Déborah Helle

Déborah Helle (she/her) is the first intimacy coordinator from France and Switzerland represented by the prestigious talent agency VMA in Paris.

As an intimacy coordinator, she has worked on Netflix television series, Swiss public television RTS series, and French feature films.

Graduated from HEAD–Geneva in film directing and from the Royal Central School of Speech and Drama in London in actor training and coaching, Déborah is committed to understanding power dynamics, prioritizing consent, and trauma-informed practices in order to create safe and inclusive approaches within the entertainment industry.

With seven years of on-set experience, Déborah has a strong background as an acting coach, guiding minors through intense and emotionally charged scenes involving violence and suffering. This strengthened her skills as an intimacy coordinator and shaped her methodology, providing a sensitive and appropriate framework and creating safe containers where actors can engage in vulnerable work.

In addition, her 20 years of experience in contemporary dance complement her work as a technical choreographer.
