Common Questions We Hear

We know starting therapy can bring up a lot of questions. That’s completely okay — here are some of the things people often ask before getting started with us.

What is online therapy?

Online therapy (also called teletherapy or virtual counselling) is mental health care delivered by video, phone, or secure chat. In Ottawa, it lets you meet with a therapist from home using your computer or phone.

Does online therapy work as well as in-person therapy?

Yes. Research and many clients show online therapy can be just as effective for anxiety, depression, trauma, couples counselling, and more — as long as the therapist is licensed and skilled.

How much does therapy cost in Ottawa?

Costs vary by therapist and type of therapy. Typical online therapy session fees in Ottawa range from lower-cost sliding-scale options to standard private rates. Check our booking page or contact us for exact prices and sliding scale availability.

How long is a therapy session?

Most sessions are 50–60 minutes. Some services (like assessments or couple sessions) may be different. We’ll confirm length when you book.

What happens in my first therapy session?

You’ll meet your therapist, talk about what brought you to therapy, set goals, and agree on how you want to work. It’s an introduction — no pressure, just an initial plan.

How do I choose the right therapist in Ottawa?

Look for licensing, specialties (e.g., trauma, couples, child therapy), experience, and a good personal fit. We can match you with a therapist who fits your needs and preferences.

Can I switch therapists if the first one isn’t a good fit?

We always start with best match. Yes. If you feel it's not a good match, we’ll help you find another Gowthorpe Ottawa therapist who better matches your needs.

No matter where you are in your healing journey, support is available. Reach out today to connect with one of our Ottawa therapists — and begin your path toward a calmer, more grounded life.
