North York, Ontario therapist: Lia Khalili, registered psychotherapist
Autism

Lia Khalili

Registered Psychotherapist, Registered Psychotherapist (RP)
At Bright Start Bright Future Counselling Centre, we provide compassionate, neurodiversity-affirming care for children, youth, and adults on the Autism spectrum (including what was traditionally diagnosed as Asperger's). Drawing on over 20 years of clinical experience, my approach focuses on celebrating unique cognitive profiles while providing practical, evidence-based tools to navigate a world that is often not built for neurodivergent minds. For autistic children and youth, challenges often manifest around school transitions, sensory processing overload, social communication, and intense emotional regulation hurdles. In our sessions, I integrate specialized play-based techniques, creative art therapy, and tailored Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) skills. This allows young clients to safely explore social dynamics, build self-regulation strategies, and reduce the deep exhaustion caused by social masking. We also work closely with families through parent coaching to create supportive, predictable home environments that minimize meltdowns and reinforce communication. For adult individuals on the spectrum, our focus shifts to mastery over executive dysfunction, cultivating relationships, and navigating major life transitions with confidence. Let's work together to unlock your or your child's full potential—contact me today for a free 15-minute consultation.

Whitby, Ontario therapist: Justin Mulder, registered psychotherapist
Autism

Justin Mulder

Registered Psychotherapist, M.A., Registered Psychotherapist
I work with autistic clients from a neurodiversity-affirming perspective. That means therapy isn’t about trying to make you appear more “typical,” but about understanding how your mind processes the world and building a life that actually supports that. We might explore things like sensory overwhelm, burnout, masking, communication differences, or the exhaustion that can come from constantly adapting to environments that weren’t designed with you in mind. If you’ve spent a lot of time feeling like you have to push yourself to fit into spaces that don’t quite fit you, therapy can be a place where you finally get to work from the assumption that your way of being makes sense.

Pickering, Ontario therapist: Paighe Rojas, registered social worker
Autism

Paighe Rojas

Registered Social Worker, MSW, RSW
You deserve support that respects your neurotype—not therapy that tries to “fix” who you are. We can work on sensory overwhelm, burnout, social fatigue, masking, boundaries, and self-advocacy in a way that feels practical and affirming. Together, we’ll build strategies that make daily life easier while protecting your energy and identity.

Vaughan, Ontario therapist: Haimove Amir, registered psychotherapist
Autism

Haimove Amir

Registered Psychotherapist, psychotherapist
I provide individualized, neurodiversity-informed support for autistic children, teens, and adults, including individuals who identify with or have previously been diagnosed with Asperger's syndrome. My approach focuses on understanding the person rather than defining them by a diagnosis. Therapy may address communication, emotional regulation, anxiety, social relationships, self-confidence, sensory experiences, daily challenges, and family relationships. With children, I may use play-based and creative approaches to support communication and emotional expression. I also work with parents and families to better understand their child's strengths and needs and develop practical strategies that support connection, confidence, and meaningful participation in everyday life.
