Meet Lamarre

I specialize in helping individuals explore attachment patterns and navigate complex relationship dynamics. My approach is shaped by my lived experience as a queer child of Haitian immigrants, growing up in a low-income household and navigating blended family dynamics, depression, and anxiety. I create a warm, supportive space to work through both personal and relational challenges using a blend of psychodynamic principles and somatic awareness. Together, we’ll work to help you reconnect with yourself, others, and the world around you.
