online therapy in ottawa:
accessible and effective mental health support

At Lacasse Counselling, we understand that life's demands can sometimes make it difficult to attend in-person therapy sessions. That’s why we offer online therapy services to clients in Ottawa and across Ontario. Our online therapy provides the same depth, quality, and support as our in-person sessions, ensuring that you can engage in meaningful therapeutic work from the comfort and privacy of your home. Through secure video conferencing via JaneApp, you can access therapy at a time and place that suits your needs, allowing for greater flexibility without compromising the therapeutic process.​​

our approach:
online therapy

Our online therapy sessions are grounded in the same principles as our in-person work, following the theoretical approach of Self-in-Relationship Psychotherapy (SIRP) - a psychodynamic and psychoanalytic approach.

Whether you're seeking individual therapy, couples therapy, or marriage counselling, our online sessions maintain the same depth of care and exploration, focusing on the deeper emotional and psychological factors shaping your experiences, relationships, and behaviours.

​

Through online therapy, we help you understand and address the unconscious patterns that influence your thoughts and actions, creating a safe and compassionate virtual space for meaningful exploration and healing.

assessing suitability for online therapy

​While online therapy can be highly effective for many individuals and couples, it’s important to note that not all situations are suitable for this method. Our therapists will continually assess the appropriateness of online therapy throughout the treatment process to ensure that it remains efficient and ethical. If at any point online therapy becomes a barrier to effective treatment or presents challenges, your therapist will inform you and work with you to explore alternative options, including in-person sessions or other forms of support.

what to expect from online therapy

We believe that meaningful and lasting change takes time. Online therapy follows the same principles as our in-person sessions, focusing on a long-term process that evolves through a collaborative journey between you and your therapist. We don’t aim for quick fixes or short-term symptom management. Instead, we focus on building a strong, trusting therapeutic relationship that allows for deeper exploration and sustained personal growth.​ 

 

Our online therapy mirrors the depth and care provided in our couples therapy and individual therapy sessions. To dive deeper into what the therapeutic process looks like, we invite you to explore the specific journey of either individual or couples therapy linked below.
