Julie Burnett
(she/they) RSW

Julie Burnett, RSW

At the core of Julie’s work is the belief that people are people, and problems are problems. People are not their problems. Sometimes problems feel like such a big part of you, it’s hard to see where you begin and it ends. Regardless of the problem, Julie believes that the essence of who you are is not defined by your emotional, relational, or motivational issues.

Julie works with all of her clients from an anti-oppressive framework where you are considered an expert in your own life experiences. Julie and her clients work together in finding how their experiences line up with research and adapting their mental health care to meet what they are feeling and dealing with in their day to day life.

Julie builds therapeutic relationships by discovering her client’s stories through curiosity and unconditional positive regard. Julie brings warmth, presence, and passion to all interactions with her clients.

Michael Dougan

Michael Dougan, RP

I am a Registered Psychotherapist and clinical supervisor with extensive experience in community mental health, higher education, and private practice. My practice includes providing virtual clinical services (i.e. individual psychotherapy and clinical supervision) to individuals 16 + years old within Ontario.

My therapeutic style is warm, collaborative, and experiential. I practice from strengths-based, relational, and trauma-informed frameworks. I am particularly interested in working with individuals in the healing/helping professions and folks grappling with life changes or existential concerns. I also have significant experience supporting individuals navigating experiences of grief/loss, social anxiety, and ADHD-related concerns.

Connor McCrindle RP (Qualifying)

Connor McCrindle, RP(Qualifying)

A down-to-earth therapist with a knack for turning life’s chaos into meaningful growth. Whether you’re navigating academic pressure, major transitions, or just trying to figure out what’s next, Connor is here to help you untangle the overwhelm with self-compassion, mindfulness, and a little bit of humor.

Connor believes therapy shouldn’t feel like homework. He creates a space where you can take a breath, drop the mask, and show up exactly as you are. His style is grounded in person-centered and ACT-informed approaches, blending emotional depth with real-world strategies. Think: less pressure to “fix,” more support to feel and move forward at your pace.

He’s especially skilled in working with high achievers—students, professionals, academics, and athletes—who are juggling intense demands while trying to stay grounded. If you’ve been living in burnout mode, stuck in perfectionism, or questioning your identity under all the pressure, Connor gets it. His goal isn’t just to help you cope, but to reconnect you with your own strength and clarity.

Neil Slattery

Neil Slattery, RSW

If you’re here, you’re probably looking for someone who just gets it—someone who can hold space for the hard stuff, who knows healing isn’t one-size-fits-all, and who can help you come home to yourself.

Neil is a Registered Social Worker with over 25 years of experience supporting people through some of life’s most intense seasons. After a long and impactful career at Youth Services Bureau, he brings both deep expertise and a calm, grounding energy to his therapy work. There’s just something special about a therapist who’s lived it, seen it, and still shows up with humour, heart, and a fierce commitment to community care.)

Neil works with adults, young people and families across Ottawa and beyond. His style is integrative, collaborative, and rooted in trauma-informed practice. While he draws from multiple approaches—including Internal Family Systems (IFS), DBT, CBT, narrative, and feminist therapies—his priority is always relationship first: building real therapeutic connection and tailoring support to fit each individual or family.

Neil enjoys working with clients from all walks of life, especially those navigating the ripple effects of trauma, attachment wounds, and everyday life stressors. He’s comfortable and experienced in supporting neurodiverse folks (including ADHD and learning disabilities), and brings a strengths-based lens to help you understand yourself more deeply, discover practical tools for self-care, and begin to integrate the parts of your story that feel hard to hold alone.

He’s also part of the team at Field Trip Health in Ottawa, where he offers Ketamine-Assisted Psychotherapy (KAP) as part of a multidisciplinary care model. If you’re exploring psychedelic-assisted therapy as part of your healing journey, this might be the therapist to support you along this transformative path.

Whether you’re burnt out, wrestling with grief, reworking relationships, or just ready to stop carrying it all on your own—Neil offers a space where you don’t have to explain yourself, hide parts of your story, or figure it all out right away.
