Therapists in Montréal, QC

I am a passionate, and committed psychotherapist and Social Worker with over five years of experience connecting with clients and helping them to address and overcome their unique mental health and wellness needs. I am motivated to positively impact the clients that I serve, and I have the experience working in the fields of mental health, youth learning disabilities, and homelessness. I have a passion for providing opportunities and creating safe spaces for racialized people to openly share and discuss their lived experiences and mental health challenges within a supportive and understanding process that is free from stigma.

In my private-individual practice in social work, I offer psychosocial services. Active listening is my way to welcome you, in order to understand your situation, your needs and your aimed changes. Thereafter, with your consent and respecting your pace, we will explore your condition and your context in more depth. By using the techniques that seem most relevant to your situation, we will be able to identify and work on the aspects and difficulties related to emotions, perceptions, beliefs, culture, identity questions and relationships with your environment that may harm your mental health (anxiety, depression, social functioning)

Hi! I'm Jodie-Ann (they/them). I'm a Black queer social worker and community organizer based in Tio'tia:ke (aka Montreal, Quebec). Sometimes we have had experiences in life that can feel heavy, and they bring up emotions that can stay with us and overwhelm us. This can feel exhausting as it impacts our daily lives and our current relationships, and sometimes we can't understand why. With support, those experiences can be explored and worked through, creating space for the emotions that can often feel trapped.

First and foremost, I provide clients with a safe space in which they feel comfortable and heard. As someone with lived experience, I am all too familiar with the challenges of addiction and the destructive negative thought patterns that accompany them. I want to validate your experiences: You are not alone. Let's take the first step, together.

There are so many unknowns right now. It's natural to be feeling anxious, overwhelmed, exhausted, and unfocused. Dealing with all the current stressors means personal relationships are also strained. My clients seek out my expertise for help with pain from past experiences, feeling stuck, anxious, depressed or overwhelmed. Low self-esteem and self-sabotage are two of my specialties. Working together you will gain clarity and learn reliable tools to create a grounded, empowered, deeply contented life.

Yes , you can get better and live a happier and healthier life! In my work with my clients I am committed to helping and encouraging individuals and couples to find healthy and successful ways to become directors in their own lives.Clients are offered therapies that promote understanding, self expression, and self esteem which will ultimately lead you to being in charge of your own life. In a safe, supportive and non-judgmental environment we can build unique relationship that could transform your lives. Therapy is a journey of self- discovery and growth - let's embark on this journey together.

I'm a licensed psychotherapist and teacher of psychology at University. I teach the following courses: interpersonal relationship, interviewing techniques, intervention models, and personality psychlogy. I am a member of OCCOQ (L'ordre des conseillers et conseillères d'orientation). I offer an hybrid approach between humanistic and cognitive behavioral models. I believe in adapting to whatever works best for YOU, as a unique individual, while prirotizing action and concreteness. You will find me to be non-judgemental, culturally sensitive, creative and especially interactive in my style of intervention.

If you are struggling with relationship and interpersonal issues, life changes, substance use, and/or trauma, I hope to help you. I use a nonjudgemental, empathic and integrative approach depending on your needs and values. Because feelings and experiences often manifest through the body, we will pay attention to physical experiences with compassion and curiosity.

My approach to therapy is evidence-based, interactive, relational, & motivational. As I believe that the relationship between the therapist and client is what is most healing & helpful in therapy, I strive to create a comfortable & supportive atmosphere where difficult issues can be addressed. When people feel supported & understood; they are often more able to face challenges. I also help clients become more aware of the obstacles which prevent them from leading more satisfying lives & improving their relationships. Sometimes that may involve exploring past experiences and/or it may involve learning new concrete coping skills

Welcome to Delighted Soul Counselling and Consulting Services Inc.! It's quite common to feel concerned about how others see us, often comparing our paths to theirs and sometimes feeling that we don't quite measure up. This worry can become a significant challenge when it prevents us from fully embracing and expressing our true selves, leading us to conceal parts of who we are in an effort to fit in or to chase a life that doesn't align with our deepest ambitions. Our services are designed for individuals aiming to achieve their life goals or career advancement but are held back by fears of judgment or failure.

Taking the first step towards change is often the hardest step. I am here to support you in identifying and developing the skills needed to achieve your therapeutic goals. As a clinical social worker with 20 years of experience, my private practise focuses on individual therapy, family therapy and parenting. I work with children, adolescents and adults with issues such as, but not limited to, anxiety, low self esteem, social skills, transitions and relational issues. I also work extensively with parents experiencing challenges to establish a positive parenting approach that works for them and their child(ren).

After 20 years of practice, I am driven now more than ever to help individuals and couples achieve meaningful and courageous changes in their lives. Whether what ails you stems from symptoms of OCD, sexual addiction, depression, anxiety, relationship or other life challenges, I will take the time to listen to you with empathy and curiosity but without judgement. Our sessions will seek to enpower you to clearly articulate and implement the tangible changes you wish to effect in your life. I am well versed in cognitive behavioural therapies, mindfulness and brief solution-focused and intercultural therapies.

Do you need relief from anxiety, stress, or depressed mood…pronto? Are you going through a difficult transition or perhaps you have been dealing with this for a long time? I offer a confidential and caring space to discuss. I am a registered psychologist and I am versed in a variety of treatment modalities, namely CBT and psychodynamic therapy. I am not an advocate for “coping” with uncomfortable symptoms – these are usually modifiable and relief is possible. The therapeutic approaches I use are tailored to your specific needs and I only use techniques that have already been shown in research studies to be effective. Reach out today
