Mathilde Garneau
Research CoordinatorÌý
Mathilde Garneau is an assistant professor in psychoeducation at the Université de Sherbrooke. She grew up in Roberval, on the shores of the Pekuakami (Lac Saint-Jean), having contacts and being friends with Ilnu people. Non-Indigenous herself, she has always been interested in Indigenous cultures and realities, especially since an internship in psychoeducation in an Innu school in Unamen Shipu in 2011-2012. Since then, she has been involved in diverse research projects concerning the mental health and substance use of Indigenous youth, in the fields of clinical assessment, prevention and intervention. Those projects, including her own PhD thesis, concern best practices and the adaptation and/or validation of intervention programs and assessment tools among Indigenous youth and families. Concurrently, she has been involved for several years as a psychosocial intervener in a community family centre, named Famille Espoir, in Sherbrooke, with families from diverse cultural backgrounds. Her involvement continues to date as a member of their administrative council. She also teaches measurement and assessment in psychoeducation, among other classes, at Université de Sherbrooke.
