Alessia Zita | Zita Psychotherapy
Registered Psychotherapist, Registered Psychotherapy (Qualifying)
Do you often feel stuck, anxious, or frustrated in your performance or training? Many athletes and performers push themselves hard while ignoring mental or emotional barriers, believing that struggle is “part of the process.” Over time, pressure, self-doubt, or fear of failure can hold you back from your full potential.
These experiences are not weaknesses—they are signals about where support could help you perform and recover more effectively. Together, we can explore your mindset, develop strategies for focus, resilience, and confidence, and help you feel more in control and lighter as you pursue your goals. You care about performance for a reason. Let’s explore why, and what comes next.

10 Years Experience
Online in Ottawa, ON Ontario
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.
