Honouring Your Culture & Heritage
Richmond Hill is one of Canada’s most vibrant and diverse communities, with over 60% of residents identifying as immigrants and more than half of our neighbors belonging to a visible minority group. We recognize that for a significant portion of our local population, including Richmond Hill’s 20,000 Farsi-speaking community members, traditional Western therapy models don't always capture the full picture needed to help First and Second-Generation Canadians.
​
At Dawn Therapy, we provide specialized support for newcomers, children and families of immigrantion, and the broader diaspora community. With a team of clinicians from a wide range of cultural backgrounds, we ensure you don’t have to act as your therapist's educator on the significance of your culture's dynamics before you can begin to heal.
Nutrition Counselling & Dietitian Services
The mind and body do not operate in isolation; what affects the nervous system impacts our relationship with food, and what we feed our bodies directly shapes our mental vitality. At Dawn Therapy, our Registered Dietitians (RD) provide patient-centered, evidence-based nutritional care tailored to your unique history, mental health, and lifestyle goals. We specialize in non-diet approaches to disordered eating, clinical gut health (IBS), and lifestyle informed nutrition guidance.
