Sage Seguin, M.A., B.A., psychology, Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying)
Have you ever felt like your relationship is becoming harder to navigate, even when both of you care deeply and are trying your best? Maybe you keep getting stuck in the same patterns of miscommunication, emotional distance, conflict, or disconnection and despite your efforts, it feels difficult to reconnect.
Or perhaps you are navigating ADHD, ASD, or other forms of neurodiversity either individually or within your relationship and finding that differences in communication, emotional regulation, sensory needs, or daily routines are creating frustration, overwhelm, or a sense of being misunderstood. Add in the demands of parenting, caregiving, grief, or major life transitions, and it can feel even harder to stay connected to yourself and the people you love.
I work with couples, individuals, and families in Ottawa and the surrounding area, offering both in-person and virtual therapy. A key focus of my work is supporting couples who feel stuck in repeating cycles of miscommunication, conflict, emotional distance, or disconnection, even when there is care and commitment underneath. I also work with individuals and couples navigating ADHD, ASD, and neurodiversity, particularly where differences in communication, emotional regulation, executive functioning, sensory needs, or daily routines are impacting connection, increasing overwhelm, or creating patterns of misunderstanding and frustration.
Alongside this, I support clients navigating attachment wounds, betrayal and infidelity, intimacy concerns, grief and loss, burnout, anxiety, depression, perfectionism, boundary struggles, and major life transitions, including the added pressures of parenting or caring for aging family members.
My goal is to create a space where you can slow things down, feel supported, and better understand what is happening beneath the surface of these challenges. Together, we identify the patterns contributing to disconnection within yourself and your relationships, rebuild communication, strengthen emotional safety, and create more secure, meaningful ways of relating so you can express your needs more clearly, respond with greater empathy, and experience deeper connection.
My approach is collaborative, warm, neuro-affirming, and trauma-informed, drawing from evidenced-based modalities. I aim to support both insight and practical change so that therapy feels meaningful in everyday life, not just in session.
Whether we are working on couples therapy, family dynamics, or individual challenges, my goal is to help you feel less alone in what you are carrying and more supported in moving toward clarity, connection, and change.
A Bit About Me
Outside of work, I enjoy spending time outdoors going for walks or biking in my neighbourhood. I also value quiet time at home with my cats, Arya and Dakota, often relaxing while watching a new show. I enjoy exploring thrift stores and flea markets, and I have a growing interest in vintage clothing and vinyl records.
Music is also a big part of my life. While I cannot sing, I make up for it by listening often and enjoying everything from classic rock and country to the occasional metal and punk.
