Psychotherapy and psychoanalysis in Montpellier for adults, couples, teenagers and children

Psychotherapist and Psychoanalyst in Montpellier

A psychotherapist in Montpellier who can help you feel better. Quickly.

How I can help you

My experience of life abroad and my multicultural family here in Montpellier, make me aware of the issues experienced by someone not living in their own country, or that form part of a mixed couple.

Talking therapy in English may facilitate your progress if French is not your native language.


I treat adults, teenagers, children, and couples, using a range of counselling and therapeutic methods to help with:


  • Anxiety, stress
  • Panic attacks
  • Trauma (child abuse, sexual abuse...)
  • Psychosomatic disorders (chronic pain...)
  • Mental health problems
  • Relationship problems, couples therapy
  • Sexual issues
  • Phobias (fear of flying...)


Do not hesitate to contact me to book your first consultation. You can then freely ask any questions you might have, with no obligation of a follow up.

Hello, I'm Gorana Arnaud  

I am an English-speaking therapist in Montpellier, France, registered with the local health authority (ARS); my practice is situated in the historic centre of Montpellier.


I have master’s degrees in both Psychoanalysis and Psychotherapy and am trained in therapeutic hypnosis. I am also a guest lecturer at the University of Minnesota study abroad program in Montpellier. I have over 25 five-star reviews on Google.


Although I received the bulk of my training by Freudian academia psychoanalysts, I incorporate various modern practical tools into my work, in order to provide you with the very best of therapy.


More about me

Different therapies

Psychotherapy

In a psychotherapy session, the patient and the therapist are seated in armchairs facing one another to quickly resolve a symptom or deal with a stressful situation.

Psychoanalysis

A psychoanalysis session takes place on the couch. It identifies and transforms patterns in how we think and act and goes to the inner core of our struggles.

Hypnosis

Hypnosis is a brief therapy to tackle a specific issue and lasts no more than five or six sessions. It requires a motivated subject to succeed.

Other therapeutic tools

I sometimes user newer therapies (which really are inherited from the past), such as Mindfulness and cognitive-behavioural therapy (CBT).
