Individual Therapy in Ottawa & Westboro
Virtually Across Ontario

Individual therapy is a safe, confidential space where you work one-on-one with a registered psychotherapist to explore your thoughts, feelings, and challenges. Our registered psychotherapists in Westboro offer evidence-based therapy tailored to your unique needs, in-person or virtually across Ontario.

WHO IS INDIVIDUAL THERAPY FOR?

Our clients come to therapy for many reasons:

  • Anxiety & Panic Attacks – Racing thoughts, constant worry, social anxiety, or physical symptoms of stress 
  • Depression & Low Mood – Feeling stuck, unmotivated, hopeless, or disconnected from things you used to enjoy 
  • Relationship Challenges – Communication problems, boundary issues, codependency, or navigating breakups 
  • Life Transitions – Career changes, moving, becoming a parent, empty nest, divorce, or identity shifts 
  • Trauma & PTSD – Childhood trauma, difficult experiences, flashbacks, or feeling unsafe in your own body 
  • Burnout & Work Stress – Feeling overwhelmed, exhausted, or losing yourself in your professional role 

You don’t have to fit a specific “profile” to benefit from therapy. If something feels off, therapy can help you figure out what it is and what to do about it.

WHAT TO EXPECT IN INDIVIDUAL THERAPY?

YOUR FIRST SESSION 

We start with a free 15-minute consultation to see if we’re the right fit. No pressure, no commitment, just a conversation about what you’re looking for and how we might help. If you decide to move forward, your first full session focuses on understanding your story. We’ll talk about what brought you to therapy, what you’re hoping to change, and what success looks like for you. 

ONGOING SESSIONS 

Most clients meet weekly or biweekly for 50-minute sessions. Some prefer in-person sessions at our Westboro office; others choose virtual therapy for convenience. You lead the conversation. We’re here to listen, ask the right questions, help you see patterns you might be missing, and give you practical tools that actually work. Therapy isn’t about being “fixed”, it’s about building the skills to navigate life’s challenges with more clarity and confidence.

WHY CHOOSE THERAPY WITH EMPATHY?

NO OVER-EXPLAINING REQUIRED 

Our diverse, bilingual team means you can find someone who understands your cultural experience, identity, and unique challenges without needing lengthy explanations. Therapy works best when you feel truly seen. 

REGISTERED PSYCHOTHERAPISTS 

All our therapists are registered with the College of Registered Psychotherapists of Ontario (CRPO), ensuring you receive professional, ethical, evidence-based care.

ADHD

ADHD is more than just trouble focusing. It can make it hard to manage your time, handle your feelings, stay organized, and finish daily tasks.

WHAT IT LOOKS LIKE:

You might lose track of time or put things off, even when you care about them.

You may start lots of projects but not finish them.

Simple tasks can feel overwhelming, and it might feel like you’re always trying to catch up or forget important things.

Your feelings can change quickly or feel very strong. You might get frustrated easily, feel extra sensitive to criticism, or feel hurt by rejection.

Many people with ADHD feel like they have to work much harder than others just to keep up, which can make them very tired or doubt themselves.

HOW THERAPY HELPS:

Therapy can help you find ways that work for your brain. You’ll learn easy tricks for getting organized, managing your time, and handling big feelings.

Therapy can also help you feel better about yourself, even if you’ve felt “behind” or not good enough for a long time.
