Introducing the Ottawa Mental Health Clinic!
We are pleased to announce the opening of the Ottawa Mental Health Clinic, our new sister clinic in Westboro. As of October, 2026, our Registered Psychotherapists, Holly Johnston and Kira Baskerville, will be working from the new location. Dr. Nemiroff and our administrative assistant, Diana Malobe, will divide their time between the two locations.
The two clinics share a common referral system. Currently, service requests are made through the Aylmer Mental Health Clinic. Dr. Nemiroff reviews each service request and directs it to the most appropriate therapist at either clinic. If you have a preference for one location or the other, please let us know and we will do our best to match you with a therapist at the location of your choice.
We are hard at work getting this new venture off the ground and more changes will be announced as they happen. We look forward to serving you at our new location!

Our Mission
The Aylmer Mental Health Clinic is dedicated to providing effective, empathic, confidential mental health services in English and French. We serve adults, adolescents, children and families. We value compassion, inclusivity, and diversity, and strive to make our services accessible for all members of our community. We work collaboratively with our clients, treating each person as an individual with unique experiences and needs. We work to understand the context in which each client lives and navigates their daily challenges, and to provide services tailored to each person’s unique situation. We work in a non-judgemental fashion to empower our clients to work towards their own healing and mental health.

The Aylmer Mental Health clinic is a proudly inclusive space. We provide affirming care to members of the 2SLGBTQIA+ community of all ages, and encourage all of our therapists to receive education and training on working with 2SLGBTQIA+ people. |

The Aylmer Mental Health clinic is a neurodivergent-affirming space that embraces and validates the unique ways neurodivergent individuals experience and react to the world around them.

The Aylmer Mental Health Clinic is mindful of the hardships that have been placed on the First Nations, Inuit, and Métis peoples from colonization until now, and we acknowledge that the land on which we are located is traditional, unceded Algonquin Anishinaabeg territory. We recognize the mental health consequences of generational trauma, inequity, and discrimination, and we are committed to honouring truth and reconciliation. We incorporate the key values of respect, trust, self-determination, and commitment in our work, and it is important to us to ensure our Indigenous clients feel safe in the space we have created. Some ways in which we practice allyship include accepting Non-Insured Health Benefits (NIHB) and other third-party payment for Indigenous clients; strongly encouraging all staff and students at the clinic to receive training and education around providing contextually and culturally relevant care to Indigenous individuals; and ensuring clinic staff and students are aware of local resources for Indigenous people.
