About Gilonne Dorigny

With over 25 years of work experience in human rights, corporate innovation, entrepreneurship, and climate solutions, I turned my efforts to influence global healing to helping couples and families as family therapist and co-founder of BeSound. As an Emotionally Focused Therapist (EFT), I help couples, families, and individuals heal their relationships and overcome their challenges. At Silicon Valley International School, I apply attachment science and community mental health to support pre-K to 12 students, their parents, and their teachers. I co-founded BeSound, a neuroscience company that creates innovative audio-motor feedback software that enable users to turn movements into natural sounds, such as water, wind, or violins. BeSound\'s products are designed and validated by neuroscientists and clinicians, and have proven to be effective in treating PTSD, neurorehabilitation, and other mental health issues.My climate solutions contribution range from climate finance, leveraging capital markets and sovereign wealth funds, to innovating large scale protein production from factory farms to bioreactors and regenerative food systems.As an international criminal lawyer, I advocated for the rights of the people of Western Sahara to self-determination. I co-directed and co-produced of Stealing Klimt, a documentary about the restitution of Nazi-stolen art. I am fluent in French, Spanish, and English, and have a background in Public International Law. My mission is to use my expertise and experience to support healing.
