Nicole Marek
Psychologist, Psychologist/Psychotherapist, OPQ
Post-pandemic life is certainly a new normal. I notice many people are having trouble adjusting to the changes, and cannot quite return to the life they used to know. Whatever your reason for seeking therapy, I am happy to help you connect to your self, improve your functioning, determine your next moves, and move past any fears or insecurities that are holding you back. I specialize in LGBTQ+ populations, trauma recovery, improving attachment issues, and overcoming depression and anxiety. My preferred modalities are EFT, CBT, ACT, IFS, and SE.

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.

Saguenay is a regional city in Quebec's Saguenay–Lac-Saint-Jean region, set among dramatic fjord landscapes in a part of the province that is culturally distinct, strongly francophone, and economically anchored by aluminum production and the forestry industry. Geographic isolation, cold and dark winters, and the economic pressures of a resource-dependent region contribute to elevated rates of depression and seasonal affective disorder, and mental health services are delivered almost entirely in French through the CIUSSS du Saguenay–Lac-Saint-Jean. The University of Quebec at Chicoutimi (UQAC) has a psychology department that contributes trained professionals to the regional mental health workforce, and both public and private services are available in the city. Common therapy concerns include depression, anxiety, relationship and family stress, and the particular challenges of rural and regional life in a community where access to specialist care may require significant travel or telehealth.
