Biography
I am a professor of philosophy at CÉGEP Édouard Montpetit and an executive council member of the Association for the Advancement of Philosophy and Psychiatry (AAPP). My research focuses on the philosophy of psychology and psychiatry, mainly on the role of values and first-person perspectives in understanding psychiatric categories. I notably work on the impact of neurodiversity on our understanding of autism, and I have also written on the role of emotions in eating disorders and on emotional awareness in autism. I am currently working on affective injustices in psychiatry and seek to analyze emotional relationality in order to better understand these injustices, so as to address and prevent them. I obtained my PhD in philosophy at UQAM and Paris-Sorbonne in 2018. I also co-founded Philo-Située, a series of conferences promoting the role of women in philosophy, as well as a Webinar in Philosophy of Psychiatry, created and co-hosted with Anne-Marie Gagné-Julien. Finally, I co-founded – along with several researchers including many members of the CRÉ – the Research Group in Ethics and Philosophy of Mental Health (POMH), which is affiliated with the Centre.
