Alexandre Bénétreau

Alexandre Bénétreau is a licensed clinical psychologist with a diploma from the University of Liège in adult clinical psychology. His practice, established in 2024 in the Vennes neighborhood of Liège, Belgium, offers psychological consultations grounded in an integrative and humanistic approach. Drawing from diverse international experience in psychiatry, addiction clinics, elder care, and human resources, the practice emphasizes personalized care and the therapeutic alliance as central to healing.

Overview

The practice welcomes adult patients for individual consultations and occasionally adolescents. The therapy approach is integrative, combining humanistic psychology centered on the person with tools from systemic therapy, motivational interviewing, and cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) methods. Special attention is given to the therapeutic relationship characterized by presence, respect for the client’s pace, kindness, and deep listening.

Best for

This therapy practice is best suited for adults and some adolescents seeking support for emotional distress, including but not limited to:
– Depression
– Personality disorders
– Burnout
– Substance use disorders and addictions

Approach

The therapeutic methodology emphasizes the quality of the therapeutic relationship, inspired by Carl Rogers’ person-centered therapy and the principles of nonviolent communication. Psychological assessments using structured tests, mainly from CBT, are employed to evaluate symptom severity and progress objectively.

Multiple therapeutic frameworks are integrated depending on client needs: schema therapy for personality disorders, motivational interviewing for substance use issues, and systemic/contextual approaches to understand social network impacts. Exploration of altered states of consciousness through dream work is also valued as a healing dimension.

Support

Sessions are conducted individually, either in person at the Liège office or remotely via secure platforms like Signal or Threema. The therapist maintains clear ethical boundaries, with policies on session cancellations and missed appointments, and issues necessary documentation allowing partial reimbursements from complementary health insurance plans in Belgium.
