Bio: Hello there! I’m Kat. I’m a Haitian , queer, therapist based in Tio’tia:ke (Montreal). I am a Canadian certified ccounsellor and member of the Canadian Counselling and Psychotherapy Associtation. I am also a trained creative arts therapist and somatic practitioner. My approach to therapy is essentially somatic, trauma-informed, person-centered and anchored in the assumptions of liberation psychology, anti-oppression & response-based practice. Together, we can work towards your goals and support you in remembering and reconnecting to your own inherent resiliency or sacred resources for navigating life’s many challenges. I can support you by being a skilled companion on your journey, a compassionate reflector of your strengths, and someone who can hold onto the possibilities of hope and love, when this feels too hard to on your own. I am committed to a decolonized or re-indigenized view of health. Instead of viewing behavior and symptoms through the lens of pathology, I ask: How has your nervous system been responding to the world around it, and why? How can we work together to hold both compassion and curiosity around your experiences, while moving closer to your authentic desires? I am currently open to new clients and I am prioritizing medium to long-term therapeutic work that occurs weekly or biweekly. I find this kind of work to be most impactful for the people I work with. I offer sessions in English & French. You may email me to book a free 20-min consulation call before booking a session. Normal rate: 150$ per session. Low-cost option available based on capacity.
