Natasha Tuletta-Bowman, PhDs, MA, MBA
Registered Psychotherapist, Registered Psychotherapist and Certified Solution Focused Brief & Couples Therapist
As a psychotherapist, my core mission is to create a safe, non-judgmental environment where clients can openly explore their emotions, thoughts, and life experiences. I believe in the inherent ability of every person to make meaningful changes in their life, and I see my role as a guide and support in this transformative process. Whether you're struggling with anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, or navigating major life transitions, I am here to help you work through these obstacles with empathy and understanding.
My therapeutic approach is rooted in deep empathy, active listening, and respect for each individual's unique path. I incorporate a range of therapeutic modalities, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), mindfulness techniques, and person-centered therapy, which allows me to customize treatment to fit your personal needs. I place great value on establishing a trusting and collaborative relationship, where you feel empowered to address your concerns at a pace that feels right for you.
Having worked with a diverse range of clients, I recognize that each person’s healing journey is different. My aim is to offer a supportive space where you can gain clarity, develop fresh perspectives, and move forward with renewed confidence. I am dedicated to walking alongside you as you navigate your challenges, celebrate your progress, and ultimately discover your inner strength and resilience.
It is a privilege to be part of my clients' healing journeys, and I am deeply committed to providing a space where you feel truly heard, understood, and supported throughout the entire process.

Semra Lamky, Emotional Peace Psychotherapy
Registered Psychotherapist, Registered Psychotherapist (RP), Canadian Certified Counsellor (CCC), MACP, Bsc
I hold a space where each person can be fully seen, heard, and met exactly where they are, with empathy, curiosity, and zero judgment. As a trauma-informed psychotherapist, I understand how past experiences can shape the way we relate to ourselves, others, and the world. I integrate EMDR, CBT, DBT, EFT, Solution-Focused, narrative and psychodynamic approaches to support healing not just at the surface, but at a deep, meaningful level.
Therapy with me is not about fixing you, because you are not broken. It’s about helping you reconnect with your strengths, untangle painful patterns, and move toward the life you want to live. I work collaboratively, honouring your pace and your story, and tailoring our work to what truly resonates for you.
Whether you're feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or simply looking to understand yourself better, I’m here to walk alongside you with compassion and care. If you're ready to explore what’s been holding you back—and what’s possible—I invite you to reach out. You don’t have to do this alone.

Ottawa's identity as Canada's capital and a major hub for the federal public service creates a therapy landscape shaped by the particular stresses of government work — including bureaucratic frustration, political exposure, and the weight of careers lived in proximity to national policy decisions. The city's large bilingual population means both French- and English-speaking therapists are essential, with many practitioners offering services in both official languages. The Ottawa Hospital and Montfort Hospital provide institutional mental health resources alongside a private practice community serving the Glebe, Westboro, and Barrhaven areas. Ottawa's significant visible minority communities — including large Lebanese, Chinese, and Somali populations — drive growing demand for culturally affirming and multilingual therapists.
