Contact Lucie Robichaud, B.A. sexologist

Sexologists who work in helping relationships offer services focused on the present moment. On the other hand, psychotherapy makes it possible to treat and promote significant changes within the person. For more information, take a look at our article on this subject.

 It is difficult to predict the duration of a sexology process. Depending on your needs, your motivation and the frequency of meetings, it may take a few months or even more than a year before your objectives are achieved. However, keep in mind that you are participating voluntarily in your process. So, if you need a break or a stop, all you have to do is let your sexologist know! 

It depends on your insurer. Unfortunately, many do not yet recognize the field of practice of sexology. You can contact your insurance company before starting monitoring.

However, it is always possible to adjust the frequency of meetings in order to respect your budget. Also, you can keep the receipts for taxe purposes.

Various research studies have demonstrated that counselling and psychotherapy services provided online are as effective as those offered in person. They may even be beneficial for some people. For example, they can allow schedule flexibility or accessibility of services. However, teleconsultation has certain limits (e.g. need to have a space that ensures confidentiality, possible interruptions, technological difficulties, complications of certain intervention techniques, etc.).

R-Sexologique only offers online consultation services. If this does not suit your needs, you can refer to the list of registered sexologists of the Professional Order of Sexologists of Quebec.
