Camille Roperch

State-Certified Psychomotor Therapist

I support children and adolescents in their psychomotor development when they encounter difficulties that may affect their daily lives, their learning, their behavior, their relationships with others, or their well-being.

Psychomotor therapy may be recommended when a child exhibits the following symptoms, among others:

* difficulties with psychomotor development 

* difficulties with coordination or motor skills 

* attention difficulties, psychomotor agitation 

* autism spectrum disorders (ASD) 

* difficulties with learning or writing 

* difficulties with emotional regulation (disruptive behavior, withdrawal, anxiety, etc.) 

* difficulties with spatial or temporal orientation 

* difficulties related to muscle tone, body image, or physical ease.

How does the support process work?

The assessment begins with a psychomotor evaluation, which provides a better understanding of the child’s functioning, strengths, and the challenges they face.

Based on this assessment and our discussions with the child and his or her family, we work together to define the goals of the support program.

Sessions are held weekly. Each session focuses on physical and psychomotor activities tailored to each child.

My approach takes into account the child as a whole: how their body, the way they move, and their relationship to space and time interact with their environment. A psychomotor therapy session is a space where the child can express and process their experiences through the body, movement, play, artistic activities, therapeutic relaxation, and more… 

In my work, I am committed to building a relationship based on trust and providing support tailored to each family, respecting everyone’s pace, with kindness, while offering practical ways to adapt daily life.

My journey

I am a state-certified psychomotor therapist (IFP–Sorbonne, Paris). I completed my training with a one-year master’s program in psychomotor therapy in Buenos Aires (UNTREF), followed by a research master’s degree at the Autonomous University of Barcelona. 

Since 2019, I have been working with children ranging from early childhood to adolescence through individual sessions and facilitated group activities (early learning groups, storytelling, dance, breakdancing, expressive arts and body awareness, family groups, etc.).

My clinical experience has included working with children on the autism spectrum in day hospitals, nonprofit organizations, and in their homes. I have also worked with NGOs that support children in migrant situations.

I am also continuing my professional development in various areas of psychomotor therapy and body-based therapies.
