WELCOME TO BRISQETTE!
Individual counselling for women experiencing peri-menopause and menopause
About Me
Hi! I'm Dominique Williams, a registered social worker with over 15 years of experience and I'm excited to share the story behind Brisqette counselling services.
​
In 2021, I reached the end of my breast cancer journey, but I found myself facing a new set of challenges related to peri-menopause. When I sought advice from my oncologist, I was told dismissively that "all women go through this, and it only lasts 7-10 years". This was far from the supportive response I had hoped for and it got me thinking about how many other women must feel the same way.
​
After years of researching, reflecting and navigating my own journey through tears and night sweats, Brisqette was born. Now, I'm dedicated to helping women manage peri-menopausal symptoms such as hot flashes, low mood, re-emergent eating disorders, insomnia and more using evidence-based Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT).
​
If you or someone you know is navigating these changes, I'm here to help. Let's work together to find relief and reclaim balance!​​
Services
At Brisqette, I am dedicated to providing individualized counselling services designed specifically for peri-menopausal and menopausal women (or anyone identifying as a woman). Our therapy sessions are tailored to address the unique challenges and experiences faced during this stage of life, ensuring a supportive and understanding environment for personal growth and healing. While social work services are not covered by OHIP, they may be covered under your insurance or employee plan.
