Siham Mehaimzi

Clinical psychologist specializing in ecopsychology, author, writing coach.
Living in Lasalle (France)

My intention is to lead participants to live an experience of beauty through writing, by journeying into their own depths in order to give birth to poetic, powerful and sensitive material. In a supportive environment, conducive to intimate work, I aim to bring each person into contact with their emotions and sensations in order to transform those into words full of life and strength.

Siham is a psychologist and gives writing workshops which drawing from her background as a poet. She has been writing since the age of eight and following her meeting in 2014 with Serge Pey began performing her texts at the Cave Poésie.

Driven by a commitment to feminism, she also performed her poems at festivals before being published in the journal Recours aux poèmes, followed by the publication of her first collection, Variations Androgynes, (Marsa ed.).

In order to further develop physical and vocal rootedness, in 2019 she attended the theatrical programme “Acteur au présent” by the company Théâtre de l’acte.
Her meeting with Corine Sombrun, who trained her in trance (T.C.A.I), was decisive in her connection to the living, her reliance on Nature, and the awakening of her ecological sensitivity.

Since her arrival in the Cévennes, she has sought to share spaces of living poetry.
She trained with Corine Sombrun, Eric Laudière, Dominique Collingnon, Michel Mathieu, Katharina Seyferth (student of Grotowski), Séverine Astel, and Jean Marc Matos.

She speaks French, Spanish, and English.
