Mind Path Therapy
Therapist, MSW, RSW
Psychotherapy should be more than identifying symptoms and applying a one-size-fits-all method. My approach is collaborative and integrative, grounded in a holistic assessment that sees you in the full context of your life. That means paying close attention to your experiences, creating a mutual understanding of where the pain lies, and developing the insights and skills that will empower you to move forward toward the relationships and goals that matter most to you. I bring decades of experience as a social worker and psychotherapist working with diverse clients and cultures, and offer a warm, non-judgmental space where real and lasting change becomes possible.

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.

Psychologist, Ph.D.

Additionally, I am a member of the Ontario Psychological Association and the American Psychological Association. I provide psychological services to the adult client population in-person as well as online through Owlpractice, a virtual platform for providing care virtually.
I follow an integrative treatment approach including Cognitive Behavior Therapy and Dialectical Behavior Therapy. Intervention includes evidence-based treatment plans and empirically proven techniques. The focus of the treatment is on empowering the client with an adaptive thinking style and more effective coping skills to deal with symptoms and the surrounding environment. The goal of the treatment is to the enhancement of well-being and improve experience of overall quality of life.
I value my clients with their individual strengths and struggles. I actively engage with clients to reflect on their successes and challenges and rebuild their belief in their strengths and expand them further. I value a multicultural perspective and respect for diverse cultural backgrounds. The initial session is generally an intake assessment dedicated to understanding the case history/life story and for the purpose of diagnosis of the problem. Subsequently, treatment goals are collaboratively determined, and a treatment plan is tailored considering specific life situations, struggles, stressors, and personal strengths of the client.

Vaughan is one of Canada's fastest-growing cities and part of the Greater Toronto Area's northern expansion, with a large Italian-Canadian community alongside growing South Asian, Chinese, and Middle Eastern populations creating a diverse and evolving therapy demand. The city's relative newness as a major population center means its private therapy infrastructure is still developing, and many residents access care in Toronto or through telehealth. Mackenzie Health's Cortellucci Vaughan Hospital — one of Canada's newest major hospitals — provides institutional resources, and the broader GTA ecosystem of therapists is accessible for those willing to travel or use online platforms. Vaughan's affluent suburban character means therapy is financially accessible for many, though stigma barriers in some cultural communities remain a consideration.
