Karine Poirier

 

​

I am a counselling intern completing my Master of Education (M.Ed) with concentration in counselling psychology at the University of Ottawa.

​

I believe that the human heart has great healing properties and that being heard can bring us comfort in difficult situations.

 

My approach is client-centered and supports clients in their personal growth, self-understanding, self-esteem and self-awareness in order to create meaningful and healing change.

​

My past work experiences and academic learning have fostered in me a great interest in neurodevelopmental and childhood disorders such as attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). I also have experience working with clients struggling with anxiety, depression and disabilities (mental and physical) and I look forward to continuing to build my skills and knowledge in these areas.

​

I welcome the experiences my clients bring to therapy and my goal is to provide a non-judgmental and empathetic space and nurturing therapeutic connection.

​

I am bilingual and offer services in English and French.
