Adults Therapists in Ottawa, ON

I have been providing collaborative mental health and addiction services for youth, adolescents and adults in the Ottawa Region for the past 18 years. I work closely with individuals and families to identify the best treatment plans to meet their unique needs. Some techniques I use include Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, Collaborative Problem Solving, Mindfulness Integrated CBT, Trauma Practice and Addiction Issues. I use an assertive care approach which can provide some support between sessions, as needed, for clients to meet their goals with non-life-threatening mental health challenges. Many clients have found this very helpful.

Reaching out for help can be difficult. It is a deeply personal experience that can come with feelings of vulnerability and uncertainty. I want to commend you for getting to this point. Life can be overwhelming at times, you may feel like what used to help is no longer effective. Let me assure you that you are not alone, these feelings are more common than you think! I offer evidence-based therapy that has brought on desired change into the lives of many adults who have committed to engaging in therapy.

I work with young adults and adults who are dealing with issues including ADHD, anxiety, depression, PMDD, school/ workplace stress, and major life transitions. I am passionate about helping clients get unstuck from their struggles and start living fuller, more enriched lives. I strive to foster an environment that feels safe, supportive, comfortable, and collaborative, so that you can show up as your authentic self and work towards creating the life you want to live!

I specialize in treating adults (age: 18-65 yrs.) and older adults (age: 65yrs.+). I am committed to creating a safe and non-judgmental space for clients to achieve their goals and aspirations and improve their well-being. I bring a wealth of personal experience in mindfulness meditation (22 yrs. + practice) and have previously developed a research-based mindfulness clinical protocol in the treatment of adult ADHD. I can help those who are struggling with attention and organization difficulties, mood and emotional dysregulation, relationships and decision-making problems, and identity and existential crises.

Does it feel like your emotions are a burden rather than a valuable message? Are you struggling to cope with the demands of school and interpersonal relationships? Are you and your partner feeling stuck in the same negative cycle? Emotions can often feel either numb or too big, getting in the way of authentic connection to self and others. I am here to help you reconnect with your body, with your emotions, and with yourself. I work with eating disorders, anger management, self-compassion, trauma and coping with big or numbed emotions. I work especially with teens but also adults of all ages, including couples.

At one time or another, the cliché that sometimes you just need a little help applies to us all. Unsure where to seek support? I would be happy to connect with you and help get you started on the path to better mental and emotional wellness. My focus is in supporting people with mental health issues within our diverse community. I offer psychotherapy services to adults and adolescents struggling with severe and persistent mental illness (Bipolar Disorder, Anxiety and Depression to name a few), substance use disorders, emotional dysregulation, domestic abuse, and involved with the criminal justice system.

I am a professional psychotherapist that specializes in blending mind and body therapies to help remove barriers to our sense of calm and joy. In a trusting and non-judgmental environment, the brain’s natural healing is encouraged. I have been working in the non-profit mental health field for 10 years in a variety of areas including: Addictions and Family Treatment, Medical Clinics with a focus on anxiety, depression, stress, insomnia and chronic pain, and in Community Health Centres with older adults managing life transitions and grief.

What is trauma? How trauma can affect my life, the lives of those I love and even my community. How does trauma affect different aspects of my life, such as my interpersonal relationships, my physical and financial health, my sexual lifestyle, my spirituality and, of course, my mental and emotional health? Working on traumatic experiences, whether long-term, recent, intergenerational or ongoing trauma, is not easy work, but when done with support and empathy, it is exceptional work that is worth doing first for ourselves, but also for those we love and our community.

The Firestone CBT Clinic offers psychological assessment, treatment, and consultation for adults and adolescents who want help with a range of issues, including anxiety, depression, eating disorders and many other psychological concerns.

I work from an approach grounded in self-compassion and the understanding that difficult times are not a sign of personal failure. I believe that healing requires unlearning the parts of ourselves and our experiences that keep us burdened in favour of kinder ways of being.

My goal is to empower my clients by offering support, insight and guidance towards positive change. I aim to inspire my clients to embark on a journey to reach their full potential by tapping into each person's positive and creative coping resources as well as their innate understanding of what they need to heal and grow. I strive to provide a judgement-free, safe and collaborative environment that is tailored to each individual.

It is important to us that our clients feel comfortable and safe exploring distressing thoughts, emotions and behaviours that may be preventing them from moving forward.

Welcome to Connections Psychology, a group of Registered Psychologists and Psychotherapists, who provide quality mental health services to children, adolescents, adults, and parents. Although the importance of mental health is often discussed, it can be hard to navigate knowing when you may benefit from extra support and how to find the right place/person to provide it. Regardless of what brings someone to our services, we prioritize understanding their experience so that we can work collaboratively on a path that feels right to them. We believe that everyone is doing the best they can and may benefit from extra support/guidance.

I work with adults in clinical and health psychology in both English and French.  I treat a variety of psychological issues, on their own or in combination, including depression, anxiety, eating disorders, obsessive-compulsive disorder, personality disorders and trauma.  I work with clients with chronic pain or other health problems.  I also help clients with  relationship issues, work stress, identity issues, existential concerns, LGBTQ concerns, grief, self-esteem, and self-acceptance.

Since 2005, I have worked with adults seeking support based on concerns related to difficulties with negative emotions (like anger, anxiety, depression, or shame), behaviours that impact their work or relationships (like aggression, addictions, or compulsions), or patterns in their relationships that prevent them from feeling good about themselves or developing more satisfying connections. I will help you explore the origins of these concerns and work with you to emancipate yourself from these struggles.

Do you feel overwhelmed, sad or ashamed? Have you tried to solve things on your own with no significant results? Do you fear that you'll always have to live as though you are barely keeping your head above water? If you answered yes to any of those questions, you've clicked on the right profile. I understand! My name is Carolina and I help adults struggling with mental health. Having been diagnosed with ADHD as an adult, my personal experience is an additional asset to my professional expertise. So many of my clients started where you are, and are now reporting feeling empowered, in control and thriving. I want that for you too!
