Do you find yourself overthinking, worrying, or getting stuck in self-doubt? Does your mind jump quickly to worst-case scenarios, leaving you second-guessing yourself, worrying about your health, or feeling pressure to meet very high standards? Over time, this can feel exhausting and may leave you feeling overwhelmed and disconnected from the life you want to live. I am a psychologist in Montreal and the West Island working with adolescents and adults experiencing generalized anxiety disorder, social anxiety, depression, and perfectionism. Many of my clients are high-functioning on the outside but carry significant worry.

In therapy, we slow things down to understand the patterns that keep you stuck. While we use CBT and ACT to address current thoughts, emotions, and behaviours, we also look at how longer-standing patterns, including early experiences and relational dynamics, may contribute to present difficulties.

I work alongside a diverse team of therapists, including clinical interns, which allows for flexible fees and improved access to care. We offer inclusive and culturally sensitive therapy in Montreal. Reaching out can be the first step toward changing how much space anxiety takes up in your life.
