Autism
Haimove Amir
Registered Psychotherapist, psychotherapist
I provide individualized, neurodiversity-informed support for autistic children, teens, and adults, including individuals who identify with or have previously been diagnosed with Asperger's syndrome. My approach focuses on understanding the person rather than defining them by a diagnosis. Therapy may address communication, emotional regulation, anxiety, social relationships, self-confidence, sensory experiences, daily challenges, and family relationships. With children, I may use play-based and creative approaches to support communication and emotional expression. I also work with parents and families to better understand their child's strengths and needs and develop practical strategies that support connection, confidence, and meaningful participation in everyday life.

Kevin Greene, Health & Happiness: Counselling and Wellness
Registered Psychotherapist, Master of Arts in Counselling Psychology
I work with high functioning individuals with Autism/Asperger's and try to help them manage their anxiety while learning social norms that might be a challenge for them. Many people lose sight of the fact that a person with Austim/Asperger's has the potential to fit into society and thrive. What they sometimes need is a person to help them navigate their way.

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.
