Psychological Assessment
We offer psychologist led evidence-based psychological assessment services, including mental health, cognitive ability, academic achievement, career, as well as personality and work performance assessments. Our psychological assessments are conducted in a stepwise modular manner so that only the testing that you need is completed to optimize benefits to you for your investment.
Individual Psychotherapy
Our team of psychology & psychotherapy experts specialize in effective, evidence-based psychotherapies delivered in an individualized, collaborative and trauma-sensitive manner. We offer therapy options for adolescents and adults, in person in Ottawa, across Ontario and select other Canadian provinces virtually.
Your treatment plans are developed collaboratively with your ORIMH clinician, drawing from various therapeutic approaches based on your unique needs.
Group Therapy
Group skills training and group psychotherapy are effective, evidence-based, accessible and powerful means to psychological transformation. Ottawa River Integrative Mental Health regularly offers mindfulness, compassion-based, and trauma-sensitive group programs.
We provide specialized groups including Mindful Self Compassion, Mindfulness Based Stress Reduction, and Mindfulness Based Cognitive Therapy for various concerns.
Couple & Family Therapy
Strong relationships with intimate partners and family members are some of the best gifts you can give yourself for health, wellbeing and longevity, as well as gifts you can offer to those you love.
We have expert clinicians trained to improve communication, overcome attachment traumas, deepen intimacy, and transcend stuck patterns in your relationships.
