Hi, I’m AMANDA ARCIERO.

I am a licensed psychoeducator, specializing in child development, behavior, and adjustment difficulties. I am a certified special care counselor from Vanier College and hold a bachelor’s degree in psychology, a graduate diploma in Youth Work from Concordia University; and am a member in good standing with the Ordre des psychoéducateurs et psychoéducatrices du Québec (OPPQ). For the past 10 years, I have experience working front line in child psychiatry, working from a systemic lens to support individuals to better understand and cope with their challenges. I use a warm, collaborative, strength-based approach to explore and better understand the unique experiences of my clients, while tailoring practices to individual needs.

My Approach

It is my view that forging a trust- and teamwork-centred relationship is crucial when working with an individual with an adjustment problem. Combining the experience of parents, teachers and others with my professional expertise is a formula that promotes the individual’s optimal development.
