Dr. Justin Gates, C.Psych.

My name is Justin Gates and I'm a clinical psychologist registered with the College of Psychologists of Ontario (CPO). I'm currently practicing in Ottawa. I provide assessment and treatment services to adolescents and adults (ages 12 and above).

​

Rarely do people find a career that they are passionate about. A Gallup poll from 2011/2012 found that only 16 percent of Canadians "work with passion and feel a profound connection to their company" (of course, I could argue that people can work to support other passions, including raising children!). I can honestly say that I am passionate about the work that I do. I say this not to boast that I'm one of the lucky few, but to suggest that you will receive my best services because I actively enjoy my work. The greatest satisfaction I find in my work is when the services I provide genuinely help you to live a better, healthier life.
