View profileTrauma-focused therapy is an umbrella term for psychological approaches that work directly, and carefully, with the effects of trauma. These effects can include intrusive memories, nightmares, avoidance, constant alertness, shame or the sense of not feeling safe in the present.
Depending on the therapist’s training, the work may draw on Trauma-Focused CBT (TF-CBT), EMDR, body-oriented psychotherapy or compassion-focused therapy. Most approaches begin with safety, stabilisation and coping skills before any work on painful memories.
Before booking, it can help to ask a therapist about their training, their experience with PTSD or complex PTSD, and how they handle difficult sessions.
The Côte d’Azur attracts people from all over the world, and many international residents of Nice look for trauma-focused therapy in English or their own language. Depending on the therapist’s training, the work may draw on TF-CBT, EMDR, body-oriented or compassion-focused methods, always starting with safety and stabilisation.
You can choose a therapist who works in English, French or another language; the languages are listed on every profile. Many complementary health insurances (mutuelles) and international expat policies reimburse part of private sessions, so it is worth checking your contract. The first session is a good moment to talk about your expectations and see whether trauma-focused therapy suits you.

It is a family of psychological treatments that work directly with the memories, body reactions and beliefs left by traumatic experiences, such as EMDR, trauma-focused CBT and body-oriented approaches.
EMDR and trauma-focused CBT are the approaches most often recommended in international clinical guidelines for post-traumatic stress. The best choice also depends on the type of trauma, your preferences and the therapist’s training.
Not necessarily. Some methods, such as EMDR or somatic approaches, need only brief contact with the memory. A good therapist builds safety first and lets you decide how much to share.
Yes, many trauma therapists work online, including with EMDR. Make sure you have a private, quiet space and agree with your therapist on what to do if you feel overwhelmed during a session.
Our therapists do not provide emergency care. If you are in immediate danger, call 112 (EU emergency number) or your local emergency services.
It depends on the therapist. Some see clients in person in Nice, others work only online by secure video, and some offer both; the format is indicated on every profile. Online sessions can be a practical option if you live elsewhere on the Côte d’Azur or spend part of the year away.
Yes. Therapists in the network work in English, French and other languages. See the English-speaking and French-speaking therapists in Nice, or check the languages listed on each profile.
Psychiatrists are medical doctors, and their consultations are covered by the Assurance Maladie when you follow the coordinated care pathway. Sessions with psychologists and psychotherapists are mostly paid directly. Under the “Mon soutien psy” scheme, a limited number of sessions with participating psychologists can be partly reimbursed, and many mutuelles or expat insurances refund part of private sessions: check your contract. Therapists give you an invoice you can submit.
Fees are set by each therapist and displayed on their profile. The indicative ranges shown on this site are around €80 to €180 per session for most individual approaches, €120 to €220 for couples or family sessions and €70 to €130 for coaching, career counselling or parenting support. A session usually lasts 50 to 60 minutes, weekly or every two weeks.
Therapy cannot respond to emergencies. If you or someone near you is in danger, call 112 (European emergency number) or 15 (SAMU, medical emergencies). For suicidal thoughts, the national prevention line 3114 is free and available 24/7.
Start with what matters most to you: the language, the topic you want to work on, the approach, in-person or online sessions and the fee, all shown on the profiles. If you would like help choosing, tell us what you need and we will suggest therapists. Your impression after the first session counts too.
