The Ottawa Institute of Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (OICBT) is dedicated to providing assessment and therapy services for a wide range of mental health problems. Established in 2009, OICBT stands out among clinics in Canada by offering intensive day treatment programming for anxiety, obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD), post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), and depression. In addition to their clinical services, they also provide training to students and health professionals, as well as consultation services to organizations.

If you are interested in receiving services from OICBT, their Information for New Clients page offers important details about their intake process, insurance coverage, and inter-provincial services via videoconference. You can also schedule a free 15-minute information call to learn more about their services for adults or seniors. OICBT also provides psycho-educational assessments for children aged 12 to 18 years.

Due to COVID-19, most of their services are currently provided through teletherapy (telephone or videoconference). However, they are planning to offer optional in-person services for individual therapy in the fall of 2022. OICBT's approach is grounded in holistic care, incorporating client-centered and diversity-informed practices.

They prioritize integrating clients' unique identities and experiences into their assessment and intervention services, ensuring a comprehensive and inclusive approach to mental health care
