (in French and English) of books, websites, organisations and applications that have shaped my practice and that may help you find insight on a certain topic.

Lectures are however not a real substitute for therapy nor coaching as they lack the deep inner work, introspection and accountability that leads to change 🙂

This list will be updated periodically!
