About
About Lenore
I am an American psychotherapist based in Alsace, France, offering therapy in English and French to clients across Europe and internationally.
My focus is on high-functioning individuals who appear to manage life well on the surface, yet carry recurring relational patterns, internal pressure, or a sense of disconnection that hasn’t shifted despite prior insight or self-reflection.
I practise Intensive Short-Term Dynamic Psychotherapy (ISTDP), an approach I chose because it creates faster, more lasting change than traditional talk therapy alone for the patterns my clients bring.
Living between cultures — as an American raising a family in France — has deeply shaped my understanding of how international life, identity, belonging, and cross-cultural experiences influence well-being and relationships.
Alongside my clinical work, I am a parent of three children. Parenting has enriched my appreciation of family dynamics and the day-to-day realities of sustaining meaningful connections over time.

Take the First Step
All conversations are completely confidential.
I offer a supportive yet focused space where you can safely explore these patterns that have been repeating in your life — whether they show up in relationships, internal pressure, or that quiet sense of disconnection.
You don’t need to have it all figured out. Simply get in touch with a brief note about what’s bringing you here, or request an initial consultation directly.
I reply personally within 48 hours to answer your questions and arrange a time that works for you.
Sessions are available online across Europe and internationally, or in-person in Turckheim, France.
