About
Maryam Akhshi
Registered Psychotherapist
Registration Number 18360, College of Registered Psychotherapists of Ontario
As a Registered Psychotherapist, I work with adults and couples who are ready to look both at what's happening now and what lies beneath the surface — not just to cope temporarily, but to gain real clarity and carry that growth into other parts of life. I don't focus on symptoms alone; I take a holistic view of who you are as a person and what's really going on underneath.
Sessions with me are dynamic and unscripted — nothing is off-limits, nothing follows a rigid template, and we move at your pace. The goal is to build capacity and acceptance where change isn't possible, and create change where it is — so you can finally feel relief.
If you're feeling stuck — anxious, burnt out, grieving, caught in relationship conflict, weighed down by a harsh inner critic, depressed, lost, unable to make decisions, or simply not at peace with yourself, your past, or the people around you — let's figure it out together. I also have extensive experience helping couples strengthen their emotional bond, communicate more openly, and move through challenges and transitions together.
My approach draws on relational-analytical work, psychodynamic therapy, EFT, Schema Therapy, CBT, the Gottman Method, and ACT — layered with a background in both clinical psychology and neuroscience. Sessions are open and reflective, sometimes challenging in the moment but ultimately freeing. My style is very direct and honest, yet warm, blending deep inquiry with clear goals so insight can become a lasting change. I bring genuine cultural sensitivity and respect for diverse perspectives into every session, and offer therapy in both English and Farsi.
