About me

I am Ingrid Valentin.  I grew up in Brussels and have always been fascinated by the brain and our potential. During high school, I already immersed myself in how our brain makes the phenomenon of "synesthesia" happen and how I could use this to tutor younger students. After being a translator for several years, I decided made the leap to become a psychologist. 

In 2014, I had the opportunity to do an internship at a well-known psychotherapy and neurotherapy centre in Spain. I had discovered my passion.

Now I run a series of centres for neurotherapies (NeuroVP) and have my own psychotherapy practice. 

I am still fascinated by new developments and have been working since 2018 to make online therapy possible, but also to make it as effective as face-to-face therapy. Many techniques I use in online sessions are my own adaptations to make familiar efficient techniques "work" with webcam contact. 

Many people find online therapy more approachable because they don't waste time in traffic jams and waiting rooms. Clients can also stay at home if they have mobility problems or are particularly anxious.

And finally, I use the latest insights in neuroscience not only when supervising my neurotherapy colleagues, but also, for example, under the form of psychoeducation or recommendations for my own clients.
