Something feels off — maybe for a long time. I work with adults whose anxiety, grief, or sense of being stuck traces back to loss, trauma, or a major life transition. Using EMDR and trauma-informed approaches, we get underneath the surface symptoms to what's actually driving them. For those grieving someone specific, I also offer IADC (Induced After-Death Communication) — a focused, two-session therapy for grief and loss. Available online across Ontario and in person in Montreal (Île-des-Sœurs). You don't have to keep carrying this alone.
Healing doesn't happen at the surface. When grief, trauma, or a life transition - a breakup, burnout, a career change, or not recognizing who you've become - leaves you unsettled, something deeper is often asking for attention. Using EMDR, IADC, mindfulness and existential therapy, we work with what's underneath, at your pace, with depth and care.
Reaching out takes courage, especially when you've been holding it together alone for a long time. Whether it's anxiety, grief, or feeling stuck, you don't need it all figured out to begin - whether you're just naming what's wrong or you've carried it for years. There is room for you here.
