Janique Johnson-Lafleur received her PhD in transcultural psychiatry from 成人VR视频 and did her postdoctoral and undergraduate training in anthropology at 成人VR视频, and at Universit茅 de Montr茅al and Universit茅 Laval, respectively. She holds a researcher position at Sherpa University Institute, CIUSSS West-Montreal, a community-based research center dedicated to the study of primary healthcare and social services in intercultural contexts.
Her research program focuses on the perception and lived experiences of the different actors involved in the field of mental health and social services in Quebec, and on the practitioners鈥� needs in terms of intercultural resources and training. She is also interested in art-based methods and the role of images and imagistic ways of knowing in transformative practices 鈥� both in clinical interventions and training initiatives. Her current work also investigates communities of practice as a training modality, the prevention of violent radicalization in socially polarized times, and Indigenous mental health and wellness. Her work relies on qualitative and mixed methods research designs and is inspired by participatory research principles and intersectional, anti-oppressive and decolonial approaches.
Dr. Johnson-Lafleur is available for research supervision of students in the fields of social science, psychology, social work, psychiatry, and public health.
