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 great step in accessing support when struggling during pregnancy or the postpartum period. It also provides a safe space to acknowledge your difficulties. 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.

Sanofer Ansari
Licensed Mental Health Counsellor, MACP
Approach: Trauma-informed, emotion-focused and CBT-informed support.
I provide space to explore changes in identity, overwhelm, guilt, relationship stress, adjustment, and mood following childbirth. Because postpartum mental health concerns can require medical assessment, collaboration with the client's physician or perinatal healthcare provider is encouraged.

Bonny Kaman Li
Counsellor/Therapist, Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying), MACP
Postpartum depression support helps new parents through the unexpected grief, anxiety, or disconnection that can come alongside the joy that's "supposed" to be there. I support new parents in processing this transition with compassion and without judgment about what they "should" be feeling.

Mindful Connections Therapy
Registered Psychotherapist
Everyone told you this would be the happiest time of your life, which makes the sadness, rage, numbness, or frightening thoughts feel impossible to say out loud. You're not failing, and you're not alone: what you're experiencing is common, treatable, and nothing to be ashamed of. Here you'll find a warm, nonjudgmental space to tell the truth about how motherhood actually feels, tend to your own needs without guilt, and find your footing. The goal isn't just to get through the day, it's to genuinely reconnect with yourself, build support that sustains you, and make room for both the hard and the tender parts of this season. Together we'll work toward feeling more grounded, more supported, and more connected to yourself and your baby.

Mind By Design®
Registered Psychotherapist, Psychology and Coaching Clinics
Although it is normal to have what is colloquially known as the “baby blues” following the birth of a child, this tends to naturally go away not too long after. PPD can start during the pregnancy to one year after the birth of a child, where the sufferer will show the typical effects of depression which affects their mood; the way they feel about themselves, how they relate to others, and how they interact with the rest of the world. Ultimately, PPD affects people from many different walks of life, regardless of the ease or difficulty of the pregnancy, whether they are a first-time parent or have other children, whether they are married or not, and regardless of socioeconomic status, education, and cultural background.

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.
