Lou Chamko-Vaidie M.A.(c)
Sexologist psychotherapist Intern
Holding a Bachelor’s degree in Sexology, I am currently pursuing a clinical Master’s degree in Sexology. My practice is grounded in an understanding of clients’ subjective experiences and in exploring the various factors that may influence sexual and relational difficulties. I aim to support individual well-being by implementing strategies that promote the restoration or maintenance of sexual health through cognitive-behavioral and systemic approaches.
My internship experiences with adolescents and adults have allowed me to develop sensitivity to a wide range of issues and challenges. I am particularly interested in life transitions that may impact sexual life, such as the arrival of a child, menopause, separation, and others. I can also support you in exploring questions related to sexual orientation as well as relational or sexual concerns, including diverse erotic expressions and non-monogamous relationship configurations.
More specifically, in the context of couples therapy, I guide partners in exploring their challenges while supporting each individual’s self-assertion within a respectful and compassionate framework. Partners’ needs and desires can be explored in order to achieve the balance they are seeking.
I am committed to offering a safe, open, and collaborative space where self-expression is encouraged. By adopting a nonjudgmental approach, I take into account each person’s unique lived experience, highlighting their strengths and resources in order to foster personal growth and fulfillment.
