Is your child or teen struggling? Feeling overly worried about COVID-19, going back to school and how to fit in? Or maybe your child is withdrawn or acting out? As a professional art therapist, I help kids and teens find a voice through art when words alone fail them. Art therapy is particularly well-suited to young people because it is a non-threatening way to communicate and work through difficult issues.

NOT CURRENTLY ACCEPTING NEW CLIENTS Feeling sad, guilty, panicky, overwhelmed? Everyone experiences periods of stress, anxiety, grief, and conflict, so when you're feeling off it can be hard to know if it's time to see a professional. The fact that you are looking for a psychologist is a good indicator of your readiness to do something different. I am a psychologist licenced by the Ordre des Psychologues du Québec and I have experience in helping people with a large breadth of difficulties. I am trained to offer both CBT and psychodynamic therapies.

I help my clients by working with them to develop a genuine and meaningful relationship that can unfold, modify and heal the unconscious imprints left by old, negative patterns of relating. Our work together will explore your experiences, feelings, and imagination, reflecting both a narrative process and also an intuitive one which deepens as we develop understanding through authenticity, sharing, and trust.

Have you and your partner lost your connection? Do you get stuck in repetitive cycles of blame and defensiveness? Do you wonder whether you partner is really there for you? That you matter? As a licensed Couple and Family Therapist and Psychotherapist, I look to the science of relationship to help. I specialize in Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) for couples, which helps strengthen the emotional bond between partners by identifying, then changing, the destructive patterns of interaction that distance and divide. EFT is empirically validated and has the highest success rate of any couple therapy approach.

Are you searching to better understand yourself, or to shift out of disappointing repetitive patterns? Or perhaps you need help with a stressful circumstance or relationship? Whatever the reason, choosing a therapist can be an overwhelming process; it is essential to find a good fit. My approach is collaborative and non-judgmental, and I believe in teaching strategies that can help you long after ending therapy. Together, we will discover what makes your brain unique and practice new behaviours to help shift you out of stuck habits. I will encourage you to step a little out of your comfort zone each week.

As a Creative Arts Therapist, I work with people-pleasers, outcasts, survivors, solution-seekers, worriers, warriors, and adventurers ages 6 to 106. I want to help you arm yourself with awareness, openness, and coping skills. In sessions, we would use playful methods transcending traditional talk therapy to aid you in feeling capable of handling life's inevitable instabilities.

Bonjour/Hello, and welcome to my PT Therapy Directory profile page. I am a clinical psychologist with 20 years experience - and a member of the Ordre des psychologues du Québec. I help people with anxiety, stress, depression (or loss of a loved one), eating disorders (anorexia, bulimia and binge eating disorder), and individuals or couples with relationship difficulties. I believe in building a collaborative therapeutic relationship with clients, and in using scientifically-proven therapy practices to get the best results. I can help if you would like to talk about the difficulties you or your loved ones are facing.

Working from Psychodynamic perspective I provide adults and adolescents with a safe and supportive environment in which we address and make sense of real-life experiences that may be contributing to depression, anxiety, addictions, problems with self-esteem and relationships difficulties.

I am a psychologist with a passion for people and a deep and abiding respect for the courage that makes us whole. I believe we are our own map makers and possess what we require in order to navigate our unique course. Sometimes the journey is a solitary one, at other times it is shared. Therapy, as a collaborative engagement, is a place and a space to connect with one’s own knowing. You are your own best expert ... and beginner.

Therapy can help people better understand themselves and find greater meaning in their lives. People enter therapy for a wide range of reasons, often involving difficulty solving a problem in their lives on their own. Some people, for example, are having difficulty in a romantic relationship and wonder how to improve the relationship, or end it. Other people experience conflict or anxiety in a wide range of interpersonal relationships and enter therapy as a means of improving their communication skills and the quality of their relationships. I help people in both monogamous and polyamorous relationships.

No matter what problem you are facing, you do not have to do it alone. Life is wrought with ups and downs and my ultimate goal as a therapist is to help clients work through problems. I strive to help people find the tools they need to achieve the best possible outcomes allowing them to live their best lives. I understand that sometimes it can be difficult to put into words the exact nature of what is troubling you but I am confident that with dedication we will find a solution.

I believe in the human being and his or her capacity to re-build. I find that there is nothing more important than a willingness to develop compassion for oneself and one's situation. For me, the therapy is a place to reconnect with emotions, and begin a very important journey within the supportive therapeutic relationship.

I am glad you have made the decision to seek therapy to make changes in your life. I would be happy to work together to help you accomplish your goals. I am experienced in working with clients struggling with anxiety, depression, and relationship problems. I frequently work with individuals from the LGBTQ+ communities. In my private practice, I see adults in individual psychotherapy. J'offre également mes services professionnels en français.

Psychotherapy is a good place to ease suffering, to arrive at more satisfying decisions, and to gain vitality. Are you worried about certain symptoms, or feeling unable to cope with emotions? Maybe you are discouraged, confused, or unsatisfied with "stuck" patterns in your relationships. Therapy offers a re-looking at what is close to us already. Sometimes, we recognize what we know, but in a different way. What frees us from lonely paralysis or the repetition of unsatisfying behaviour or thinking is the presence of another. This blind circle of reflection only opens up when there is someone to talk to.

Have you been anxious or depressed lately? Do you need help improving your self-esteem or your relationships or your work-life balance? Member of the Ordre des Psychologues du Québec with a Ph.D. in psychology, I can help you feel better, manage your anxiety, cope with depression or with an Adjustment Disorder or ADHD. I can also help you identify your patterns and how to adapt in order to live a more satisfying life. I have also studied and worked in Management Coaching and Career Coaching, so I can also help you improve your leadership or to determine a path in accordance with your aspirations, personality and values.

**Not currently accepting clients**. Change starts with the relationship that we form in the therapy and then continues by building useful skills in and outside of our sessions. In practice this means that I fit best with clients who are interested in (1) understanding more about their thoughts and emotions while also (2) taking clear steps to improve their mental and physical well-being. My job as the therapist is to provide a warm and caring environment to support the client in this process.
