Research information:

Ph.D. in psychology, research and intervention option. My field of specialization is community psychology. As such, I have been interested in interventions aimed at social change to enhance people's well-being in their daily environment. My thesis examined the social representation held by women's movement groups in Québec.

In order to contribute to women's empowerment, I am now researching interventions to facilitate the exit process from prostitution. These interventions are rare; thus, the aim of this research is to contribute to their development.
