Ottawa and Toronto Counselling and Psychotherapy Centre
We have grown! We started out as a small group of therapists in Ottawa and now have expanded to Toronto. We now offer virtual services for anyone in Ontario and some of us are now offering in person sessions in the Ottawa Region and in Toronto. Contact us to help you navigate our site or to set you up with one of our therapists.

How do I choose the right therapist?
Picking the right therapist is a challenging task. The goal is to find someone you can trust and who is going to help you navigate your counselling needs. Unfortunately, it's a bit like online dating; you won't know if they are going to be a good fit until you meet in person. Here are some helpful tips to start the process.
Fees & insurance coverage
Our fees vary per therapist, you will find what each therapist charges under ‘our therapists’ tab. Fees vary between $125/hr and $200/hr depending on the therapist. Our services are not covered by OHIP and our therapists don’t offer a sliding scale. We do however, have Master level student interns who charge $80/hr and offer a sliding scale if needed.
If you have medical coverage through your employer or individual plan, please contact your insurance company before your appointment as many insurance plans do cover a portion of the services we provide.
Our Students
Our students are at the end of their Master’s programs and are currently completing their internships. Their goal is to provide you, to the best of their abilities, the support you need in your therapeutic journey. This journey looks different from one person to another and to ensure that their guidance aligns with the needs you bring in with you to every session, they:
• Attend weekly supervision meetings
• Pursue personal and professional development through trainings, readings, and seminars
• Seek therapy of their own
• Their commitment to you is to walk into every session with an open and acceptant heart and mind to give you the space you need in that moment, whatever that might look like.
Placements are usually 8 months in length, and many choose to continue their work at the centre after completion so you are able to receive continuity of care. OCP’s hope is to offer the community affordable therapy while providing new therapists the opportunity to gain experience and start their own private practice.
