Psychotherapy from one human to another

Levity Counselling Services offers trauma-informed, attachment-based psychotherapy without the stuffiness.

We support those who want to improve their relationship with themself or others. Whether you feel disconnected from yourself or you struggle to set boundaries with others, we can help. Got lots of feelings? Us too. We can help with that.

Welcome!

We are Levity Counselling.

Meet Elisa, Jess, Megan, Angela, and Kayla. We’re a team of five therapists in Ottawa who show up as humans first, therapists second. We help people with their relationships with themselves and others. Want to learn more about who we are and how we can help?

Why the Name Levity?

Levity’ means lightness. Specifically, it can mean lightness of weight or lightness of mind. We think “lightness of weight” and “lightness of mind” are both appropriate to our therapy work.

Levity’ is often associated with bringing lightness to a serious matter. We think that bringing some levity to tough moments is often helpful and therapeutic.

The curious paradox is that when I accept myself just as I am, then I can change.

- Carl Rogers

Why Work With Us

All of us at Levity Counselling place an emphasis on authentic, relatable care for your mental health concerns. We show up as humans who understand where you’re coming from because we come from there too. We don’t shy away from bringing our humanity into the therapy room; we have seen this candor, along with our chosen therapy approaches, lead to real change for so many clients. And you can be sure that you will be held with care with our team; we truly love our clients because we really get to know them deeply. Might we come to have an inside joke or two with you? Sure, yes. Do we sometimes make terrible attempts at using TikTok lingo? Also yes. Will we also sit with you when you need a moment to quietly collect your feelings? Absolutely.
