Dr. Sébastien COHEN

Therapeutic Approach & Protocol The care offered at the clinic follows an integrative approach. Based on the EsCo Protocol, it includes:

• Biological component: Application of functional psychiatry aimed at identifying associated biological imbalances.

• Therapeutic component: Tailored guidance combining EFT and EsCo Hypnosis to deactivate and release emotional burdens related to conscious or unconscious trauma. These events are often at the root of PTSD (Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder) and give rise to various associated conditions (anxiety, depression, burnout, bipolar disorder, cognitive or attentional difficulties).
