Dr François Le Doze
Founder & Director
Marie Tur
Coordinating Consultant
François Le Doze was a neurologist at Caen University Hospital for 30 years. He became a psychotherapist and made a major contribution to the spread of the Internal Family Systems (IFS) psychotherapy model in the French-speaking world through the publication of the books Système Familial Intérieur. Blessures et Guérison (scientific coordinator - Elsevier) and La force de la Confiance (co-author - Odile Jacob) and by becoming the first French-speaking trainer of this model.
His encounter with Polyvagal Theory marked a turning point in his understanding of psychology and psychotherapy. The Relational Intelligence® model he created is based on a neurobiological reading of psychological trauma and the human being's capacity to evolve towards healing. He firmly believes that relational security is the foundation of harmonious psychological development.
With this in mind, he founded Selfthérapie Formation (STF) in France and later Les Formations Self Thérapie Canada INC (STF Canada), to disseminate this model more widely and train qualified therapists.
As Coordinating Consultant, Marie coordinates and advises the administrative and pedagogical teams of STF Canada and STF.
