I am a Psychological Associate registered with the College of Psychologists and Behaviour Analysts of Ontario (CPBAO). I specialize in clinical psychology with adults and provide psychological assessment and evidence‑based treatment for a wide range of concerns, including post‑traumatic stress disorder, traumatic stress, depression, bipolar disorder, anxiety disorders, obsessive‑compulsive disorder, insomnia, addictions, personality disorders, and difficulties related to relationships, assertiveness, stress, burnout, and anger management.

I have extensive experience using Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) in both hospital and private practice settings, and I have received additional training in Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Motivational Interviewing (MI), and mindfulness‑based interventions.

My approach is collaborative and client‑centred, grounded firmly in evidence‑based practice. I integrate elements of CBT, DBT, ACT, and mindfulness to meet the unique needs of each individual. I strive to be compassionate, supportive, and straightforward while fostering a safe, respectful, and non‑judgmental environment where clients can work toward meaningful and lasting change. My goal is to help clients reduce distress, build resilience, and improve their overall quality of life through personalized, evidence‑based care.

I currently offer both virtual and in‑person therapy services to residents across Ontario.

Professional Philosophy

Therapy is a collaborative process built on trust, compassion, and evidence-based care. Clement Ampong’s goal is to provide a safe, non-judgmental space where you can openly discuss your concerns and feel supported throughout the process. During our work together, we will identify clear goals, understand the patterns that may be keeping you stuck, and develop practical tools to help you move forward with greater confidence and emotional well-being.

I am a psychologist who works with adults experiencing a wide range of concerns, including anxiety, depression, OCD, trauma, stress, adjustment difficulties, relationship challenges, and life transitions. I know that reaching out for support can feel vulnerable, and I strive to create a warm, compassionate, and non-judgmental space where clients feel safe to be themselves and explore what they are going through. I work both in person and virtually and welcome clients from diverse cultural and personal backgrounds.

My approach to therapy is collaborative and grounded in evidence-based treatments, including Cognitive-Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), and Mindfulness-Based therapies. I believe that therapy is not only about managing symptoms, but also about developing a deeper understanding of yourself, strengthening resilience, and creating a life that feels more meaningful and aligned with your values. I tailor therapy to each client’s unique experiences, needs, and goals, and aim to help clients feel supported, empowered, and understood throughout the process.

Outside of work, I enjoy spending time in nature, reading, and appreciating the small moments of calm and balance that everyday life can offer.

I am a Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying) with the College of Registered Psychotherapists of Ontario. My training and experiences as a medical graduate and academic researcher have led me to develop a holistic approach to therapy.

I support clients that are experiencing anxiety, depression, burnout, chronic disease management, emotional regulation, grief/loss, health related anxiety, insomnia, internet addiction, relationship issues, stress, and substance use. I have experience working with healthcare professionals, college/university students, and individuals of South Asian backgrounds.

I support individuals by drawing from modalities such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Solution-Focused Brief Therapy, Narrative Therapy, Mindfulness, and Motivational Interviewing. I am available for both virtual and in-person sessions.

Hi! I’m Shanuja, a Registered Psychotherapist (RP) with the College of Registered Psychotherapists of Ontario (CRPO). I offer in-person and virtual therapy, with a particular focus on supporting young adults navigating anxiety, self-esteem, and interpersonal issues.

I understand that therapy can feel intimidating, especially if you’ve spent most of your life prioritizing the needs of others, minimizing your emotions, or feeling caught between different values and expectations. My goal is to create a warm and non-judgmental space where clients can feel safe exploring their thoughts, emotions, and experiences at their own pace.

My approach to therapy is culturally sensitive, collaborative, and compassionate. I draw from Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), and Narrative Therapy, to help clients better understand patterns in their emotions, relationships, and self-perception while also developing practical tools to navigate day-to-day challenges. Above all, I want clients to feel that they do not have to navigate their experiences alone.

Outside of therapy, I enjoy traveling, spending time in nature, exploring cozy cafés, and learning tennis.

Dr. Abolfazl Mohammadi, PhD., C. Psych. Clinical Psychologist

I’m a registered Clinical Psychologist with the College of Psychologists and Behaviour Analysts of Ontario (CPBAO), and I feel genuinely grateful to do this work. Supporting people in understanding themselves, navigating challenges, and creating meaningful change is not just my profession—it’s something I deeply value.

My approach is collaborative, practical, and grounded in evidence-based care. I primarily draw on Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) and newer generations of CBT, to help individuals better understand and respond to their thoughts, emotions, and behaviours. Therapy with me is not distant or overly clinical—it’s a supportive, respectful space where we work together to build insight, develop skills, and create meaningful change.

I believe that our thoughts, emotions, and behaviours are shaped by a complex interaction of past experiences, social, and current life demands. Sometimes, patterns that once helped us cope can begin to limit us. In therapy, we work together to identify these patterns, understand their function, and gradually shift them in a way that aligns with your goals and values.

In addition to psychotherapy, I offer comprehensive psychological assessment services, including diagnostic clarification and adult ADHD assessments, to support treatment planning and a deeper understanding of your needs.

I offer both in-person and virtual services in English, Farsi, and Azari, and I value working with individuals from diverse cultural backgrounds. Outside of my professional work, I enjoy traveling and learning new languages, which continues to shape my appreciation for different perspectives and ways of understanding the world.
