About Helene:
I am happy to be part of the True North group of clinics and therapists. I have been a psychologist for over 30 years and I continue to be grateful for the opportunity I have to do the work I do.
Experience:
I first worked with children and eventually I developed and interest in issues of attachment. I worked with children who have been neglected and/or abused and it prepared me quite well for the work that I am now doing with veterans who have a diagnosis of PTSD.
Client focus:
I am now working only with adults
Types of therapy:
At the university I attended, the focus was on the psychoanalytical theory which matched quite well the theory of attachment that I learned later on. I occasionally use elements of other approaches, namely Internal Family System (IFS).
More than work:
I want to be healthy, so I am a fan of exercise and I eat well. I like cooking; I sew and I do stained glass.
