I hold two degrees from Concordia University including a Masters in Art Therapy. I am a graduate of a Post-Masters
Program at the Argyle Institute of Human Relations, specializing in
Marital and Family Therapy, am an approved clinical member of the
OPTSQ (L'Ordre Proffessionel des Travailleurs Sociaux du Quebec), a clinical member of the
QAMFT (Quebec Association for Marital and Family Therapy), the AAMFT
(American Association for Marital and Family Therapy), as well as
a certified member of the A.A.T.Q.(Association des Art-Thérapeutes
du Québec). I have been in private practice for many years
and carry full professional liability insurance. I have worked in
the fields of Child and Adult Psychiatry, Addictions, Oncology, and
Sexual Assault. I am a columnist for various Montreal publications
such as the Cedar
Park Play Group and the Rising
Tao newsletters and am a regular contributor as a relationship
expert for the magazine Boomers.
In addition to individual and couple therapy, I work with children and
adolescents who have problems with peer relations, anger management,
childhood depression, anxiety, difficulties in school, self-esteem
issues, attention-deficit disorders, and regressive behaviour. Psychotherapy
is most effective when the parents are involved for it helps the child
feel understood and accepted. It also enables parents to learn practical
strategies for managing problematic behaviours at home.
In addition to working with parents, I often coordinate with schoolteachers
and counsellors to increase their understanding of the child’s
emotional needs and to help resolve any behavioural difficulties he
or she is having at school.
