Conny Barry

Conny Barry believes that genuine change begins when people stop clinging to what feels safe but no longer serves them. A Canadian Certified Counsellor based in Ottawa with thirty years of clinical experience, Conny brings a holistic lens to her work — one that treats every person as interconnected in mind, body, and spirit, never as a collection of isolated symptoms.

Her background spans hospital-based multidisciplinary teams, residential treatment with youth and families, and private practice with individuals, couples, and people navigating addiction. She works with teenagers, adults, and older adults facing anxiety, depression, relationship breakdown, grief, personal identity, aging, and abuse — drawing on that breadth to meet people where they actually are. For clients whose evenings dissolve into scrolling rather than rest, she finds that working through the emotional patterns underneath those habits often matters more than the screen time itself.

Conny holds degrees from McGill, Carleton, and the University of Ottawa, with specializations in psychology and counselling. She offers both in-person and online sessions, and approaches every client — whether seen alone or as part of a couple or family — with the same steadying combination of compassion, rigour, and confidentiality.
