Situated in the rural southern part of the City of Ottawa along the scenic Rideau River, Kars lies just south of Manotick and within convenient commuting distance to the capital. Local economy blends agriculture, construction trades, small-scale manufacturing, professional services, and retail establishments that cater to both year-round residents and seasonal recreational visitors. Residents and businesses benefit from scenic waterfront access, nearby conservation areas and trails, strong community organizations, and easy highway connections for regional transportation. The village's small-town character, active volunteer culture, and proximity to Ottawa make it an attractive location for entrepreneurs seeking a quieter base close to urban markets.
In a small community like Kars, accessing professional mental health support can sometimes feel challenging. That's why our remote services at Crawford Therapy offer the exceptional benefit of privacy and confidentiality, allowing you to connect with experienced professionals from the comfort of your own home. You can receive the support you need without worrying about local visibility.
Crawford Therapy is an online support and wellness practice founded by Charlena Crawford, Clinic Director. We are dedicated to providing accessible and professional virtual services in a respectful and client-centered environment that embraces your unique needs.
Our practice connects individuals in Kars and throughout Ontario with independent professionals who offer a variety of regulated and non-regulated support services tailored to your requirements. You may work with registered psychotherapists, counsellors, coaches, and wellness consultants—each bringing their own qualifications and professional background.
We emphasize supportive, personalized, and accessible online care designed to help you navigate stress, anxiety, emotional overwhelm, life transitions, personal growth goals, lifestyle changes, and overall wellness concerns. Our independent providers offer various services, including psychotherapy and counselling, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), mindset and sober coaching, nutritional consulting, and wellness-focused support services.
Importantly, coaching and consulting services are non-clinical, educational, and focused on wellness, distinctly separate from psychotherapy and medical treatment, ensuring clarity in what we offer.
Our secure virtual platforms make it easy for residents of Kars and across Ontario to access our services privately and conveniently. At Crawford Therapy, we are committed to maintaining professionalism, privacy, accessibility, and ethical standards in all our services.
