Couples come to see me when they are caught in an escalating, upsetting pattern which they need help to get out of. They need better connection, communication, and cooperation with each other. Individuals come to see me with emotional pain and self defeating patterns of thinking and behaving. Working together as a therapeutic team I am able to help create a safe space in which recognition, understanding and validation and changes in outlook, attitude and behavior are learned and applied to create satisfying interpersonal and internal connections

When working with clients I believe in meeting them where they are and collaborating with them in both goal setting and on how to best achieve those goals. I am foremost a humanist in my approach to psychotherapy, deeply valuing the authentic meeting of two people who through the development of mutual trust, understanding and compassion can take on even the most difficult of challenges. I am passionate about viewing individuals and families through a holistic health lens and I incorporate that holistic/multi-systemic lens in all the work I do with clients.

Making change takes intention and courage. Finding meaning in everyday life and living in a way that we yearn to is no small task! I work with adults who wish to create change and feel happier in their lives. This could mean issues surrounding transition into adulthood, dating and relationships, substance use, school and professional goals, life transitions, work/family balance, parenting, long term relationships with partners. I have expertise in supporting family members of a loved one struggling with addiction. I also have an interest in family members touched by adoption.

Bérengère has a deep desire is to give individuals room to share their “broken pieces;” their scars, stories, experiences, perspectives, and struggles. She longs for them to consider: what does beauty look like for them? How can she help them envision a future laced with hope? She aims to walk alongside clients with gentleness and non-judgment, while offering and providing necessary tools and strategies aimed to shift belief systems and behaviors that aim to bring them harm; this is done with her unyielding belief that everyone has a story worthy of being heard, made sense of, and transformed.

I help sensitive and explosive people find the root of their upset so that they can stay in charge of themselves. Unmediated anger ruins relationships. The kids hide, the partner threatens to go and the colleagues call you a "screamer" behind your back. There's another way. I know how to follow these feelings back to the root. How did this fight get born? How did it grow? Who taught you how? Once you get to know yourself, you won't be surprised by a surge of feeling. It's an old friend. You'll know what to do because you've done the hard work of naming them in session. You will feel like people know the real you.

There are some hardships in life that cannot be easily forgotten. These experiences influence how we view ourselves and navigate relationships with others. There is a natural tendency to re-enact the woes because of it's familiarity. The therapeutic alliance will help us learn from the past, become more aware from the present, and establish a safe outlook for the future.

Trying to manage life is a never-ending journey. With what life throws at us like heartache, loss, and overwhelming moments that become trying. With us not knowing which directions to take and feeling all feelings at once we can end in areas of anxiety, depression and negative behavior patterns. In times we face adversity, we tend to already have a solution but have a hard time with the steps and changes needed to get there.

It can be really scary not feeling like yourself. It’s disappointing to exist without truly living or feeling a sense of purpose. It’s very painful and lonely losing a loved one/ending close relationships. There can also be a lot of depression, anxiety, and grief that comes with feeling stuck, letting go or dealing with situations you can't control. Without the proper support, life stressors can take a tremendous toll on your mental and emotional health and lead to trouble with your relationships as well as your overall functioning.
