Therapists in Ville-Marie, Montréal, QC

I am a registered Psychotherapist and Social Worker in QC. I subscribe to the idea that suffering is a natural part of the human experience; we suffer and experience discomfort so we can cope and grow. It is possible however that we can exceed our threshold of suffering and our normal coping mechanisms are no longer sufficient. This is when our discomfort begins to feel like pain, anxiety, and depressive thoughts and is no longer beneficial to our growth. I like to think of my role as the collaborator and support system for times like these.

I have worked with individuals, couples and families for over 20 years to help them overcome the challenges they face. I have also been actively involved in teaching and research into how to help bring about the change that you may seek. I am passionate about the work that I do and am devoted to helping my clients empower themselves and gain control over their lives. As psychologists we now have the tools to help with emotional difficulties and relationship problems. There is no longer any need to suffer alone and in silence. Effective help is available and you have already taken the first step

Do you feel overwhelmed by painful thoughts and feelings? That if only you weren't so_______(sad, anxious, depressed, shy, angry) that your life would be better? Many people try to get rid of painful thoughts, feelings, and physical symptoms. In fact, they work really hard to feel better, and yet.... they don't feel better. It is not for lack of trying that people decide to seek professional help. Our minds are designed to ruminate about problems until these problems are "fixed". That's why your mind is working so hard right now.

Starting therapy and counselling takes courage and can be a significant moment in one’s life. I provide therapeutic environment that is safe, supportive, and non-judgmental, grounded in compassion and empathy, which allows you to uncover new insights and move at your own pace towards the changes you hope to create. My approach is collaborative and relational, where clients develop a long-lasting and secure connection in a safe space.

With my more than 15 years of experience in psychotherapy, I can help you understand why you feel anxious, sad, or confused, and to make sense of your experience. I can support you discovering what is really going on with you, until the point when you feel at home and at peace with yourself, and thus be able to take control of your life and grow as a person. I am also a university professor teaching clinical psychology and a psychotherapy researcher, which allows me to combine evidence-based beneficial approaches to fit your unique situation and needs.

WhatsApp 54 9 11 4969-2189 - Primera entrevista gratuita - Terapia online para hispanohablantes - Trabajo desde el marco de la terapia cognitivo conductual ya que creo que la ciencia es el mejor método de aproximación al conocimiento en general y a la psicoterapia en particular. Me interesan los procesos de cambio conductual por los que una persona pueda alcanzar sus objetivos, transitando, aceptando y modificando sus patrones cognitivos y emocionales. Abordo patologías específicas como trastornos de ansiedad y del ánimo, y también crisis vitales y procesos de crecimiento personal.

I am a current Board Member of CAPT (Canadian Association of Psychodynamic Therapists). I've come to this professional life as a therapist after years as an English instructor (ESL), server, and professional musician. Many of us these days are feeling depressed and/or anxious about life and how to move forward. I know that it requires courage to trust another with your story, but there is so much to be gained from speaking about it. Together, we can work to discover a deeper sense and better understanding of who you are as a person. When you're ready, I'll be ready as well and we can work to change your life for the better.

Whatever it is that you have been trying to deal with, in therapy we can develop a better understanding and develop insights that can help you with any of the difficulties that you are facing and to be able to overcome them.

I help clients find ways to overcome new, and sometimes old, challenges as well as to adjust to limitations. I make therapy active, including running sessions outside the office for exposure when needed. I prefer to keep therapy time limited to improve accountability and maximize results for efforts.
