Rebecca Nemiroff Ph.D.

I am a psychologist providing English-language services to adults, adolescents, children and families in Gatineau, Quebec (Hull sector). I have been working with the Centre for Treatment since 2009, and have been an Associate of the Centre since 2010. I work with a variety of issues including post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) and other trauma-related difficulties, childhood maltreatment, depression, anxiety, grief, relationship difficulties, and parenting challenges.
I take an integrative approach to psychotherapy, combining elements of cognitive-behavioural, interpersonal, and experiential treatment strategies. To me, this means working with people to help them learn new approaches to problems in living, to deal with difficult emotions, and to form healthy and meaningful relationships with other people. I strongly believe in taking a collaborative approach to therapy, working in partnership with clients to empower them to work toward their own healing and mental health. I strive to establish a genuine and empathic relationship with clients, and believe healing can only take place in an environment of trust and safety. I enjoy working with people of different backgrounds, and feel it is important to view and respect each person as a unique individual. It is important to me to bring a strong commitment to social justice to my work and to my life.
