Insight is a means, not an end.

Psychotherapy for people who feel deeply, and sometimes find their emotions or relationships harder to navigate than they'd like. The work is moving from insight to change, which means not just understanding your patterns but learning to shift them.

The approach

How we work matters as much as what we talk about.

My work is curious, relational, and grounded in research, and it leans on process. I pay attention to how things unfold between us, because the patterns that show up in the room are usually the ones that show up everywhere else.

I won't sit behind a blank screen. When it's useful, I'll be honest with you, offering considered reflections and sometimes telling you how something you do lands with me. Understanding is the start; the work is turning it into how you act and relate. I draw on CBT, DBT, EFT, ACT, and psychodynamic therapy, integrated in service of you, not the model.

Areas of focus

The patterns that keep repeating.

Emotional overwhelm

When feelings run bigger or faster than you want them to, and you react in ways you later wish you hadn't.

Relationship difficulties

The frustrations, conflicts, and distances that keep showing up across the relationships that matter most to you.

From insight to change

You already understand a lot about yourself. The work is using that understanding to actually shift what you do.

Also, a specialized focus

Hormonal health, woven into the therapy.

Alongside my core work, I hold specialized training in hormonal health (HAAP, FAMM) and work with women navigating hypothalamic amenorrhea, PCOS, PMS/PMDD, and fertility challenges, each of which can quietly undermine emotional wellbeing. By integrating cycle charting into psychotherapy, we can address both the psychological and physiological drivers of how you feel.

Eating disorders

Eating disorder treatment in Montréal.

I specialize in the treatment of eating disorders, including anorexia, bulimia, and binge eating, in collaboration with Clinique BACA. The work pairs evidence-based therapy with steady, measured progress, in a setting where it feels safe to be honest about food, body, and the feelings underneath them.

How we work together

A clear path, from first note to lasting change.

About
Dr. Meg Knoll, registered psychologist

I'm a psychologist in private practice in Montréal, and part of the team at Bridge Mental Health & Therapy Services, an evidence-based, trauma-informed practice whose values closely mirror my own.

I hold a Ph.D. in counselling psychology and have a background in epidemiology. My doctoral research focused on how to move research into practice. This training shows up in how I work: curious and relational, grounded in research, and skeptical of overclaiming, and as careful with the evidence as I am with your story.

My core work is with adults navigating complex emotional and relational patterns. Alongside it, I hold specialized training in hormonal health, so that side of life has a place in the room too when it matters. I also specialize in the treatment of eating disorders, in collaboration with Clinique BACA.
