Private Alcohol Support in Ottawa, From Home
You don't need to travel to Toronto or wait months for a referral. Get medical treatment and therapy from your home in Ottawa, Gatineau, or anywhere in Eastern Ontario.
In a city built on government careers and security clearances, the stakes around privacy are higher than almost anywhere else in Canada. A formal addiction record can affect your clearance, your position, and your reputation. We operate completely outside the public system. Nothing goes to your GP, your employer, or any government database.
Why Virtual Care Works for Ottawa

- Total Privacy: As a government town, discretion matters. No risk of running into colleagues at a local clinic.
- Fast Access: While local addiction services have long waitlists, we can see you within 48 hours.
Your Private Medical Team
We operate independently from the public system to ensure 100% confidentiality.
- •Zero Paper Trail: We do not report to your family doctor or employer.
- •Direct Pharmacy Access: We fax private prescriptions to any pharmacy (Shoppers, Rexall, etc.).
- •No Referrals Needed: You do not need a note from your GP to start.
What Getting Help Actually Looks Like If You Live in Ottawa
You book a free 20-minute call. If it feels right, we schedule your medical intake, a private video appointment with one of our Nurse Practitioners, from wherever you are in Ottawa or the National Capital Region.
Your NP reviews your history and, if appropriate, writes a private prescription for Naltrexone. It goes to any pharmacy you choose in Ottawa, Shoppers on Rideau, a Rexall in Kanata, wherever is convenient. You pick it up like any other prescription, with no label that announces what it is for.
From there, you work with a therapist who specialises in alcohol and The Sinclair Method. Sessions are by video, weekly, timed around government schedules, shift work, or whatever your week actually looks like.
No referral from your departmental health plan. No paper trail into federal health databases. No local clinic where a colleague might recognise you.
