Child and Parent Therapy
Nasser Yousefi
Phd in Educational Psychology
My name is Nasser Yousefi. I am a child and adolescent counselor, a senior specialist in humanistic education, and a children’s literature author. I hold a degree in Clinical Psychology from Iran and a PhD in Educational Psychology from the United States. For more than 30 years, I have worked alongside children, adolescents, and families, supporting emotional growth, stronger communication, and healthier relationships at home. Many parents come to me feeling worried or unsure about how to support their child , whether they are facing anxiety, behavioral challenges, emotional withdrawal, or the pressures of growing up in today’s world. I want parents to know they are not alone. My work is grounded in humanistic psychology, which means I focus on empathy, respect, and emotional connection. I believe children grow best when they feel seen, understood, and safe. Parenting, in my view, is not about control, but about companionship and growth. Over the years, I have also collaborated with organizations such as UNICEF and UNESCO in the areas of early childhood education and promoting a culture of peace. Working with families from diverse cultural backgrounds , including immigrant parents raising children between two worlds , has given me a deep appreciation for the challenges families face today. My goal is to help children grow into secure and emotionally healthy human beings, and to support parents in feeling more confident and connected along the way
Reyhaneh Sheikh
Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying)
If you are a parent dealing with anxiety, self-doubt, and the feeling of struggling to hold everything together, you are in the right place. You might be navigating parenting (or single parenting), ADHD, or burnout while trying to make sense of neurodivergence in yourself or your family. I support women, parents, and teens who feel overwhelmed, stuck, or stretched thin, and want more clarity, emotional balance, and a steadier way of moving through daily life. As a Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying) and MA in Counselling Psychology student under clinical supervision, I understand how daily life can feel heavy when navigating parenting and neurodivergence in both yourself and your children. My work is relational and psychodynamic, exploring how early experiences, family dynamics, and diagnosis or underdiagnosis shape emotional patterns. Together, we build insight, regulate overwhelm, and create more sustainable ways of relating to yourself and others. My work is trauma informed and culturally sensitive.
Identity, Gender, and Sexuality
Mina Esfandiari
Registered Psychotherapist
I support adults, adolescents, new parents, and queer and trans clients navigating trauma, identity, relationships, and life transitions. My clinical work is rooted in depth-oriented, psychodynamic, and trauma-informed psychotherapy, with a focus on prenatal and postpartum mental health, LGBTQIA2S+ mental health, PTSD, C-PTSD, religious trauma, anxiety, depression, relationship conflicts, workplace burnout, and identity exploration. I hold a B.Sc. and M.A. in Clinical Psychology, as well as a second M.A. in Gender and Social Justice. I also completed a two-year online training program in Modern Psychoanalysis and adolescent mental health through the Center for Modern Psychoanalytic Studies in New York. I strive to hold cultural humility at the centre of the therapeutic work, with attention to how identity, culture, power, and systemic oppression shape each person’s lived experience.
Coaching and Personal Development
Natasha Shokri
Phd in Social Justice
Natasha Shokri is a mental health and well-being practitioner, professional coach, educator, happiness researcher, conflict-resolution specialist, and co-founder of Sokoot, a social justice–informed mental health initiative. Her work is grounded in the understanding that emotional well-being is shaped not only by individual experiences, but also by relationships, identity, culture, migration, conflict, displacement, and social conditions. Natasha is a PhD Candidate at the University of Toronto, where her research explores mental-wellbeing, resilience, resistance, and human flourishing. She holds a master from the United Nations–mandated University for Peace and has completed professional coaching training through the World Happiness Academy. She is also a member of the World Happiness Foundation. Her approach combines social justice–informed, trauma-aware, anti-oppressive, culturally responsive, strength-based, and conflict-sensitive perspectives. Drawing on her professional coaching training, Natasha incorporates Neuro-Linguistic Programming (NLP) techniques to help clients recognize unhelpful patterns, reframe limiting narratives, strengthen communication, and develop more intentional responses. She supports clients in deepening self-awareness, strengthening relationships, understanding their emotions, making meaningful decisions, and reconnecting with personal agency and purpose. Her approach emphasizes reflection, understanding, empowerment, openness, and sustainable personal growth. Natasha is also trained in the Meta Pets Method, an archetypal and reflective approach that uses symbolism, narrative, creativity, and the exploration of the Shadow, Gift, and Essence to help individuals recognize less-visible emotions and patterns. Rather than treating difficult aspects of the self as problems to eliminate, this approach helps clients understand and transform them into sources of insight, strength, and meaningful action. Having lived and worked across the Middle East, Southeast Asia, and North America, Natasha brings a globally informed and culturally responsive perspective to her practice. Her experience includes working with United Nations–affiliated initiatives, international non-governmental organizations, human-rights institutions, and peace-building organizations. As a UNESCO Youth Peace Ambassador, she has facilitated programs and contributed to international initiatives focused on peace education, human rights, intercultural understanding, and community development. These experiences have deepened her understanding of how political conflict, forced displacement, systemic injustice, and cultural transition can shape emotional well-being. Natasha is particularly passionate about supporting newcomers, refugees, human-rights advocates, racialized individuals, and people from war- and conflict-affected communities. Natasha creates compassionate and reflective spaces where clients can explore their experiences without judgment, reconnect with their strengths, and develop personally meaningful pathways toward healing and well-being. Her work honours both the individual and the wider world in which healing takes place.
Pari Soleimani
Holistic Mind-Body Life Coach
I’m certified in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Neuroscience Coaching, Holistic Nutrition, and Lifestyle Medicine. My approach is both scientific and deeply human — grounded in brain-based methods, yet guided by mindfulness, nature, and authentic self-connection. I believe the way we think, move, eat, and breathe can reshape the brain and the way we experience life. Through awareness of your neural patterns, emotional responses, and body signals, I help you rewire your mind toward less stress, more focus, and a deeper sense of balance and clarity. Five years ago, my own journey began — a period marked by anxiety and depression that became the doorway to everything I now teach and practice. It taught me that healing isn’t about perfection or speed; it’s about learning to listen — to your mind, your body, and the quiet wisdom of nature. In my coaching, we focus on building meaningful routines and positive habits that help you rediscover your rhythm and create a life that feels true to your unique path. Whether it’s finding purpose, managing stress, or reconnecting with your natural flow — I’m here to walk beside you with compassion and curiosity. When I’m not coaching, you’ll find me dancing under sunlight, walking in nature, or curled up with a good book. For me, joy, movement, and connection to nature aren’t just hobbies, they’re essential parts of healing and being fully alive.
