About me

Taking the first step into therapy can be challenging, and it’s okay to feel uncertain about it. I’m here to help you navigate this journey with support, empathy, and without judgment. My name is Amandine, and I’m a registered psychotherapist (qualifying) with the College of Registered Psychotherapists of Ontario (CRPO). As someone with multiple intersecting identities, I understand how complicated it can be to navigate spaces where you might feel overlooked or misunderstood. That’s why I’m passionate about offering a space where you can feel truly heard, respected, and supported for who you are. Whether you’re facing relationship struggles, navigating life transitions, or just need a space to process your experiences and emotions, I’m here to walk alongside you. I work from an anti-oppressive, anti-racist, and socially just perspective, always honouring your unique identity and lived experiences. Therapy isn’t one-size-fits-all, so I draw from a variety of approaches to meet your individual needs, including Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Cognitive-Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Solution-Focused Therapy, Psychodynamic Therapy, Somatic Practices, and Mindfulness techniques. You deserve a space to reflect, heal, and grow at your own pace, and I’m here to support you every step of the way. If you’re ready to take the next step, I offer a free 15-minute consultation so we can chat about your needs and see if we would be a good fit.
