Felt Sense Psychotherapy

Psychotherapy in Ottawa & Virtual Therapy Across Ontario

Feeling overwhelmed, disconnected, or stuck in patterns that no longer serve you?

Therapy can help you better understand yourself, heal from past experiences, and build deeper connections with yourself and the people around you.

At Felt Sense Psychotherapy, we offer compassionate, trauma-informed therapy in Ottawa's west end (Nepean) and virtually across Ontario. We support individuals, couples, and families navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship challenges, neurodivergence, eating disorders, body image, self-esteem, addictions, grief, life transitions, emotional overwhelm, and disconnection from themselves.

Many people come to therapy with insight into their patterns but still feel stuck. Our work helps you move beyond understanding toward meaningful, lasting change through relational, attachment-focused, and nervous system-informed therapy.

Together, we'll create a safe, collaborative space to deepen self-awareness, self-compassion, and connection. By listening to your body's "felt sense"—the emotions, sensations, and inner knowing beneath words—you can better understand your needs, shift old patterns, and build a life that feels more connected and authentic.

Psychotherapy & Counselling Available In: English, French and Spanish

What is Psychotherapy?

Psychotherapy is a regulated, collaborative treatment in which a trained therapist supports you in addressing emotional, psychological, and relational challenges that affect your well-being. Through talk-based and somatic approaches, FSP therapists help you explore and shift patterns of thinking, feeling, and behaviour, improving daily functioning, relationships, and overall mental health.

Land Acknowledgement

Felt Sense Psychotherapy respectfully acknowledges that our practice is located on the traditional, unceded territory of the Algonquin Anishinaabe Nation. We honour the enduring presence, knowledge, and resilience of the Algonquin people, as well as all First Nations, Inuit, and Métis communities who call this land home.​As a practice grounded in care, connection, and healing, we recognize that land acknowledgements alone are not enough. Words must be accompanied by meaningful action, reflection, and accountability. We are committed to ongoing learning about the histories and ongoing impacts of colonization, to challenging systemic inequities, and to supporting Indigenous voices, sovereignty, and self-determination.​We hold this acknowledgement as a starting point—an invitation to remain attentive to the land we practice on, the relationships we are part of, and the responsibilities we carry in contributing to more just and equitable systems of care.
