Online Counselling for Ville-Marie - Montréal

Your relationships can be an incredible source of pleasure and connection, AND they can be the biggest source of tension and exhaustion. You might feel rigid and uncreative, or be falling into people-pleasing habits. You may feel overwhelming physical sensations of constriction, pain or numbness. You play a vast range of roles in your friendships, romantic & intimate dynamics, and at work. This can be a lot to handle, and you may be masking your authentic self. Creative arts therapy can offer new ways to find playfulness so you can relax into intimacy in your relationships, your body, and fully own the stories that shape you.

I am trained to help adults, children, adolescents, men, women, families, and professionals better cope with a wide variety of emotional, relational and personal challenges. If you are feeling overwhelmed, out-of touch with yourself or generally unhappy and enjoy a genuine conversation with another person willing to reach out to help, than I believe we would be a good fit. I developed an eclectic and culturally sensitive approach to therapy, heavily influenced by humanistic/existential, positive psychology, CBT, and expressive art therapy.

I am a doctoral-level registered Clinical Psychologist with 11 years of education and training. I completed my PhD at McGill University and subsequently pursued specialized postdoctoral training at the Stanford School of Medicine. I work primarily with adults experiencing mental and physical health concerns. I am a specialist in the treatment of chronic pain. I also have a particular interest and expertise in working with individuals experiencing perfectionism and procrastination. I commonly work with high achievers who are struggling to navigate challenges which interfere with their ability to find meaning and excel in their lives.

Your situation, needs, obstacles &goals are unique to you. Therefore the approaches used are tailored to best fit your specific needs. Before we explore the changes you want to make in your unique situation, we explore together to understand the nature of your problems or concerns in great depth and detail. I provide the safe, strictly confidential space for you to freely explore your issues at a pace that best suits you, while also encouraging your growth. I deal with issues related to anxiety, depression, stress, coping skills, relationships, changes after marriage, sexuality, existential questions, finding meaning after loss & other areas, with individuals and couples.

If you are feeling anxious, stressed out, or overwhelmed by sadness or anger, getting support often helps! Improve your relationships and reduce your suffering. I offer empathetic and supportive listening, practical techniques to help regulate your emotions, improve conflicts with the people in your life, and will accompany you in making sense of what you're going through.

Sometimes words are not enough. As a music therapist, I bring music-making and listening to the therapy room, facilitating individuals in expressing themselves creatively, developing new coping skills, and reconnecting with their authentic selves. Each session, whether it involves listening to music, improvisation on instruments, or engaging in songwriting, is tailored to the specific needs and strengths presented by my clients. I actively listen and provide support to participants, by playing my own music and through verbal reflections. No musical training is required to participate in music therapy.

I have over a decade of counselling expertise. I was specially trained in cognitive-behavior therapy under the late Dr. Micheal Spevack. I treat: panic attacks, fear of flying, depression, OCD, phobias, self-esteem, excessive worrying, procrastination, assertiveness, generalized anxiety, relationship isssues, sexual abuse and incest, insomnia, infertility, and general life stress. I also teach relaxation. I work with you, the client, together as a team on your special goals. We will achieve your goals in a successful, organized manner. I offer warmth and empathy in a supportive environment. Contact me so that you can begin your awesome journey to happiness!

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.

I have worked as a clinician for over 10 years. I work with individuals and couples as well as teenagers. I specialize in trauma, anger management, addiction and anxiety disorders. I have worked with different cultures, people and beliefs and provide a safe environment where people can self discover and heal. My therapy is a no judgement zone. I understand how difficult it can be to begin therapy and am here to make you comfortable and will work at your pace

We can all be negatively affected by life's challenges, overwhelming experiences, and hurtful events. For many, we reach a point where we cannot navigate alone, or in the same old ways. Needing help from others is in our nature as humans. Supportive counselling provides a confidential therapeutic space that is just yours. Together, we can move through the things that are blocked, painful, or frustrating - in ways that offer healing, grace and dignity.

I offer an individual psychotherapy service adapted to the needs and particularities of each one. My approach is integrative and aims to support those who are going through painful periods of life or experience deep dissatisfaction associated with emotional difficulties. I also work with individuals who, without going through a period of "crisis", wish to undertake a process of personal development.

Bonjour/Hello, and welcome to my PT Therapy Directory profile page. I am a PhD clinical psychologist with over 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.

Accepting new clients - Trauma can affect our day-to-day, fill us with anxiety, demotivate us, and leave us feeling powerless. Anger, frustration, low-self esteem, and grief, can weigh us down. I understand and I hope to walk alongside you on this adventure towards healing and support. Together, we'll create a safe space where your vulnerabilities are embraced, growth is nurtured, and you can take something out of each session.
