Dr. Niloufar M Pour

For over a decade, I’ve had the privilege of supporting clients as they navigate their personal journeys of growth and healing. Working with individuals, couples, and families from diverse cultural backgrounds has only reinforced my belief that everyone carries profound, often hidden insights about themselves just waiting to be discovered.

My therapeutic toolkit is diverse and comprehensive. I am certified in Reality Therapy®, advanced-trained in Emotionally Focused Therapy and Ego State Therapy, and well-versed in Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, and Schema Therapy. This integrative approach and a systemic viewpoint enable me to help clients make empowered, value-driven choices in life’s most challenging moments. My expertise extends to relationship coaching, premarital counselling, and divorce support. I have also conducted group therapy sessions focused on enhancing emotional bonding and addressing women’s emotional well-being and relationships.

My therapeutic approach is shaped by my extensive training in psychology and enriched by Persian wisdom. As a fluent speaker of both English and Farsi, I effectively bridge cultural gaps, providing culturally sensitive care that resonates with diverse backgrounds. I integrate principles of positive psychology with the systemic perspective to support clients in their growth journey, viewing individuals as part of larger systems – families, communities, and cultures. This approach is particularly valuable when working with couples and families navigating cultural adaptation and conflict resolution.

As a Registered Psychotherapist with The College of Registered Psychotherapists of Ontario, I am committed to ongoing professional development. My unique background, including a Ph.D. in Counselling Psychology and a Master’s in Family Therapy, allows me to bring a multidisciplinary perspective to my work, offering clients a holistic and tailored therapeutic experience.
