Therapy for Anxiety, ADHD, Trauma & Relationships
We offer a warm, culturally responsive space where you can feel understood, explore what’s weighing on you, and begin to find your way forward.
Everyone is welcome. We have a special focus on supporting immigrants and adult children of immigrants as they navigate identity, belonging, family expectations, and the complexities of life between cultures.
Healing isn't about perfection. It's about finding your blissful balance.

"Before I founded Blissful Balance Counselling, I found it difficult to find a therapist who understood my cultural background and that I just...clicked with. Through careful selection, I have cultivated a team of therapists who possess not only the knowledge and training but also the lived experiences necessary to effectively serve clients from diverse backgrounds. At Blissful Balance Counselling, we are committed to support you in navigating life's challenges, guiding you toward greater resilience and restoring balance and bliss in your life."

Land Acknowledgement
Blissful Balance Counselling acknowledges that Ottawa is situated on the unceded territory of the Anishinabe Algonquin Nation, whose peoples have lived on and cared for these lands for millennia. We honour their enduring presence, knowledge, cultures, and contributions, and extend our respect to all First Nations, Inuit, and Métis peoples, past and present.
As a counselling practice committed to anti-oppressive and inclusive care, we recognize that reconciliation requires ongoing reflection, learning, and meaningful action. We strive to create a therapeutic space grounded in respect, humility, and cultural awareness, while acknowledging the ongoing impacts of colonialism on Indigenous communities and the importance of listening to and learning from Indigenous voices.
