Soulful Psychiatry

A Holistic Approach To Feeling Better

Book Appointment

Hello! I’m Dr. Joan Tucker

Licensed Psychiatrist
I am a psychiatrist licensed in Ontario and Quebec, currently available to help individuals in Quebec with all aspects of mental health recovery. I am a native Montrealer, and I am building my consultative practice in Quebec, after a full career in Ontario.
With a fellowship in Child and Adolescent Psychiatry, I am able to offer a holistic approach to understanding developmental influences in one’s current mental health challenges.

My Approach

I do not embrace one single approach to understanding your unique challenges. My focus is on pursuing excellent function using medication optimization if necessary, as well as referrals to psychotherapy, coaching, mindfulness, fitness, and nutrition coaching.

My personal interest in spirituality informs my work; I remain open to making treatment recommendations that are aligned with my patients’ personal values.

I fully embrace that mental health treatment continues to evolve. I have completed my Psilocybin Prescriber Training, as a means of better understanding the role of psychedelics in future mental health care. Likewise, I am on a lifelong learning path, and my patients have been my best teachers.

I invite you to meet me virtually via the following link. Not only that, but I do offer in-person visits as well, and they can be arranged through the staff at Clinique LaCroix.

Please check back with this website as I continue to add brief capsules of information on common mental health challenges.

As a private psychiatrist, I am able to offer services virtually and in person to patients in Quebec and in the rest of Canada. However, for patients outside Quebec, where I may not be able to prescribe medication, I will provide a full treatment strategy for you to discuss with your family doctor.

Duration of A Psychiatric Consultation

A psychiatric consultation can last from 60 – 90 minutes. I do provide follow up visits for all of my patients, and will provide services until your condition has stabilized. Psychiatric conditions can evolve over time; I am available to reassess when necessary.

Medical Consultant

I continue to work as a medical consultant for two disability insurance carriers, and have provided hundreds of Independent Medical Exams, all in the service of assisting individuals to return to work and schoolafter mental health absence.
