Relationship Issues Therapists in Pointe-Claire, QC

Everyone at some point in their lives will experience events that lead to troubling thoughts, feelings and even pain. Whether it’s having relationship problems, going through large life changes, a stressful work environment or not letting your past go, it may simply be too much to make sense of it all. Know that you’re not alone and that the first step in helping yourself is recognizing your problems and seeking help. If you are at that point, I can help you. I offer you a safe space where you can share, explore and revisit difficult moments in your life so that you can finally tackle your problems head on.

I work with people who struggle with binge eating, emotional eating, yo-yo dieting, body image issues, and weight management. Together, we’ll identify what’s contributed to your problematic relationship with food, explore ways of expressing, processing and coping with those issues, and help you recreate a deeper, more fulfilling relationship with yourself, your body and food. You will also learn to cope with the challenges of life without needing to rely on food. You can break free from the destructive cycle of dieting and emotional eating!

Whether it's a new baby, the loss of a loved one, a betrayal, tension in relationships, or a recent relocation... sometimes we lose our footing. You may find that your usual coping tools are no longer bringing you the same relief. Unlike blogs and books that offer one-size-fits-all advice, or unlike your friends and family who mean well, but are too emotionally-invested to give you clear guidance, I offer you effective tools, unique to your needs and situation, in a non-judgmental and safe space. I’m a bilingual (English & French) somatic psychotherapist and Marriage and Family Therapist licensed in Quebec, Colorado and California.

I completed my clinical training at Université de Montréal. I also received specialized training in sex and couples therapy at the Allan Memorial Clinic. Presently, I am a member of the Order of Psychologists of Quebec. Throughout those years of training up until today, I have gained extensive experience in treating individuals and couples with sexual and relational difficulties, personality issues, as well as problems with anxiety, depression, self-esteem and self-identity. I have studied cognitive behavioural, dialectical, humanistic, mindfulness, and acceptance and commitment therapy, all of which are described on my website.

I also speak French. Children, youth, adults, elders.. if there’s a need to address issues or find solutions to problems, we can do it one day at the time. according to your own pace and needs. I also offer couple and family therapy.

I use an integrative approach in psychotherapy, combining the principles of the psychodynamic current, centered on the understanding of which antecedent experiences and influences affect our present feelings and our relationships with others, and a humanist approach, encouraging each person to draw on their resources and creativity. It feels important for me to respect the rhythm and needs of each person and to provide a caring space.

Life has lost its focus and feels heavy with the many pressures that face you. It might be difficult to function at work or in your personal life. There are things that trouble you, including aspects of your past. You want to feel better, but might need some help. In therapy, you get to explore your situation, your emotions, and your hopes for the future in a way that helps you to grow in wisdom, authenticity, resilience, compassion and joy. Therapy is the YOU time; it's where you can be heard and seen in order to safely navigate this difficult journey with the help of a skilled therapist.

I work with an integrative approach which combines the psychodynamic, humanistic and cognitive behavioural approaches. Further, I am increasingly inspired by the most recent discoveries in developmental neuroscience. My method consists of working interactively with clients so as to encourage a dialogue with them which allows for a meeting of their cognitive and emotional experience as well as their unique behaviour and values, while ensuring that this dialogue makes sense for them.
