About Me

I provide bilingual (French/English) psychological services to adults and older adults who are experiencing a variety of challenges including: sleep disorders, chronic insomnia, anxiety, depression, traumatic stress-related issues & PTSD, grief & significant losses, life transitions as well as adjusting to living with major life changes (including injury and illness). I also have a particular interest in working with individuals who are experiencing difficulty adjusting to living with a chronic health condition, including cardiac illness, chronic pain, inflammatory bowel disease, and men’s health issues.

I am collaborative in my approach with clients and create a structured process in which we explore ways of thinking, behaviors, and feelings in a non-judgemental atmosphere. I also help clients identify patterns of behaviors and ways of thinking that may have been helpful at one point in time but that may not be useful anymore. Depending on the nature of the presenting issues, I also favor prioritizing the use of interventions or treatments that are informed by the scientific literature in psychology.

I have accumulated a wide range of clinical experience working is various settings (university, hospital, primary care medical clinic) and have been actively involved in teaching, research, and training of doctoral candidates in clinical psychology for 25 years.
