AN ACCENT
​
“Audrey is blessed with that wonderful, mesmerising French accent which not only is delightful to listen to, it also smoothly transports you into a deep level hypnosis. And while the conscious mind is distracted by this accent, the unconscious mind is free to absorb the powerful messages of change - which is the very process of hypnotherapy: Distracting the conscious in order to communicate with the unconscious.” Lee Lacey, hypnotherapist.
BACKGROUND
​
A French native, I studied international business in Paris and I already knew as a student that I would live abroad. I had the opportunity to travel to many countries, but it was Australia where I had decided that I would move to. Everything fell into place in a matter of a few years and since then, not a day goes by without my being grateful to live in the “lucky country.” Grateful for the profound well-being that one feels here, the clear blue sky like nowhere else, the kindness of the people, the walks on the cliffs in winter -with whales in the distance- or the beach in summer -with dolphins, a bit closer…
Yet, quite rapidly, I resumed my studies and abandoned my career in international business to become a professional translator and medical interpreter in Sydney hospitals -mainly at St Vincent's Clinic- for French speaking patients. My role is to help the English speaking medical staff and the French speaking patients to communicate -and to understand each another!
However, I’ve always had a long interest in the powers of the mind. Fascinated by neuroscience, the unconscious, hypnosis and all kinds of ‘strange’ subjects, I have devoured hundreds (literally) of books over the past twenty years. I have also had various trainings and I finally resumed my studies -again- in hypnotherapy this time. For almost ten years now, with an Advanced Diploma in Hypnotherapy, Psychotherapy, NLP, EFT and EMDR, I have been offering my services to adults and children, in person in Sydney and online across the world, with the personal challenge of successfully changing my clients' lives in just a few sessions.
The French in Australia can therefore face their emotions in their mother tongue - as well as any other French speaker who feels more comfortable in the language of Molière. And of course, English speakers are also welcome to deal with their emotions in Shakespeare's language - revisited with a touch of French accent!
With so many mind-blowing (!) results obtained in so many different fields (trauma, health, addiction, phobia, anxiety, exams, career, sports performances, self-confidence… See “Areas treated and Testimonials” for more information), I know now that I can help at a different level, using my personal approach and adapting my techniques to each person’s specific needs.
Neuroscience has made substantial progress over the past two decades and demonstrates that the work taking place at the unconscious plane is real.
My greatest hope would be to see these modern techniques taught in schools. Imagine the well-being that children would experience if they were given tools that would allow them to develop self-confidence, self-love, self-esteem and self-respect. Techniques to fight anxiety or bullying - or better yet, to suppress one person's desire to bully another! Tips for passing exams. And the capacity to project oneself in the future by imagining being there, having succeeded, without any barriers, obstacles or limitations... What kind of children would we have in our schools? What kind of teenagers in our high schools? What kind of students in our universities? And what kind of adults in everyday life? It makes you wonder, doesn’t it…?
