Who we work with:
We work with children and adults who struggle with a variety of mental health challenges ranging from mood disorders (like depression, anxiety, or bipolar) to traumatic events (such as childhood trauma, PTSD, grief, major life stressors, breakups, life transitions, and loss of job). We offer parental coaching and play-therapy to help parents and children manage oppositional or aggressive behaviors as well as attention deficit or hyperactivity. At MindSession Intercultural Psychology, we believe that mental health care should be accessible, culturally sensitive, and deeply human. Founded in 2020 in Montreal, Canada.
How we do it:
We offer both assessment and psychotherapy services to individuals and groups (i.e. organizations or communities) in person at our Westmount Offices or Online through secure and tested online videoconferencing technology. We utilize a number of different modalities and approaches depending on the clinician and the patient's needs.
How we feel:
Starting therapy and taking those first steps can be daunting but it usually pays off. We are warm and welcoming. We want to make sure you find happiness and are comfortable with what you choose to do. Our clinic was born out of a desire to bridge the gap between mental health support and the diverse cultural realities of today’s world.
