Check out Montreal Psychology Monthly Pick for July! Therapist and PhD Candidate Kayla Hollett's Pick introduces us to awesome ACT resources from Dr Jessica Borushok's YouTube channel The ACT Therapist :

"Dr. Jessica Borushok is a clinical psychologist who specializes in Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT). Her YouTube Channel has several educational videos that help explain the main themes of ACT, from cognitive defusion to value-based action. She also has shared several other videos with insights for coping with common mental health problems (e.g., panic attacks).

Two videos I have enjoyed in particular are "What is Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT Explained)" and "How to Practice Acceptance: ACT Core Process". In the first video, Dr. Borushok provides a clear summary of what ACT is, which can be a helpful starting point for anyone who may be interested in this type of therapy. In the latter video, she offers an overview of what acceptance is and provides examples, which can be helpful for those learning to integrate acceptance into their daily life."

Hi, I'm Dr. Jessica. This channel provides accurate, helpful, and easy-to-understand educational videos about common mental health concerns and questions. Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/theacttherapist TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/ WORK WITH ME If you're an adult living in Ca...

Connecte Montreal Psychology therapist and PhD Candidate, Sara Matovic's When Guilt Leads Us to Abandon Ourselves is a beautiful and in-depth reflection on the complex nature of guilt and the ways we respond to it (hint: guilt is inherently not a "bad" thing!); the difference between healthy and unhealthy responses to feelings of guilt, and how we can repair and heal from chronic self-abandonment that may stem from those unhealthy responses over time🌱💚

Have you ever found yourself apologizing for simply needing something, even before you ask for it? Or saying yes when you want to say no? For many, guilt can drive us to abandon our own needs to preserve connection, avoid conflict, or maintain the image of being "good." a pattern that can leave us f...

Check out our Monthly Pick from Connecte Montreal Psychology clinical psychologist Dr Stephanie Gallant! Stephanie's Pick invites us to dive into a good book, and check out a story that has people saying... < j’ai ri, j’ai pleuré, je me suis reconnue, j’ai été inspirée > :

"I’m excited to recommend La grosse qui rêvait d’amour by Nadia Tranchemontagne, a newly published novel loosely inspired by the author’s experiences. This poignant story offers a rare, authentic portrayal of navigating the world in a fat body—an experience often misrepresented and ridiculed in the media. For some, it’s a validating reflection; for others, an essential window into the realities of fatphobia and its social and psychological toll. Whether you seek representation or a deeper understanding of our cultural biases, this book is a vital, eye-opening read.
