Julie Taylor Counselling
Counsellor/Therapist, MTC, RCS
People with Autistic or Aspergers' symptoms are often the most sensitive among us. Life often feels much 'louder' and difficult to cope with but they can learn how to control those symptoms. There is so much we can do to 'normalize' these symptoms.

Bonny Kaman Li
Counsellor/Therapist, Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying), MACP
Therapy for autistic adults focuses on understanding your own neurotype without pathologizing it, while addressing co-occurring anxiety, burnout, or masking fatigue. Support is tailored to how you process the world, not a one-size-fits-all model.

Seasons Family centre
Psychologist, RCC, RPsych
Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) is a neurodevelopmental condition that affects how a child perceives and interacts with the world around them. It can impact social communication, behaviour, and the way they engage with others. Each child with ASD is unique, and the severity of symptoms varies widely. Some children may have challenges in social interactions, difficulty with verbal and non-verbal communication, and exhibit repetitive behaviours or restricted interests.
At Seasons Family Centre, we understand that early intervention and accurate assessment are crucial for children with ASD. We offer ASD assessments for children as young as 12 months old to young adulthood (~25 years of age).
These assessments enable us not only to diagnose ASD but also to determine the extent of their unique needs. They offer parents and caregivers a clear understanding of their child’s strengths and challenges, and provide access to a range of developmental supports aided by provincial funding.
