Lia Khalili
Registered Psychotherapist, Registered Psychotherapist (RP)
At Bright Start Bright Future Counselling Centre, I specialize in providing compassionate support and effective therapy for individuals with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) and Asperger's syndrome. My approach to autism and Asperger's therapy is highly individualized, focusing on each person's strengths, needs, and goals. I create a safe and supportive environment where individuals can express themselves freely and explore their emotions and experiences without judgment. Using evidence-based practices such as Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA), social skills training, cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), and sensory integration techniques, I help individuals with autism and Asperger's develop essential life skills, improve social interactions, and manage sensory sensitivities. I work closely with clients, families, and other support professionals to create comprehensive treatment plans that address the unique needs of each individual. My priority is building self-esteem, fostering independence, and promoting positive relationships to help individuals with autism and Asperger's lead fulfilling and meaningful lives. Whether you're seeking support for yourself or a loved one with autism or Asperger's, I'm here to help. Contact me today to learn more about my specialized therapy services and take the first step towards a brighter future.

Autism and Asperger's
Rebecca Goldstein, TuneinTherapy, ADHD | Trauma | Autism
Registered Social Worker, RSW, MSW, MTA, BMT, FAMI
Being autistic often means navigating a world that may feel overwhelming, confusing, exhausting, or built for someone else.
Many autistic individuals have spent years feeling misunderstood, pressured to mask, or wondering why things that seem manageable for others can feel so much harder.
Along with professional experience, I bring personal understanding of neurodivergence. My approach is affirming, practical, and grounded in helping you better understand yourself, reduce shame, understand and advocate for your needs, and build a life that actually works for you.
