Anne Geraldine Barnes
Registered Social Worker, Travailleuse Sociale/RSW Qc Mindful Self-Compassion, PNL, polyvagal informed/outils somatiques
(ENGLISH BELOW) Je suis convaincue que le meilleur levier pour le bien-être d’un ado est une mère qui se sent en sécurité et outillée. Trop souvent, on s’épuise à essayer de contrôler l’incontrôlable. Je le sais, je l’ai vécu. Ma mission est de normaliser vos réactions : ce n’est pas un manque de volonté, c’est votre système nerveux qui réagit au stress. Formée à l’approche polyvagale, je vous offre un espace pour calmer cette réponse de "survie" et retrouver votre clarté. En stabilisant votre propre boussole, vous ne faites pas que traverser l'adolescence : vous transformez durablement la dynamique familiale.
ENGLISH: I believe the most powerful tool for a teen’s well-being is a mother who feels grounded and safe. Too often, we exhaust ourselves trying to control the uncontrollable—I understand, I’ve been there. My mission is to normalize your experience: your reactive moments aren't a failure, they are your nervous system responding to stress. As a Polyvagal-informed Social Worker, I provide a space to soothe that 'survival mode' and regain your clarity. By stabilizing your internal compass, you don’t just survive the teen years—you transform the entire family dynamic from the inside out.

Dr. Ashwin Mehra
Psychologist, PhD, CPsych
Growth and healing are choices we can make. If you are reading this, you have already taken an important first step. You may be wondering whether therapy can help you take the next ones. Those steps might lead toward relief from distress, clearer direction, healthier relationships, better emotional regulation, insight into long-standing patterns, healing from the past, or movement toward meaningful personal goals. Each person begins therapy with unique hopes and expectations. My role is to support you in moving toward what matters most to you.
I offer an integrative, individualized approach to therapy rather than a one-size-fits-all model. I earned my PhD in Clinical Psychology from St. John’s University in New York City through an integrative program that emphasized both depth and breadth of training. My clinical experience in New York and Toronto has provided me with extensive exposure to diverse populations and a wide range of psychological concerns. I work across the lifespan from children, adolescents, adults, to seniors and provide individual, couples, family, group, and parenting therapy, depending on what best fits a client’s needs. I have also conducted comprehensive psychological assessments evaluating cognitive functioning, personality structure, learning disabilities, and emotional or behavioral concerns. This breadth of experience allows me to approach each case with nuance, balance, and clinical depth. Please call for a free consultation!

Dr. Stéphanie Gamache, PhD
Hypnotherapist, PhD
Something in you knows that what you're carrying runs deeper than the presenting problem.
Many of the people I work with are thoughtful, capable, and outwardly composed-yet internally they live with anxiety, depression, chronic tension or pain, relentless self-criticism, or a sense that something essential is blocked, muted, or just out of reach. These struggles may surface in mood, in the body, in behavior, or in relationships-including sexuality and intimacy-but they are rarely contained to any one area. They tend to reflect deeper emotional and relational patterns formed early in life, often before language, that continue to shape how a person approaches closeness, vulnerability, agency, pleasure, and self-expression.
My work centers on how early experience shapes the capacity for self-regulation, desire, connection, and meaning throughout life-and particularly on how people come to know what they need and want, how they learn to express or inhibit those impulses, and what happens when these capacities become conflicted, constricted, or difficult to sustain.
I integrate psychoanalytic hypnotherapy, somatic awareness, and clinical sexology within a reflective, depth-oriented process. Hypnosis functions as a central clinical tool-creating conditions for deeper internal contact with emotional, bodily, and unconscious experience that can be difficult to reach through conversation alone. The aim is not only relief from symptoms, but the development of a more coherent and compassionate relationship with one's inner life: sensations, emotions, impulses, and desires.
This work is oriented toward lasting psychological change-and toward greater freedom in how one relates to oneself, one's body, and one's capacity for connection, authenticity, and vitality. It is best suited to those ready to move beyond symptom management toward something more fundamental.
