Cris Bissonnette

I offer trauma-informed and patient-centered psychiatry services. My frameworks include harm reduction, acceptance therapy, mindfulness, and attachment theory. My belief is that mental and emotional wellness is a nonlinear process, often characterized by periods of stability, growth, and occasional setbacks- and I am here to support clients in whatever stage they are in with compassion and non-judgment. I don't believe medication is always warranted, but for those that it is it can be a key component of care, along with therapy and a healthy lifestyle. I view my work with clients as a collaborative effort to support their desired goals. I am trans-affirming, sex-positive, believe that intersectional feminism helps all genders and I am committed to supporting racial justice in my professional and personal life.
