Men’s Issues
Delphine Amer
Registered Psychotherapist, M.Sc., Registered Psychotherapist
I use CBT, DBT, ACT, motivational interviewing and trauma treatment strategies for men's issues. Men face unique challenges because of the social narrative framing masculinity. Psychotherapy has also traditionally been geared to female audiences and men were traditionally reluctant to seek help; putting them at risk for developing anxiety disorders, depression and other related mental health challenges. I will do my best to put male clients at ease, build rapport and explore deeply the core beliefs, rules and assumptions that drive their negative or unhelpful automatic thoughts about themselves and others. I also believe that it is vital to teach relaxations and stress management to this demographic.

Tangled Minds Psychotherapy
Registered Psychotherapist, MA, RP, RCC
It can feel like a bewildering time to be a man the last few years. Whether it's intense career pressure in a shaky economy, trying to figure out how to be a good father and a breadwinner, struggling with addictions like pornography, or figuring out how to do this 'expressing you're emotions' thing men are always being told to do, it can feel impossible.
Behavioural therapy offers a clear path forward. Analyze the problem - understand it's root, and map out the mechanisms from trigger points to emotions to thoughts and to actions. Find intervention points, and create clear, do-able, trackable practices. This can be things like challenging our thoughts, creating new stories about ourselves, breathing exercises, or lifestyle changes. Make clear, concrete goals for change, and if we don't hit the mark, figure out why, and keep trying.
Yes - it would be easiest if you could do this all yourself. If that was possible, you wouldn't be reading this. My role as a therapist is to keep you accountable, provide clear guidance coming from years of experience helping men reach their goals, and to - when needed - challenge your thinking and actions in a way that friends and family can't.
We start with a free 15 minute consult to make sure it would be a good fit, go over the problem, ask questions, and review of a brief treatment plan. Therapy is a big commitment. It's worth it.

Men’s Issues
Sage Ariel Seguin
Registered Psychotherapist, QRP, MACP
I work with adult men navigating the patterns that often show up alongside ADHD, late-identified neurodivergence, perfectionism, over-functioning, and relational strain. Sessions offer a paced, non-performative space to slow down and look at what's actually going on underneath the coping — including masking, burnout, and rejection sensitivity. Together, we build emotional self-awareness and practical tools that hold up in real life, without requiring you to become someone you're not.

Steve Rose
Counsellor/Therapist, PhD, MA, BA, CGC (CCPC Global)
I support men struggling with addictive substances or behaviors such as gambling. Many men are finding themselves lost and lacking a sense of purpose, leaving them feeling like they are not needed or not good enough, seeking an escape. I delve into underlying issues so clients can gain a sense of purpose and self-worth.

Ryan Bittinger
Pre-Licensed Professional, Registered Psychotherapist (Q), DPsychotherapy, LPCC, CAS
Men face unique pressures and mixed messages in modern society. Many men are still raised in traditional masculinity, pressuring them into stoic performances of excellence and strength. Men's experiences are so much more than that - men feel loss, pain, rejection. Men desire to be kind, caring, and affectionate with their loved ones. Working with me on men's issues will allow you to take new perspectives of what you want being a man to mean to you - this can be unique to each and every man, and I strive to create a narrative with you that is empowering and allows you to be the best man you can.

Registered Psychotherapist, Registered Psychotherapist (RP), MACP, Bsc
I provide a supportive and confidential space for men to explore the unique emotional, relational, and societal challenges they may face. These can include struggles with identity, emotional expression, relationships, fatherhood, career pressures, and the impact of cultural expectations around masculinity. My approach encourages open dialogue and self-reflection, helping men develop healthier coping strategies, strengthen emotional resilience, and build more authentic connections. I aim to break down stigma and support men in leading more balanced, fulfilling lives—both mentally and emotionally.

Jane Allen
Psychologist, Master Counselling, BSc. Eng, MBA
I have worked with a lot of men in all age groups. Many men are still culturalized to appear strong and not show any feelings except anger. Common issues I have worked with are work stress, assertiveness training, lack of fulfillment in marriage, dating issues, communication issues, feelings of failure. I offer a safe, non-judgmental space for you to discuss issues that you do not feel comfortable sharing with your family and friends.

Gal Zohar
Registered Psychotherapist, M.Ed., Registered Psychotherapist
Many men grow up feeling pressure to stay composed, independent, or emotionally contained, making it difficult to open up or know how to process what they’re carrying. Therapy offers a space where you don’t have to perform, shut down, or “have it all figured out.” Together, we’ll explore patterns around emotions, relationships, vulnerability, self-worth, and identity in a way that feels supportive, honest, and nonjudgmental. My approach focuses on helping you better understand yourself, strengthen emotional awareness, and build more fulfilling connections with yourself and others.

Dennis Keefe
Registered Psychotherapist, M.A.
Often men need a space to be vulnerable about the issues they are facing without fear of judgment. This is what I like to provide. What can come out of this vulnerability if often greater connection and empowerment.

Watras Counselling and Psychotherapy Services
Registered Psychotherapist, RP, MACP, BSc
I specialize in working with men on a myriad of issues including anxiety, depression, reactivity, addiction, stress, relationship issues, etc.; the way one works with men can be very different than how one works with other populations. The culture, beliefs, and understanding of men can be so varied and skewed, and it is only through understanding these lenses that one can hope to accurately treat an individual.

Ottawa's identity as Canada's capital and a major hub for the federal public service creates a therapy landscape shaped by the particular stresses of government work — including bureaucratic frustration, political exposure, and the weight of careers lived in proximity to national policy decisions. The city's large bilingual population means both French- and English-speaking therapists are essential, with many practitioners offering services in both official languages. The Ottawa Hospital and Montfort Hospital provide institutional mental health resources alongside a private practice community serving the Glebe, Westboro, and Barrhaven areas. Ottawa's significant visible minority communities — including large Lebanese, Chinese, and Somali populations — drive growing demand for culturally affirming and multilingual therapists.
