Therapists in Ottawa, Ontario

You are the expert on your life—I’m here to help you navigate it. I support people in reshaping their relationships with food, body, and identity, breaking free from societal pressures to define life on their own terms. My approach is structured yet flexible—you stay in control as we create a practical action plan for real change. I’ll walk beside you every step of the way.

If you’re feeling weighed down by grief, anxiety, or relational struggles, you don’t have to face it alone. My goal is to make therapy practical, approachable, and even enjoyable when possible. I specialize in helping adults navigate these challenges using evidence-based approaches tailored to your unique needs. Together, we’ll work toward finding relief and creating the change you’ve been seeking

In our first session, I will ask you to share your story about your current struggles. We will work collaboratively to identify the core issues and what your goals are for our work together. At the core of my work is the belief in the resiliency of the human spirit; and that change can happen when we connect with each other and with our human nature.

I follow a perspective that understands trauma and culture, and I think the connection between mind and body is key to healing emotional, mental, and relationship struggles. My way of helping is all about connecting with you, working together, and creating a safe, non-judgmental space where we look to change the things that might be holding you back.

I admire the courage required to choose therapy to navigate life’s challenges, and I first want to applaud you for your courage. Your motivation to the openness, vulnerability, and change involved in the therapy process is perhaps the most important predictor that therapy will be helpful for you. There is hope already in that.

I work with individuals, couples, families, and children (10+), providing a safe, supportive space for exploration and growth. Using an integrative, client-centered approach, I help clients navigate anxiety, depression, relationships, and life transitions, fostering resilience, self-awareness, and meaningful change. Together, we explore tools and strategies to support emotional well-being.

I’m Jessica, providing online therapy in Canada. I believe meaningful connections starts with trust and respect. It’s not always easy to find someone who offers genuine empathy without judgement or expectations. I believe that everyone has the ability to overcome obstacles. My focus is on helping you and your family tap into that inner resilience that is already within you.

Are you tired of struggling and just want things to be easier? Do you feel like you need to get out of your own way, but you don’t know where to start? I know it can be hard to do the things that will make you feel better. Don’t worry, you aren’t doomed to feel this way forever. We will work together to find what works for you and help you move toward the life you envision for yourself.
