OCISO’s Counselling Program is uniquely equipped to provide counselling services to the immigrant and refugee population in Ottawa. We offer clinical counselling to culturally diverse clients with migration and culture-related issues, and specialize in assisting survivors of war torture, trauma, political persecution and imprisonment. We employ a wide variety of intervention techniques, which allow for a culturally responsive therapeutic process. We do not just “respect” our client’s culture – we incorporate that culture into the therapeutic process. OCISO provides counselling to couple and families with migration and culture-related issues as well as survivors of war, trauma, and torture.
Eligibility - open to all immigration classes.
Current Languages: English, Arabic, Dari, Farsi, Spanish and French.
