Couples Counselling Therapists in Ottawa, ON

I offer therapeutic services to young people, adults and couples as they navigate through their challenges. My primary focus is to support in overcoming negative patterns which have impacted their lives and relationships. In working with individuals, I offer a combination of modalities such Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, Solution-Focussed Therapy, EMDR and general talk therapy.

I originate from a Northern Ontario community but have been happily settled in the Ottawa area for over 20 years. I am a bilingual (fluent in French and English), Social Worker and it has been my great pleasure to work in the field of mental health social work with Children, Youth and Adults since 2006. I believe that everyone runs into challenges in their life that they shouldn't be expected to resolve alone and I am happy to be there to guide them on their road to recovery. Lets work together to re-establish fulfillment in your life.

To me, therapy is a warm, comfortable space we build together; it’s an hour outside of your everyday life, a shared place we can process whatever needs to be processed from the safety of. Care, compassion, non-judgement and a genuine therapeutic relationship are the foundations of our work together and are my main priorities. My focus is always holistic: we have to look at every layer - from the cues your body and nervous system are giving you to the societal messages surrounding you - to reach not just the bandaids but the deeper roots of distress and, ultimately, growth.

TIPES counsellors are working hard to bridge the gap between behavioural and mental health services, and are working from a multi-disciplinary approach with our clients. Our team of social workers has extensive experience working with autistic, neurodiverse individuals, and their families, as well as working on issues related to depression, anxiety, mood, social isolation, sexual and gender identity and more. Many of our clients require support related to goal setting and building skills around executive functioning and motivation. We offer parent and couples counselling . Clients can also be seen by our Supervising Psychologist.

Life can be overwhelming, but you don't have to go through it alone. Healing is a journey. As your therapist, I'm here to walk alongside you every step of the way. Let's build resilience together, cultivate self-compassion, and find greater peace and fulfillment in life. I'm committed to providing a safe, supportive space where you can explore your thoughts, feelings, and experiences. Therapy is not just about fixing problems, it's about fostering personal growth and self-discovery. Whether you're struggling with a specific issue or simply seeking greater insight. Together, we can work towards greater emotional health and wellbeing.

I bring a diverse background of counselling experience, professional training, and a focus on positive outcomes for my clients. As a Psychotherapist, my goal is to work with clients to overcome whatever challenges or psychological issues they may be struggling with. If you are feeling overwhelmed or anxious, I use new highly-effective strategies to help you learn to better manage anxiety and bring it down to size. You want positive changes in life, but often it is unclear how they will happen. I look forward to working with you to find the way whether in your relationships or personal path.

I help adults struggling with anxiety, depression and adaptation to life challenges and losses. My focus is on creating a warm, non-judgemental and safe environment where you can unpack your painful experiences and examine emotions, thoughts and behaviours that might contribute to your suffering and isolation. My goal in psychotherapy is to help you to find balance and wholeness by accepting and incorporating all authentic parts of yourself, including shadows. A painful experience is an opportunity to wake up from familiar negative patterns and change them once and for all.

We are all capable of growth. Is it time to uncover your deeper self and goals within an authentic, non-judgemental therapeutic relationship ? Our sacred capacity evolves through the practice of self-compassion. It fosters our natural ability to make desired changes in our life. Together, let's uncover your unique values and strengths to work through life's challenging experiences. I've been there too! As Carl Rogers says "Life is about being and becoming". To me, this represents our ability to work with our past, current and future self. Acknowledging and witnessing your own story creates a deeper self-awareness.

We all face challenges at different phases in our lives. Perhaps you are feeling stuck and having difficulty finding direction or making a life decision. You may have experienced a loss and need some help to work through the grief. Or you may be struggling with symptoms of stress, anxiety or depression. Sometimes the struggle is related to relationship issues or parenting difficulties.

Currently Accepting New Clients! I want more for you than managing your anxiety, overcoming grief, or lifting yourself out of depression. I want your life to be bursting with joy. I want you to feel that you are contributing to make this world a better place. I want you to know the joys of an intimate relationship , and either find someone, or encourage the one you are with, to grow along with you and build a better life together. I want you to feel confident and know your values and be able to stand for them against the world.

CURRENTLY ACCEPTING NEW CLIENTS. I rely on a collaborative approach and pride myself on providing clients with the necessary tools to restore, foster and enhance their resilience and ability to problem-solve. I work with adults, youth, children, families, couples and LGBTQ community members with a variety of concerns. Please visit my website at www.ahappieryou.ca for more information
