About us

We’re a group of therapists who bring authenticity, humour, and humanity to our work with you. We help you connect with yourself and those around you by understanding your patterns, your past, and what you actually need. Each of us works a little bit differently, so take a look at your options below and book a session when you’re ready.

about us

We're Levity Counselling

We are a therapy practice in Ottawa, Ontario that supports teens (14+) and adults from a trauma-informed, attachment-based, neurodivergence and LGBTQIA+ affirming lens. We value your lived experience more than anything we’ve read in a book or learned in a course; you’re the expert on you.

At Levity, we believe that much of our work lies in showing up authentically with our clients. Therapy shouldn’t feel stuffy, formal, or inaccessible. We work best with those wanting to work on their relationship with themself and others in a gentle (read: you’re not going to bully yourself into improving) way. Whether you feel disconnected from yourself or you struggle to set boundaries with others, we can help.

Who we are, how we work

Elisa, Jess, Megan, Angela, and Kayla make up the team at Levity Counselling. Each of us bring our unique self to our therapy work, but we all share some similar overarching beliefs, including:

You are the expert on you.
If you struggle with relationships, including your relationship with yourself, that makes you human, not broken.
We don’t have everything figured out; we merely have some objectivity to see your “stuff” from a different angle than you can.
Everyone deserves to be seen, heard, and understood.
Therapy should be a bit uncomfortable at times, but your emotional safety is a priority.
Neurodivergence is a facet of you to be celebrated and worked with, not something to be fixed or remedied.
