I have an expertise in child and adolescent mental health, especially eating disorders and sexual abuse.
For the last 22 years I have shared my time as a psychotherapist and art therapist between the Division of Adolescent Medicine at the Montreal Children ’s Hospital and private practice at the Queen Elizabeth Health Centre. In addition, since 2005 I have taught in Concordia University's Masters in Art Therapy. I offer a therapeutic place for adults, children and teenagers to work individually. I work with a focus on both current maladaptive patterns, origins of current emotions, behaviours and thoughts, and a strong emphasis on one's sense of self, while always finding the strengths and resilience that is in each person.

As a CHILD and ADOLESCENT psychologist, I offer psycho-educational assessments (ADHD, dyslexia and other Learning Disabilities). I work with schools to ensure that your child gets the accommodations and support he or she needs. I also provide therapy to children and teens who struggle with behavior problems, anxiety and low self-esteem. Families undergoing divorce/separation are offered guidance and support. In my work I use the solution-focused approach that capitalizes on clients' existing strengths and helps them address problems in playful and creative ways. If you are worried about your child , it's time to act!

I have been working with children , adolescents, adults and athletes for over thirty years as a Clinical Psychologist in the Montreal area and extensive experience helping individuals with issues such as anxiety, depression, personal and family difficulties, and performance-related issues in athletes. My basic approach is pragmatic in that I help individuals develop a better understanding of the reasons that are responsible for feeling poorly, and more importantly, to develop strategies that will have a long-lasting, positive effect.

Does your child struggle with anxiety? Do worries make it hard for your child to settle into sleep?  Does he or she avoid trying new things or fear being away from you? While some worry is normal, chronic anxiety can undermine a child 's sense of safety and limit his or her ability to face new challenges and develop self-efficacy. Well-intentioned parents often respond to their child 's worries in ways that actually make things worse. In my virtual workshop for parents of anxious kids, I offer strategies that help children feel more secure, confident and resilient, so they can move through anxious feelings more easily.

Whether you are dealing with past trauma or current triggers that keep you from moving forward, there are always ways to process what has happened and how we can work together towards a more fulfilling future. As an art therapist with a trauma-informed lens, I incorporate counselling, somatic awareness, movement and play into my work, to enhance resiliency and promote healing. Issues I have worked on include intimate partner violence, self-harm, sexual abuse, and refugee, immigration and acculturation issues as well as intergenerational trauma.

The poem, The Imaginary Career (by Rainer Maria Rilke), illustrates exquisitely our human condition. To quote: "At first a childhood, limitless and free" only to become "Defiance- The child bent becomes the bender". To live in that ".. vast, cold empty space, alone" is a very painful place to find oneself. I am here to join with that person in the "empty space" so that they can understand themselves and heal.

Are you or your child /teen feeling stressed, anxious, depressed, or burned out? Would you like to change unhealthy habits, improve your relationships, self-esteem, and communication skills? Are you having difficulty adapting to a new environment/life transition? Today's fast-paced society can be difficult to survive and thrive in, especially if you are juggling multiple roles or experiencing life transitions, such as changing careers or starting life in a new city/country. It can be scary to reach out to a therapist because you want to make sure that you find someone who can speak your language and really connect with you.
