My journey into Naturopathic Medicine began in my early adolescent years, after seeing a Naturopath for the first time. It was the first healthcare experience in which I truly felt heard, and it opened my eyes to the impact of individualized, patient-centred care. From that moment, I knew I wanted to become a Naturopathic Doctor. I became increasingly drawn to the intersection of naturopathic medicine and mental health, an area that has remained a strong passion of mine. My goal is to empower patients to regain control of their physical and mental well-being through a holistic, evidence-based approach. I have experience in treating a wide range of mental health concerns and work closely with patients to identify goals and create a plan to achieve them. My approach prioritizes education, focusing on optimizing diet, sleep, movement, and other lifestyle factors. I also utilize nutritional supplementation, botanical medicine and acupuncture to help reach identified goals. When needed, I incorporate laboratory testing to help guide treatment. I hold a Bachelor of Science and a Doctor of Naturopathic Medicine. I am a member of the College of Naturopaths of Ontario, the Ontario Association of Naturopathic Doctors, and the Canadian Association of Naturopathic Doctors.

Hello, I am Ahmad and I am a Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying). I am a part-time employee at Rush & Associates Psychotherapy and Wellness.

My philosophic approach is client-centered, where safety, trust, and confidentiality are the pillars of the therapeutic relationship. I do provide psychotherapy in both English and Arabic (all dialects), and work with adults, teenagers, couples, and families. My areas of expertise include, but are not limited to: anxiety, depression, self-esteem, life transitional challenges, couples & family, trauma, substance abuse, grief, and attachment. I believe that to best address mental health challenges it is beneficial to draw strengths from various therapeutic approaches in a fashion tailored specifically to each individual client, ensuring the client’s benefits and therapeutic goals at the heart of the process. I understand that although psychotherapy is essential for our individual wellbeing, but it can be financially straining. As such, I do offer a free-of-charge 30-minute intake session. Additionally, I do offer sliding-scale rates to allow everyone better accessibility to this essential service regardless of the financial situation.

I approach each client as an individual with the desire to provide them comfort by approaching their issues holistically. Then, in collaboration with the client, I am able to identify and agree upon the therapeutic process that is attuned to their specific issues, needs, and what they desire to achieve from therapy. I strive to create a safe, welcoming, and comfortable environment and value the importance of the therapeutic relationship so they can move forward with ease.

I also have experience in treating obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD), borderline personality disorder (BPD), relationship distress, loss and grief, managing anger, and treating individuals with terminal illnesses and caregivers. As a couple’s therapist, I have helped couples with sex and intimacy issues, rebuild trust, strengthen attachment, improve communication and conflict resolution, and better understand relationship dynamics. Before becoming a Psychotherapist, I spent over a decade working as an Organizational Psychologist, where I gained experience counseling employees regarding job performance, career-related issues, and workplace skills.

More than my work:

I was fortunate to grow up in an open and equitable environment that inspired individuality while providing the protection and sense of security of a collective environment. This helped me relate to Herman Hesse’s saying, “Within you, there is a stillness and a sanctuary to which you can retreat at any time and be yourself.” Varied dance forms and music from around the world have attracted me since a young age, bringing me peace and joy. I also love cooking, yoga and meditation. These are aspects of my inner sanctuary.

I approach each client as an individual with the desire to provide them comfort by approaching th... Read More
