Licensed Psychologist with the Order of Psychologists of Quebec OPQ#12827-16
My name is Erica Cervin, and I am originally from Sweden. When I came to Canada in 2015, I obtained my professional license through equivalence and started working as a psychotherapist at a private clinic.
My professional experience in Sweden consists of psychological assessment and interventions for people with work-related issues such as burnout, workplace bullying, and general problems in the work environment, but also individual concerns that could affect work stability, such as concentration problems, long-term depression, anxiety, chronic pain, trauma, and issues related to immigration and integration.
In psychotherapy, I am guided by openness and curiosity about the life story of each individual, with their unique experiences, emotions and thoughts. I aim to create a safe space for individuals in a vulnerable state experiencing depression, anxiety, and crisis. I want to help my clients understand how their past has affected their present thought and behavioral patterns, and to provide them with the tools to change what they experience as negative or dysfunctional in their lives.

Success Stories
"I began going to therapy for the very first time in summer 2018 and was matched with Erica through the Montreal Therapy Centre. Therapy was, until that time, uncharted waters for me, and as a 27-year-old man, beginning the journey was a difficult step. Erica ensured that my foray into better mental health and all-around well-being was a comfortable and productive one. She helped me develop all the therapeutic tools I required to work toward accepting myself and pursuing my growth. I often found myself arriving to conclusions on my own with Erica’s guidance, but was also met with a metaphorical eye-opening, refreshing splash of cold water to the face when needed. I always felt at ease in our sessions and that I was able to talk about whatever I wanted, whenever I wanted. I saw Erica for one year and am very satisfied the entire experience."
