Lia Khalili
Registered Psychotherapist, Registered Psychotherapist (RP)
At Bright Start Bright Future Counselling Centre, supporting children, teens, and families through their formative years is the absolute core of my practice. Drawing on over 20 years of clinical experience as a Registered Psychotherapist and child development author, I specialize in transforming daily behavioral, academic, and emotional challenges into lasting confidence, self-regulation, and deep family peace.
Child Therapy & Parent Support:
Every child has unique strengths, but navigating big emotions, ADHD, or school anxiety can feel overwhelming for the whole household. Using gentle, evidence-based play therapy and art interventions, I quickly put children at ease. This creative approach allows younger clients to externalize and process challenges that are often too complex to put into words. Alongside play-based care, I introduce CleverQuest™ Cognitive Training to physically strengthen working memory, attention, and executive functioning, giving children the tangible tools they need to succeed inside and outside the classroom.
Youth & Adolescent Counselling:
Adolescence brings intense unique pressures. I work collaboratively with teenagers experiencing depression, social isolation, relationship challenges, academic stress, or trauma. Combining Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) with practical Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) skills, I empower teens to short-circuit racing thoughts, quiet intense worrying, and manage peer pressures with genuine resilience.
My goal is to provide a safe, confidential, and family-centered environment where your child feels completely understood and supported. Whether you are seeking practical parenting strategies or specialized mental health support for your teen, contact me today to schedule a free 15-minute consultation.

Sara Ahmadzadeh
Registered Psychotherapist, RP
When the world feels too big and the feelings too hard to name, children and teens need more than answers — they need to feel understood. Therapy offers a space where they can make sense of their inner world, find their voice, and feel more like themselves.

Goran Kosanovic
Registered Psychotherapist, HBCom, MACP
Children and adolescents face unique challenges that can impact their emotional well-being, including issues like anxiety, depression, behavioral problems, and difficulties with self-esteem. Therapy for young people focuses on providing supportive interventions to address these challenges, using evidence-based techniques such as solution-focused brief therapy (SFBT). By working with both the child and family, therapy can help improve communication skills, develop coping strategies, and promote positive behavior changes. Whether navigating school stress, peer pressure, or family dynamics, therapy helps children and adolescents build resilience, improve emotional regulation, and develop the skills they need for a healthy future.

Tony Miller
Registered Psychotherapist, PhD, RP
While I do not work with youth under the age of 16, our clinic has many child and family therapists who are availability to schedule a free consultation. Since children are often impacted by family dynamics, we often find the most effective way to work with children, ages 6-11, is within the context of family therapy.

Melissa Letourneau
Registered Psychotherapist, RP
My approach is grounded in authenticity, trust, and often humour. I believe you have the wisdom to navigate life’s challenges and I strive to help empower you to facilitate change in therapy. Therapy is a helpful outlet for youth transitioning through adolescence. I work with individuals, couples, children and families offering a free consultation to ensure we are a good fit. I carry a systemic lens, exploring the way culture, community and family shape our experiences and aspirations. I am committed to strength-based and anti-oppressive practice in my work. I recognize the importance and responsibility I have as a therapist, to address the systemic inequalities impacting clients in their lives.

Registered Psychotherapist, RP, Qualifying
Children and teens often express emotional struggles through behaviour, withdrawal, or difficulties at school and home. I create a safe, age-appropriate space for young people to explore their emotions, build emotional language, and develop healthy coping skills. Working collaboratively with caregivers when appropriate, I support youth in navigating identity, anxiety, ADHD, life transitions, and more.
