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.

Brian Baumal
Registered Psychotherapist, Registered Psychotherapist (RP)
I lost 100lbs and currently kept it off for eight years (I started August 15, 2012). I remember at my heaviest weight, I wanted to talk to someone who had been there, done that & understood I so badly wanted to change and my frustration at not changing. I wanted someone who could quiet my mind when it worried about my weight and help me gain control of my body and life. I know what it's like to start losing weight, only to abandon the effort shortly thereafter. If you repeat that pattern and put your health and quality of life at risk, then you likely feel that there are issues that need to be addressed psychologically - I can help!

Online therapy with me is practical, warm, and focused on real-life change. If you’re feeling overwhelmed, stuck in anxious loops, burned out, or carrying stress that won’t shut off, we’ll build tools you can use immediately—while also getting to the root of what’s keeping the pattern alive.

Mind By Design®
Registered Psychotherapist, Psychology and Coaching Clinics
Our Virtual Reality Therapy makes use of VR headsets and software to allow clients to experience situations that are related to their anxieties or fears virtually, such as fear of driving, fear of flying, social anxiety, specific phobias and obsessions, for the purpose of treatment.
We also utilize Psious@home, a new and simple solution for remotely accessing virtual reality therapy. The forced isolation due to the spread of COVID-19 is generating a situation of additional stress in most individuals. Psious@home not only provides a means of maintaining therapeutic progress, but also guidelines for overcoming the challenges of confinement.
Virtual reality is a complementary tool for traditional therapy, with its effectiveness supported by more than 25 years of scientific research. By allowing the therapist greater control and personalization than traditional methods such as imagined exposure, virtual reality facilitates faster progress through the immersion from the comfort of your home, to mitigate the effects of anxiety and stress.
Additionally, we provide telemedicine through Doxy.me, which is a secure online platform with video conferencing, and virtual waiting room features.

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.

**2026: ACCEPTING NEW CLIENTS**
Are you looking for a trauma therapist in Ontario or an experienced anxiety therapist who understands how overwhelming life can feel?

Alexis Bergeron, MSW, BSW, is a Registered Social Worker and Psychotherapist providing virtual therapy across Ontario for teens (12+) and adults. She specializes in helping people recover from trauma, PTSD, anxiety disorders, panic attacks, emotional overwhelm, and life transitions using evidence-based therapy tailored to each client's unique needs.
Alexis believes healing begins with feeling safe. 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. Whether you've experienced a single traumatic event, childhood trauma, ongoing stress, or simply feel exhausted by anxiety, Alexis provides a compassionate, supportive space where lasting change can happen.
Alexis holds both a Bachelor of Social Work (BSW) and Master of Social Work (MSW) from the University of Windsor. She has over six years of experience supporting individuals through mental health challenges in community mental health, eating disorder treatment, bereavement and hospice care, long-term care, and private practice.

What Therapy May Look Like

* Understanding how trauma affects the brain and nervous system
* Learning practical CBT strategies to change unhelpful thought patterns
* Building distress tolerance and emotion regulation using DBT skills
* Reducing anxiety and panic symptoms
* Increasing self-compassion and confidence
* Strengthening healthy relationships and boundaries
* Developing coping strategies you can use between sessions
Clients often describe Alexis as warm, approachable, genuine, and easy to talk to. She believes therapy should feel collaborative, not intimidating, and strives to create a space where clients feel understood without judgment.
Outside of work, Alexis enjoys spending time with her husband and two children, walking her dog, trying new recipes, and spending time outdoors. She understands the realities of balancing work, family, stress, and everyday life, and brings that understanding into her work with clients.

New Moon Psychotherapy
Registered Psychotherapist, MA, MACP, MSW, RSW, RP, RP(Q)
New Moon Psychotherapy offers virtual services using secure video conferencing or telephone call. Prefer virtual work but would like a few appointments first in office? We can make that happen!
While the shift to online therapy in 2020 was essential, what we've since learned is that the same evidence-based work can be done online with the added benefit of convenience and accessibility for the client.
Busy professionals, students, and parents appreciate the reduced time commitment (no more travel time!) and cost effectiveness (no more parking or transportation costs!). Folks from small or underserviced communities have increased options for care and increased privacy of not having to open up to a member of their community. Many others see the benefit of joining from home where furry friends and comfort items are easily accessible.
Reach out today to discuss how Online Therapy might fit into your life and for a complimentary consultation with our skilled clinical team.

I work with individuals, couples, children, and families and offer a free consultation to see if I am the right therapist to support you through this journey.

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.
