Grief Therapists in Montréal, QC
For the last 27 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.

These changes can last a lifetime, and form the foundation for more fulfilling, satisfying relationships.

Whether you're navigating conflict, communication difficulties, loss, changes in identity, or the lasting impact of past experiences, therapy can help you gain insight, develop healthier coping strategies, and build stronger connection
Life doesn't always unfold the way we expect. You may be struggling in your relationship, preparing for marriage, healing from a painful experience, or navigating a major life transition that has left you feeling uncertain or overwhelmed. Many of my clients come to therapy feeling stuck, disconnected, or exhausted from carrying the weight of stress, trauma, or difficult relationship patterns on their own. Together, we'll create a supportive space to better understand what's happening, strengthen your relationships, and help you move forward with greater confidence, clarity, and resilience.

My approach is based on listening, understanding and activation. Listen to understand and propel you into change. I use three basic approaches: Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Emotion-Focused Therapy (EFT) and Mindfulness. I integrate other modalities when necessary. CBT: to discover the thoughts and beliefs that affect your emotions and behaviors. EFT: to help you stop avoiding emotions and use them as carriers of information essential to your mental health. Mindfulness to bring a different way of being in the world, deal with stress and develop a dynamic relationship with your environment.

I work with adults experiencing various mental health concerns, including depression, anxiety, addiction, grief, life transitions, and interpersonal issues.
My approach is warm, supportive, and transparent; helping clients discover both their resilience and their potential. I know that therapy can involve difficult conversations and be an emotionally-intense experience so I also use humour (thoughtfully!) to foster connection, perspective, and moments of lightness.

I have over 14 years experiences working with individuals from all walks of life who've struggled with disability, addiction, abuse, anxiety, depression, ADHD, grief, and other life altering experiences.
We’ll work together to create a supportive space where you can talk through your experiences and build new skills. I use a strengths-based, solution-focused approach, drawing from Narrative Therapy and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), to help you navigate life’s challenges. Along the way, you can learn to open up, stay grounded in the present, and focus on what matters most so your values can guide the way forward.
You already have your own strengths, coping tools, and insight, even if they don’t feel obvious right now. Together, we can uncover those strengths and build on them so you can move forward with more confidence.

I work with mood disorders, grief, burnout, perfectionism, anger management, relational struggles, life transitions and building self-confidence.
Therapy isn’t about being handed a list of coping strategies and then sent on your way—it’s about exploring what’s beneath your feelings, challenging the beliefs that no longer serve you and facing uncomfortable truths. We’ll unpack the tough stuff—unresolved pain from past experiences, habits that leave you feeling stuck, and behaviours that hinder your progress—and uncover what’s standing between you and your goals.
