Acceptance and Commitment (ACT) Therapists in Ottawa, ON

I am personable, approachable, and flexible, and I will work with you to establish your goals for therapy, and help to process the issues that come up for you. My approach is seated in a place of curiosity and empathy, and I see myself as your advocate. I sometimes use humour during our sessions to reduce stress, and provide relatable examples so that you can integrate therapeutic skills into your life. I use evidence-based therapeutic approaches like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy ( ACT ), and Mindfulness.

We would take whatever you're coming in with and work together to provide insight, reflection and overall confidence in your self-improvement journey.
