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!

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.
