Psychoanalytic Therapist | Author | Digital Innovator
Exploring the depths of human psychology through clinical practice, literature, and technology
Schedule ConsultationI am a psychologist practicing psychotherapy in Montreal, with a primary focus on psychodynamic and psychoanalytic approaches. These methodologies are grounded in understanding the unconscious processes that shape how we interact with ourselves and others. Through the therapeutic relationship, meaningful psychological change becomes possible.
I completed my doctorate in clinical psychology at Université de Sherbrooke, where I trained in three major psychological approaches: psychodynamic, cognitive-behavioral, and humanistic-existential. During my studies, I worked with diverse clientele including young adults, individuals experiencing intimate partner violence, and couples seeking relationship therapy.
With 8+ years of advanced study in psychology, I hold a doctorate in clinical psychology. Following my doctoral studies, I specialized in couple's therapy through intensive training in Integrative Couple Intervention (ICI), developed by Dr. André Surprenant, under his direct supervision.
I maintain current knowledge through continuous professional development and regular consultation with senior practitioners. My approach integrates modern therapeutic techniques with classical psychoanalytic theory.
Understanding the therapeutic approach
Explores unconscious processes that motivate and shape our relationships with others and ourselves. This evidence-based approach helps identify patterns and create meaningful change.
Specialized in Integrative Couple Intervention (ICI), helping couples navigate relationship challenges through deep understanding of dyadic patterns and unconscious dynamics.
Working with adults experiencing anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship difficulties, and personal development goals through psychoanalytic exploration.
Grounded in classical and contemporary psychoanalytic thought, integrating insights from leading theorists to provide depth and effectiveness in clinical work.
Psychoanalytic therapy operates on the principle that our unconscious mind significantly influences our thoughts, behaviors, and relationships. By bringing unconscious material to awareness, we can transform our lives.
The relationship between therapist and client is the primary vehicle for change. Through exploring transference and countertransference, clients gain insight into their relational patterns.
Unlike symptom-focused approaches, psychoanalytic work aims for deep insight and psychological integration. Change emerges organically from increased self-awareness.
While individual issues may resolve, many clients continue therapy for personal development, seeking deeper self-understanding and psychological maturity.
