Sophia Kopelow
Counsellor/Therapist, MA, RCC
As your counsellor, I will explore your experiences through a neurodivergent-affirming lens and do not believe you need “fixing” in any way. Rather, I believe you have unique gifts to bring to the world. I help clients unpack what it's like to be neurodivergent in a neuro-normative society and develop the confidence and skills needed to navigate future challenges successfully. I am passionate about empowering clients to step into the truth of who they are unapologetically and with self acceptance. I support clients struggling with emotional regulation, overstimulation, relationships, self worth, and processing experiences of going undiagnosed and/or being misdiagnosed during your formative years. I offer in-person, virtual or walk and talk therapy. I would love to hear from you—head to my website to book your free 20-minute consultation.

Jonathan Christink
Registered Psychotherapist, BA, BEd, MEd, Registered Psychotherapist
Autism and Asperger's can be confusing in that they can present in so many diverse ways. Learning about their different presentations helps to build understanding in order to more confidently navigate life's challenges. If you're looking for therapy to work on difficulties surrounding autism please don't hesitate to reach out, it'd be wonderful to connect.

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.
