Pronouns: she/her
Clinical sexology intern
Having a bachelor's degree as well as a master's degree in psychology (University of Montreal; London South Bank University), Nadine is currently a trainee in the master's degree in clinical sexology at the Université du Québec iàn Montréal. She offers services in psychodynamic and humanist-existential approaches, for which she applies concepts creatively to fit the challenges of her clients.
​
With over six years of experience in community intervention, Nadine has worked
mainly in sexual and relational violence, as well as with 2SLGBTQIAP+ people and people who belong to diverse cultural and religious affiliations.
​
Being part of cultural and religious diversity herself, Nadine is sensitive to intersections and challenges that marginalized groups are facing, a sensitivity that has developed all the more throughout her academic and professional career. Consequently, she works to apply feminist, intersectional, inclusive and anti-oppressive values to her therapeutic approach. Her work is guided by the subjectivity of her clients and by developing an authentic, collaborative, respectful and empathetic alliance.
​
Beyond sexual and relational violence, as well as the specific challenges of sexual and gender diversity, her interests include the diversity of eroticisms, non-monogamous relational configurations, sex work, sexual dysfunctions and mental health issues (e.g., self-esteem, anxiety, depression and personality disorder).
