Lia Khalili
Registered Psychotherapist, Registered Psychotherapist (RP)
At Bright Start Bright Future Counselling Centre, we provide compassionate, neurodiversity-affirming care for children, youth, and adults on the Autism spectrum (including what was traditionally diagnosed as Asperger's). Drawing on over 20 years of clinical experience, my approach focuses on celebrating unique cognitive profiles while providing practical, evidence-based tools to navigate a world that is often not built for neurodivergent minds.
For autistic children and youth, challenges often manifest around school transitions, sensory processing overload, social communication, and intense emotional regulation hurdles. In our sessions, I integrate specialized play-based techniques, creative art therapy, and tailored Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) skills. This allows young clients to safely explore social dynamics, build self-regulation strategies, and reduce the deep exhaustion caused by social masking.
We also work closely with families through parent coaching to create supportive, predictable home environments that minimize meltdowns and reinforce communication. For adult individuals on the spectrum, our focus shifts to mastery over executive dysfunction, cultivating relationships, and navigating major life transitions with confidence. Let's work together to unlock your or your child's full potential—contact me today for a free 15-minute consultation.

Mind By Design®
Registered Psychotherapist, Psychology and Coaching Clinics
Autism Spectrum Disorder is a neurodevelopment disorder that impairs a person’s ability in communication, interpersonal interactions, and as a result, daily functioning. ASD can usually be detected within the first 3 years of life, during early childhood development. The effects of ASD can differ from person to person depending on the severity of their condition, their development level, and their age.
Asperger syndrome is a disorder on the Autism Spectrum, that affects a person’s functional and social development. These people often find it challenging to work in collaborative and busy environments and thus require a lot of support from people close to them.
