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. I offer virtual sessions that fit busy schedules, including evenings on Mondays and Tuesdays, with additional Friday daytime and Sunday afternoon availability.

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.

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.

Yasmin Rombola-Bacchus
Registered Psychotherapist, BA, Registered Psychotherapist, Dipl. Psych.
I offer a free 30-50 minute consultation just so that we can see if we are a "good fit" as well as if online via video works well for you. I do offer telephone services as well, but this is done on a case-by-case/session-by-session basis.

Maor Bernshtein, MSW, RSW, Psychotherapist
Registered Social Worker, MSW, RSW, Psychotherapist
On the outside, you may appear capable or “fine,” while internally feeling stuck, emotionally reactive, anxious, disconnected, or exhausted. Past experiences may still be shaping how you respond to stress, conflict, and relationships, and you may want relief while trying to understand why the patterns keep showing up. Together, we’ll look deeper, make sense of what is happening, and build insight, emotional awareness, and ways to move forward with clarity, confidence, and control. Online therapy across Ontario offers a flexible way to do this work from a space where you can show up as you are. Visit pathwaytoself.ca to book a free 20-minute consultation and ask any questions you have.

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.

Franklynn Bartol
Pre-Licensed Professional, RP (Qualifying), MSc, MA
I know how scary it can be to face our struggles and open up to a new person—I’ve been in therapy myself for many years. It’s not easy work! That's why I’m focused on building trust and staying curious about who you are and how you’re experiencing the process. My hope is that you leave sessions feeling cared for, understood, accepted, and connected with.
I’m a Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying) who practices psychodynamic, relational therapy. This approach understands our struggles as stemming from difficulties in relationships, past and present. Maybe you haven’t received the kinds of connections, supports, and understanding you’ve needed and it’s impacted how you relate to yourself and others. Perhaps bad experiences have made it hard to navigate daily life or build new dynamics. You might be navigating loss, abandonment, harm, guilt, or conflict and need support with this. We’re nearly all impacted by cultures of disconnection, over-work, domination, and hyper-individualism. Relational therapy can be a space to notice all of this and experience something new—a more connected and fulfilling inner and outer life.
I’m dedicated to practicing from a client-led and trauma-informed perspective that understands the deeply traumatic impacts of white supremacy, colonialism, cishetero-patriarchy, ableism, and other oppressions. I will hold curiosity for how systems, culture, and identity impact your life, relationships, and our work together.
But in all of this, we only go as deep and as wide as you want to. I make sure we’re following your pace and attending to what feels most urgent. I won't tell you what healing looks like for you, but I'll be excited to figure that out together.

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.
