Jessie Erb
Registered Psychotherapist, DPsychotherapy
I am a feminist psychodynamic practitioner who works relationally with women and men to tackle the injustices that are prevalent in day-to-day lives. I have written on the female body and subjugations/representations placed upon physical appearance that makes identifying as 'female' difficult, demeaning and often painful.

Jane Allen
Psychologist, Master Counselling, BSc. Eng, MBA
Many women have been culturalized to be caregivers and "people-pleasers". Sometimes women feel like they are trapped in this role and want to explore how they can change and how they can change their environments. Relationships may feel unbalanced. I can help you understand yourself more and how you can change to live a more fulfilling life.

Tanya Beach
Registered Psychotherapist, MA, RP (Qualifying)
Addressing women’s issues in therapy requires a nuanced understanding of the unique challenges women face in relation to societal, cultural, and relational pressures. These issues may include navigating roles in relationships, managing career and family responsibilities, dealing with gender-based discrimination, and processing the impact of gender-based violence such as sexual harassment or assault. A therapeutic approach that emphasizes empowerment and validates women’s lived experiences is essential. Therapy often explores the internalized messages women receive about their worth, body image, and identity, helping them challenge restrictive gender norms and cultivate self-compassion. Additionally, therapists may focus on building emotional resilience and assertiveness, fostering healthier relationships, and addressing the impact of intersectional factors such as race, class, and sexual orientation.

Lauren Kalvari
Registered Social Worker, PhD, MSW, RSW
Women often navigate complex emotional, relational, cultural, and caregiving pressures that can affect identity, self-worth, emotional stability, boundaries, and overall well-being. Experiences such as emotionally harmful relationships, coercive dynamics, chronic self-sacrifice, burnout, motherhood, relational trauma, life transitions, or loss of community can leave women feeling overwhelmed, emotionally depleted, or disconnected from themselves.
I provide trauma-informed virtual psychotherapy for women experiencing anxiety, chronic stress, grief, relational difficulties, trauma, emotional abuse, and major life changes. My approach is relational, culturally aware, and attentive to the broader social and spiritual contexts that shape women’s experiences, including family expectations, community pressures, and experiences of religious or cultural harm. Therapy offers space to strengthen self-trust, process difficult experiences, and reconnect with a greater sense of clarity, agency, and emotional stability.

Delphine Amer
Registered Psychotherapist, M.Sc., Registered Psychotherapist
It is often difficult to find a therapist who truly understands the mental load that is often carried by women. I spend considerable time allowing my female clients to tell me about they are experiencing, what they hope to change and what needs they have that are not being met. We will go on this journey together and I hope to create a safe, kind and caring space where you can unburden yourself without fear of judgement and a space where you can feel confident that I will do my best to understand you and to provide you with tools to help you. I use an integrative approach; utilizing CBT strategies, DBT, motivational interviewing, solutions focused therapy, trauma therapy (certified clinical trauma professional CCTP), EMDR, relaxation and mindfulness.

North Star Therapy-- Cleo Haber

Being a woman-identified person can bring with it many joys and challenges. In therapy we can help you navigate the socio-cultural expectations for women-identifying people in our patriarchal society, which can be exhausting. In therapy we may address issues about femininity, sexuality, gender roles, gender identity, changing bodies through life cycles, sexual maturity and activity, fertility treatments, pregnancy, motherhood, childlessness and menopause.

Sage Ariel Seguin
Registered Psychotherapist, QRP, MACP
I work with adult women — particularly those who've spent years over-giving at work, with family, or in relationships — and arrive exhausted, anxious, and disconnected from their own needs. Many are also navigating ADHD, late-identified neurodivergence, perfectionism, and the relational patterns that come with them. Using IFS, EFT, and DBT skills, we slow down to explore what's underneath people-pleasing and burnout, and rebuild a life shaped by your needs rather than everyone else's.

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.
