Phyllis Wai Ng
Registered Psychotherapist, MA, RP, CCC
Every family deserves to have harmony and respect. When one person is struggling with some issues, it is possible that the whole family suffers as well. Family therapy helps the family address their underlying emotions, ineffective communication patterns and maladaptive behaviors in order to improve their communication skills and resolve their conflicts.

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. Each family is difference, and therapy can offer a space to explore your expectations and approaches to parenting. 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.

Ahmadreza Zamani
Registered Psychotherapist, Registered Psychotherapist
Parenting is one of the most challenging and rewarding experiences a person can have. It involves raising and caring for children, guiding their development, and helping them grow into responsible, productive adults. However, parenting can also be stressful and overwhelming, particularly for new parents or those facing unique challenges such as behavioral issues or special needs.
Parenting support and guidance can be beneficial for improving parenting skills, reducing stress, and promoting a positive and healthy family environment. Psychotherapy, specifically parenting support and education, can provide guidance and support for parents, helping them navigate the challenges of parenting and develop effective strategies for managing common difficulties. Whether you're a new parent or an experienced one facing new challenges, a licensed mental health professional can provide support and guidance towards a more positive and fulfilling parenting experience.

Markham is one of the most ethnically Chinese cities in North America outside of East Asia, with a majority Chinese 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, Apple, 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.
