I am a doctoral level psychologist specializing in child and adolescent mental health. I aim to empower kids and teenagers to navigate their emotions and relationships with resilience and confidence. I use a blend of evidence-based interventions, including cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), to address challenges with anxiety, depression, relationships, self-esteem, and emotional dysregulation.

My name is Lise Bélanger, I'm a counsellor and psychotherapist at Bélanger Counselling Services. I work with individuals from ages 16 to the elderly. If you're feeling stressed, experiencing emotional distress or having difficulty with everyday life challenges, you may benefit from consulting with a counsellor.

I have a wealth of personal life experience and over 15 years of work experience in the mental health field.

I am a trained and skilled counselling hypnotist. By inducing a trance-like state, I help my clients activate the power of their subconscious mind to change behavioural patterns and ways of thinking that don’t serve their goals. With the use of hypnosis, I guide my clients to overcome addictions, phobias, stress, anxiety, panic attacks, and physical pain. Hypnosis has also been successfully used for smoke cessation, building confidence, and can help improve academic and physical performance. Clients report profound shift in energy levels and mental clarity. Most clients start to notice improvement after a couple of sessions.

Parenting is a rollercoaster, but adding a neurodevelopmental or medical condition to the mix makes it that much more challenging. I aim to treat emotional and behavioural issues, but also to help parents feel more confident about their parenting and feel more emotionally connected to their children despite the challenges.

I provide consultation and individual psychotherapy to adults and seniors experiencing a wide range of concerns such as anxiety, depression, stress, self-esteem issues, relationship problems, life transitions, vital crises, and workplace issues. I am currently working only in French and Spanish.
