Catherine Bernard is a clinical psychologist who holds a Doctorate in Psychology (D.Psy) from Université Laval. She has been a member of the Ordre des psychologues du Québec (OPQ) since 2022.

She specializes in working with adults and adolescents presenting with eating disorders or other difficulties related to weight, eating behaviors, or body image. Throughout her doctoral training, she also developed expertise with clients experiencing relational difficulties, personality disorders, as well as depressive and anxiety symptoms, in both individual and group therapy settings.
