Meet Our Ottawa Psychotherapists & Mental Health Team
Specialized care for your unique needs. Our team brings deep expertise in relationships, anxiety, trauma, parenting, and ADHD. Find the right therapist for you.
At Therapy with Empathy, we believe in specialized care. Rather than one-size-fits-all therapy, our growing team brings focused expertise in specific areas – from couples therapy and relationship counseling in Ottawa to trauma recovery, anxiety treatment, parenting support, and ADHD. All our therapists offer bilingual services (English and French) with both in-person appointments at our Westboro office and virtual therapy across Ontario.
