Sanofer Ansari
Licensed Mental Health Counsellor, MACP
Approach: CBT, emotion-focused therapy, motivational interviewing-informed and mindfulness-based strategies.
I explore the emotional and behavioural factors that may influence eating, activity, motivation, and weight-related goals. Therapy may address emotional eating, stress, self-esteem, body image, habits, and all-or-nothing thinking while helping clients develop realistic and sustainable behavioural changes. The focus is on overall well-being rather than shame or appearance alone.

Therapy can help you explore the emotional and behavioural patterns connected to food, movement, and self-care. The goal is to support sustainable change without judgment, pressure, or shame.

Nora Taylor, MA, RP
Registered Psychotherapist, Master of Arts in Counselling Psychology 1994
Weight gain can affect our sense of self and how we feel about ourselves. It's important to visit your doctor to rule out any medical reason; it also can involve developing a healthy lifestyle that supports your goals; as I am writing I realize it is not always so simple; can involve past losses, trauma, depression.

Manisha Grewal
Counsellor/Therapist, BA (Hons), MA, Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying)
I specialize in supporting sustainable weight loss through a holistic, integrative approach: we use acceptance and commitment therapy to align your goals with your core values, mindfulness practices to foster intuitive eating and body awareness, and parts work to address internal barriers to change. Cognitive-behavioral strategies help reshape unhelpful thoughts around food and self-image, while emotion-focused techniques allow you to process emotional eating triggers. When meaningful, I draw on spiritual/existential approaches to connect you with deeper motivation and self-compassion. Together, we’ll create practical tools, healthy habits, and an empowering mindset to guide you toward lasting wellness.

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.
