Sanofer Ansari
Licensed Mental Health Counsellor, MACP
Approach: Emotion-focused, CBT and boundary-focused work.
We explore patterns of people-pleasing, over-responsibility, difficulty saying no, fear of rejection, and losing oneself within relationships. I help clients understand the protective function behind these patterns and develop healthier boundaries while maintaining connection.

Samantha Mirarchi | Wild Sage Therapy
Registered Social Worker, MSW, RSW
If you tend to put others needs ahead of your own, struggle to set boundaries, or feel anxious when you're not helping, pleasing, or fixing, you might be dealing with codependent patterns. It can feel like your worth is tied to being needed, and saying “no” or asking for space brings up guilt or fear of abandonment.
In therapy, we’ll explore where these patterns come from, how they show up in your relationships, and how to start shifting them. You’ll learn to reconnect with your needs, build healthy boundaries, and create relationships rooted in mutual respect, not self-sacrifice.
You’re allowed to take up space, prioritize yourself, and have relationships where you don’t have to earn love by overgiving. Let’s work on that together.

Goran Kosanovic
Registered Psychotherapist, HBCom, MACP
Codependency can create unhealthy, one-sided relationships where individuals feel overly responsible for others’ feelings, behaviors, or well-being. Through solution-focused brief therapy (SFBT), individuals can explore the patterns that contribute to codependent behaviors and work toward establishing healthier boundaries, self-esteem, and emotional independence. Therapy helps clients recognize the signs of codependency in relationships, whether in romantic partnerships, family dynamics, or friendships, and provides actionable tools to build more balanced, mutually fulfilling connections. Overcoming codependency allows individuals to regain self-worth, foster personal growth, and develop healthier, more sustainable relationships.

Codependent patterns often stem from early experiences of attachment, caregiving roles, or trauma. I help clients understand their relationship dynamics, reconnect with their own needs, and establish healthy boundaries.

Markham is one of the most ethnically Chinese cities in North America, with Chinese residents making up the largest share of the population and a significant South Asian minority, creating a therapy community with unusually strong demand for Mandarin-, Cantonese-, and Punjabi-speaking practitioners. The city is a major technology hub — home to Canadian headquarters for IBM, AMD, and dozens of other multinationals — generating consistent demand for therapists who work with high-performance workplace stress, burnout, and the particular identity pressures of first-generation professionals navigating career expectations between cultures. Markham Stouffville Hospital provides institutional mental health resources, while many residents also access care through the broader Toronto metro therapy ecosystem. Help-seeking stigma in some East Asian communities remains an important context for therapists, who often find themselves helping clients normalize therapy alongside the clinical work.
