Breanna Bell-Lee, M.Ed


Registered Psychotherapist (RP)

Hi, I’m Breanna! My approach to therapy is down-to-earth, empathic, inclusive, non-judgemental, and always keeping your goals in mind. It’s important for me to help you identify who and what is important to you and ways in which you might move towards the life you want to live. My therapeutic approach pulls from different theoretical orientations, including: Client-Centered Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), and Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT). I am happy to harness your creative interests (e.g., music, acting, writing, etc.) and integrate these into our work together.

I received my Bachelor of Arts (Honours) degree in Psychology and my Master of Education in Counselling Psychology degree from the University of Ottawa. I am a Registered Psychotherapist with the College of Registered Psychotherapists of Ontario (#009180).

Chief Empathy Officer (CEO)

Hello, I’m Bo! Around here they call me the Chief Empathy Officer (CEO). My main job description is to brighten everyone’s day. I also love treats (if you look closely, I saved some in my beard just for this picture!). If you’re lucky, you may see me in the background as I engage in my occasional supervisory duties. Feel free to say hi if you see me!
