What is TRA, Creative non-directive relationship therapy®?
TRA, Creative non-directive relationship therapy® is based on a relationship of trust between the therapist and the client. This essential bond allows the client to open up and explore their emotions without fear of judgment. In this approach, the emphasis is placed on active listening and sincere empathy, two crucial elements for establishing a genuine connection between the therapist and their client. The therapist uses specific techniques, such as attentive listening and questioning, to help the client clarify their thoughts, better understand their beliefs, and recognize the patterns that influence their decisions.
One of the specificities of TRA, Creative non-directive relationship therapy® is its non-directive approach. Unlike other forms of therapy where the therapist plays a more directive role by offering explicit solutions or advice, the therapist guides the client toward better self-understanding, allowing them to find their own answers. This enables the client to feel in control of their own healing process while benefiting from the support and guidance of a professional. This gentle approach promotes a collaborative relationship where the client is at the center of the therapeutic process.

The positive influence of Colette Portelance in my life
Before starting my training, I had only a partial understanding of who I really was. Like many, I was influenced by external expectations, and my relationships weren’t always balanced. Colette Portelance’s approach profoundly changed my perception of myself and communication with others. During these three years, I learned to reconnect with my true essence, accept my vulnerabilities, and free myself from external influences.
This training allowed me to cultivate authentic communication, an essential tool for establishing deep and enriching relationships. The ANDC taught me that authenticity isn’t a weakness but a strength that opens the door to truer and more fulfilling relationships.
