Delphine Amer
Registered Psychotherapist, M.Sc., Registered Psychotherapist
Everyone worries at times, however, if these thoughts and feelings are relentless and it is difficult to turn off racing thoughts and constantly feeling on edge, you might be experiencing symptoms of anxiety. I provide powerful psychotherapy tools to help you challenge intrusive, scary thoughts and overwhelming feelings of panic and unease. Together, we will get to the root of your anxiety. Perhaps you are feeling overwhelmingly sad, demotivated and unable to move forward; symptoms typically felt during bouts of depression. Psychotherapy can lift that dark cloud and enable you to feel joy once again. I am trained in multiple therapeutic modalities including CBT, DBT, Solutions Focused, Motivational Interviewing and Certified Clinical Trauma Professional. My clinical skills enable me to provide you with tools to manage anxiety (specific fears and phobia. OCD, social, generalized), depression, grief, relationship difficulties and adjustment problems.
I provide personalized, client-centred treatment plans to meet your unique mental health needs. Everyone deserves to live a life filled with joy, calm, peace and self-acceptance. From infancy to adulthood, our psychological make-up is formed through our experiences both positive and negative and each of us are carrying some difficult things that often need to be explored to make sense of our current problems. My orientation is mainly cognitive behavioural (CBT) - focussing on the here and now and how to solve current problems in real time, however, as a registered psychotherapist, I understand how vital it is to fully understand past traumas, current problems and future aspirations. My passion is to enable all those I serve to find direction, solve problems, improve mental health and to start to enjoy life and all it has to offer. My hope is that you will be willing to begin that journey with me.

Chris Pankewich, Registered Psychotherapist – Toronto Therapy for Anxiety, Addiction, Relationships & Men’s Emotional Resilience
Registered Psychotherapist, Registered Psychotherapist (RP), Masters of Counselling Psychology (MACP)
Many of my clients engage exclusively with virtual therapy sessions. Most of them will state that having the option to do sessions virtually is much more accessible and allows them to attend throughout daytime hours. As a therapist there are many elements of virtual therapy that I do enjoy. I tend to be quite visual and like to share frameworks and concepts as I work with clients and virtual sessions allow me to share these elements on screen quite easily during sessions.

Angie Kingma (Mindfulness for Health)
Registered Psychotherapist, Registered Psychotherapist
Feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or just not like yourself lately? You’re not alone, and you don’t have to figure it out on your own.
Whether you're looking for relief from anxiety, feeling more confident in your day-to-day life, or ready to do some deeper emotional healing, I’m here to support you. Above all else, I believe that a strong, genuine therapeutic relationship is the foundation for meaningful change. You’ll be met with warmth, respect, compassion and humour; no judgment, just real connection.
Some of my clients come to therapy to shift unhelpful coping patterns. Others are working through painful past experiences that still affect them today. And many are somewhere in between, exploring new perspectives, building healthier habits, and reconnecting with their inner strength.
I integrate evidence-based approaches like Internal Family Systems (IFS), Mindfulness-Based Cognitive Therapy (MBCT), and Brainspotting, tailoring each session to meet your unique needs. But ultimately, the process is collaborative, and we’ll go at a pace that feels right for you.
Therapy can be a powerful space to slow down, reflect, and rediscover the clarity and confidence that’s already within you. If you’re ready to take that first step, I’m here and happy to walk beside you. Feel free to also inquire about my Therapy Intensives, which is an accelerated format of therapy compared to weekly sessions. Intensives can be a powerful way to dive deeper and experience meaningful shifts in a shorter period of time.

Therapy isn't about being told what to do- it's about working together to understand your experiences, calm your nervous system, develop practical coping skills, and build a life that feels meaningful again.

* Learning practical CBT strategies to change unhelpful thought patterns
* Building distress tolerance and emotion regulation using DBT skills
* Reducing anxiety and panic symptoms

Moeez Munshi
Registered Psychotherapist, RP, Qualifying, Clinical Intern
I offer online therapy to adults across Ontario that’s practical, warm, and easy to fit into a busy week. We’ll start by mapping your story and goals, then build a clear plan together—useful if you’re navigating stress, anxiety, trauma, identity questions, or men’s issues. My style blends evidence-based tools (CBT, ACT, and DBT-informed skills) with a humanistic, person-centred stance so you get both skills and depth, not one or the other. My background in training/coaching means sessions come with concrete steps between appointments and regular check-ins on progress. If you prefer face-to-face, I also see clients in person in Durham.

Richmond Hill is a rapidly growing Toronto suburb in York Region with a majority Chinese population in many of its newer residential developments, alongside significant South Asian and Middle Eastern communities, creating strong demand for Mandarin-, Cantonese-, and Farsi-speaking therapists who can work within East Asian and Iranian cultural frameworks. The city's affluent suburban character and proximity to Toronto's tech and finance economy create a population with both the means and motivation to seek therapy, though help-seeking stigma in some East Asian and Middle Eastern communities remains a consideration. Mackenzie Health provides institutional mental health resources, with many residents also accessing the broader Greater Toronto Area therapy ecosystem. Richmond Hill's fast growth and relatively new development mean community ties can be shallow, and therapists frequently address social isolation and the challenge of belonging in a transient suburban environment.
