Samantha Mirarchi | Wild Sage Therapy
Registered Social Worker, MSW, RSW
Life in your 20s and 30s can feel EXHAUSTING, like no matter how hard you try, you're spinning your wheels and can't seem to catch a break. You're tired, anxious, overwhelmed, and questioning how you even got here.
Maybe a big change recently flipped your world upside down, like a breakup, move, job shift, or family situation that brought everything to the surface. Or maybe it's been building for a while. You’re feeling stuck, anxious, depressed, unfulfilled, and noticing the same patterns repeating themselves again and again.
You’re ready for something different. You're ready to dig deeper, understand yourself on a new level, and start creating patterns that actually move you forward. We’re here to help you do just that.

Maddie (Matin) Motamed
Registered Psychotherapist, Master's in Counselling Psychology and Psychotherapy
Seeking support is an act of strength. If you are experiencing anxiety disorders, mood disorders, depression, ADHD, trauma, PTSD, borderline personality disorder, or are recovering from narcissistic abuse, you do not have to face it alone. Therapy offers a space to slow down, understand emotional and relational patterns, and heal unresolved wounds through approaches such as inner child work and reparenting.
I specialize in working with survivors of narcissistic abuse and high-conflict, emotionally abusive relationships. I support men, women, and LGBTQ+ individuals, as well as individuals who have been in narcissistic relationships, to engage in rebuilding self-trust, restoring boundaries, and recovering from chronic invalidation, gaslighting, and emotional manipulation. My work also focuses on trauma, personality dynamics, anxiety, mood disorders, and attachment wounds.
My therapeutic approach integrates CBT, DBT, Psychodynamic Therapy, Relational Therapy, ACT, Mindfulness, and Solution-Focused approaches, offering a supportive space for those who often feel misunderstood or overlooked.
I also provide free virtual psychotherapy for refugees, asylum seekers, and protected persons covered under IFHP. Services are trauma-informed and culturally sensitive, supporting individuals impacted by war, displacement, adjustment disorders, anxiety, depression, and resettlement stress. Psychotherapy is available in English and Farsi.
Your diagnosis or past experiences do not define you. Healing and growth are possible, and your story matters.

Bonny Kaman Li
Counsellor/Therapist, Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying), MACP
I believe therapy should be a place where people feel safe enough to slow down, reflect, and reconnect with themselves—often for the first time in a long while. Many individuals come to therapy carrying invisible burdens: unprocessed trauma, chronic stress, cultural or family expectations, or the exhaustion of always having to hold it together.
My work is grounded in a trauma-informed, emotion-focused approach that honours each person’s lived experience, cultural context, and nervous system. I integrate evidence-based modalities such as Internal Family Systems (IFS), EMDR, and somatic-based interventions to help clients understand their emotional patterns, heal from past experiences, and develop practical strategies for daily life.
I value collaboration, transparency, and respect in the therapeutic relationship. Therapy is not about fixing or forcing change, but about creating the conditions for clarity, resilience, and self-trust to emerge. My goal is to support clients in building a more grounded, compassionate relationship with themselves and moving forward with greater confidence and emotional balance.

Kalyna Scherbluk
Registered Psychotherapist, RP, Qualifying
Do you feel overwhelmed by your emotions, stuck in patterns that no longer serve you, or unsure of who you are anymore? Maybe you're navigating anxiety, depression, low self-worth, or relationship challenges. You might feel lost in transition—grappling with a recent change, a difficult past, or trying to break free from behaviours that leave you feeling disconnected. These emotions can be heavy and confusing, and it’s okay if you’re not sure where to start. I’m here to help you make sense of what you're feeling and why. Therapy with me offers a compassionate, person-centred space where your story is honoured and explored with curiosity, not judgment. With training in Emotion-Focused Therapy, Attachment-Based, CBT, DBT, and Narrative Therapy, I offer an integrative, trauma-informed approach tailored to your needs. Together, we’ll explore the roots of your struggles, increase self-understanding, and work toward the emotional clarity and change you're seeking. You don’t have to carry these feelings alone. Whether you're navigating life transitions, feeling anxious or emotionally stuck, or looking to strengthen your sense of self and relationships, we can explore this together. Reach out to discuss how I can support you.

Richmond Hill is a rapidly growing Toronto suburb in York Region with a majority Chinese population in many of its newer residential developments, alongside significant South Asian and Middle Eastern communities, creating strong demand for Mandarin-, Cantonese-, and Farsi-speaking therapists who can work within East Asian and Iranian cultural frameworks. The city's affluent suburban character and proximity to Toronto's tech and finance economy create a population with both the means and motivation to seek therapy, though help-seeking stigma in some East Asian and Middle Eastern communities remains a consideration. Mackenzie Health provides institutional mental health resources, with many residents also accessing the broader Greater Toronto Area therapy ecosystem. Richmond Hill's fast growth and relatively new development mean community ties can be shallow, and therapists frequently address social isolation and the challenge of belonging in a transient suburban environment.
