Emilie Wheaton
Pre-Licensed Professional, Pre-Licensed Clinician
OCD can feel exhausting, isolating, and difficult to explain to others, especially when intrusive thoughts and compulsions begin impacting daily life and relationships. I support clients in understanding the cycle of OCD, reducing shame and fear around intrusive thoughts, and building healthier ways of responding to anxiety and uncertainty.

Delphine Amer
Registered Psychotherapist, M.Sc., Registered Psychotherapist
Living with OCD is extremely difficult and challenging. I am pleased that you have decided to reach out because the good news is that OCD can be managed very successfully. I have extensive training in the management of OCD symptoms (obsessions and the resulting compulsions) and utilize ERP (exposure response prevention) to begin your journey toward conquering OCD symptoms. ERP has been shown clinically to be the most effective treatment for OCD. Join me; let's get the OCD bully under control!

Dennis Keefe
Registered Psychotherapist, M.A.
I like to help clients let go of the need to control everything. Often the cost of preventing bad things from happening is greater than the cost of the bad things actually happening. I often use CBT to do structured work beginning with psychoeduction particularly around the causes of OCD and what is maintaining it. Then an examination of unhelpful thoughts specifically targeting the client's thoughts about the intrusive thoughts. Often followed by Exposure Response Prevention (ERP) where the client is aided in reducing compulsive behaviour.

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.
