English, Hindi, Punjabi, and Urdu (varies by therapist). You're welcome to move between languages during a session. Sometimes that's where the feeling actually lives.

You don't need to write a lot. A sentence or two about what's bringing you here is plenty. We'll dig in once we talk. If you've been in therapy before, it can also help to mention what worked or didn't.
Frequently asked
Before you reach out: the things people usually ask.
Is the 20-minute consultation actually free?
Yes. No charge, no obligation. The point is to figure out together whether we're a fit before you commit. If we're not, no follow-up pressure.
How quickly will you respond?
Within two business days. If you don't hear back, please check your spam folder, or feel free to call.
What makes Rahao different from other practices?
The cultural fluency is the main one. You don't translate your family, language, or context for your therapist. The other is approach: our work is attachment-based, which means we work with the root patterns underneath what's happening now, not just the surface symptoms. Our therapists integrate other modalities (CBT, DBT, mindfulness) as needed.
Do you take insurance?
Every session comes with a receipt for insurance reimbursement. We don't bill insurers directly. Many Ontario extended health plans cover Registered Psychotherapists (RP); coverage for RP (Qualifying) varies by plan. The best way to check is to call your insurance provider and ask what your plan covers.

How often do most clients meet?
Most people start weekly and shift to bi-weekly as the work settles. Couples often start weekly too. There's no required cadence. We figure out what your nervous system can hold and adjust as we go.
How long does therapy last?
There's no fixed timeline. Some clients work with us for 3 months around a specific issue. Many stay much longer because the work is deeper and the patterns we're shifting are old. Therapy ends when you don't need it anymore. We get there together.
Are sessions virtual?
Yes. Every session happens over a secure video link, so you can meet from anywhere in Ontario, wherever you feel most comfortable.
Who do you usually work with?
Teens, adults, couples and families, many from South Asian backgrounds, though we work with anyone the fit is right with. Common themes include:
- Anxiety, depression, and trauma (including childhood trauma)
- Separation, divorce, and life transitions
- Eldest daughter / parentified-child dynamics
- Attachment patterns in relationships (anxious / avoidant)
- Joint family and in-law tension
- Intercultural & interfaith couples
- Cultural and religious identity reclamation
Is this a fit if I'm not South Asian?
Yes. The cultural context shapes how we work, but the approach (attachment-based, root-focused, slow and grounded) works for anyone open to it. The consultation is the right place to figure out together if it's a match.
Do you offer crisis or urgent support?
Therapy with us is not a crisis service. If you're in immediate crisis or thinking about hurting yourself, please call 9-8-8 (Canada's Suicide Crisis Helpline) or go to your nearest emergency room. We can support ongoing work that includes managing crisis patterns, but we can't be the first call in a real emergency.
