Family Therapy in Ottawa

Understanding Family Challenges

Every family faces challenges. Sometimes these challenges are about communication, parenting, life transitions, or navigating conflict. Other times, they stem from deeper issues such as grief, mental health concerns, or stress that affects the whole household. Families often want the same thing: to feel connected, understood, and supported... but it can be hard to get there without guidance.

At Tiny Therapy Collective, we support families in Ottawa with compassion, respect, and practical strategies to build stronger relationships.


How Family Therapy Can Help

Family therapy creates a safe space for each member of your family to share, listen, and grow. Our therapists use evidence-based approaches such as CBT (Cognitive Behavioural Therapy), DBT (Dialectical Behaviour Therapy), and systemic family therapy to help:

  • Improve communication and reduce misunderstandings

  • Work through conflict in healthier ways

  • Strengthen trust and respect within the family

  • Develop parenting strategies that work for your unique situation

  • Support families experiencing transitions, such as divorce, blended families, or caregiving roles

  • Build resilience as a family unit when facing stress, illness, or loss


Everyday Supports for Families

Outside of therapy, families can take small but meaningful steps to strengthen their relationships:

  • Family meetings: Create space for everyone to share thoughts and feelings.

  • Active listening: Focus on hearing each other without rushing to respond.

  • Shared activities: Spend time together doing enjoyable, low-pressure things.

  • Clear boundaries: Set expectations with respect and consistency.

  • Celebrate small wins: Acknowledge efforts and positive changes as they happen.
