Jean-Laurent Domingue

Jean-Laurent Domingue is a registered nurse with a clinical specialty in forensic psychiatry and mental health nursing. His research focuses on the political dimensions of nursing care, with emphasis on the governance of marginalized individuals for purposes of public health and public safety. Jean-Laurent grounds his work in critical theory and uses qualitative methodology to understand how nurses interact with hegemonic structures that maintain systemic injustice.

Jean-Laurent has conducted several studies in partnership with colleagues, graduate students, clinical collaborators and persons with lived experience including:

• Exploring mental health nurses’ experiences of associative stigma when accessing physical health services for their patients
• Critical discourse analysis of reasons for the state of mind of persons found not criminally responsible on account of mental disorder for non-violent crimes
• A qualitative comparative study of family experiences with the forensic psychiatric system in Quebec and Ontario

Professor Domingue is accepting master’s and PhD students for thesis supervision, in French and English.
