Human relationships and their inner workings have always fascinated me. In fact, I used to be somewhat overwhelmed by them; I couldn't understand how so many people could interact with such apparent ease and fluidity. According to my mother, I didn't really speak until I was almost three. She even took me to the doctor to make sure everything was alright, and he said it would all "unlock" one day. When that day finally came, I apparently became a chatterbox—though as soon as I was in a group, I would quickly revert to observation mode.
I am an introvert who learned how to "extrovert." Today, I am comfortable speaking in front of a hundred people and feel like a fish in water in a crowd of thousands, yet the Hermit is never far away when it’s time to recharge.
After years as a manager in the video game, IT, education and clinical sectors, I always felt like something was missing or that I wasn't quite satisfied. It was during a Psychology and Leadership of Change course at HEC Montréal—just before a burnout and major depression—that I realized nothing was missing. Instead, there was something "extra":
the administrative tasks!
Of all the responsibilities that come with management, team organization, relationship dynamics, coaching employees and students, and sharing knowledge were always the most fulfilling parts of my work. I sought a way to focus my potential on helping others, which is how I discovered the profession of TRA®.
A therapeutic relationship is first and foremost human and deeply emotional. It is with all my sensitivity, mindful of my own relational journey and expertise, that I welcome and support you in your decision to seek a consultation.
As a TRA®, I firmly believe that you hold your own solutions. My role is to help you become aware of them, to understand yourself, and to exist in your own uniqueness. In the "here and now," with respect and without judgment, I help you regain power over your life, at your own pace.
Finally, it is important for me to mention that I provide a safe and caring environment for individuals from communities with unconventional identities, orientations, and relationship models.
Looking forward to meeting you!

if there is any reaction, both are transformed."
