Biography

C’est avec intérêt que je vous transmets ma biographie afin de faire partie du répertoire en santé mentale FRDJ. Je suis retraitée du réseau de la santé et des services sociaux et depuis 2019, je suis consultante indépendante pour une clientèle qui bénéficie des services d’un programme d’aide aux employés (PAE). Actuellement, je travaille majoritairement auprès des adultes qui nécessitent un soutien professionnel afin de les aider à retrouver un bien-être personnel. Depuis 2019, mes formations de perfectionnement sont principalement axées sur une l’approche cognitivo-comportementale et l’entretien motivationnel. Comme agent d’influence, je privilégie une approche qui se veut collaborative et centrée sur les solutions.

Possédant une solide compétence clinique en intervention psychosociale, je crois que l’ensemble de mes expériences et de mes connaissances serait un atout important pour cette clientèle. De plus, j’ai été diagnostiquée hypoglycémique par un endocrinologue il y a de cela trente ans et j’agis comme proche aidante depuis environ dix ans pour deux personnes de mon entourage vivant avec le diabète. Je comprends les enjeux et défis qui s’y rattachent.

Your decision to engage a mental health provider is personal to you and you are responsible for verifying whether any mental health provider you choose to contact has the qualifications and experience that are appropriate for your situation.  You should seek advice from your primary care provider if you require assistance determining which mental health provider is right for you.  None of the Breakthrough T1D Parties are a party to any doctor-patient or therapist-patient relationship that may be established if you contact a mental health provider through the Directory.  None of the Breakthrough T1D Parties are responsible or liable for any health services provided by a mental health provider listed in the Directory or any other aspect of your interaction with a mental health provider listed in the Directory.
