I'm a registered social worker, and my approach is centered on collaboration — what matters most is how we work together.
Mo Alharoun, MSW, RSW
I believe that a strong, trusting relationship is at the core of meaningful therapy. My role is to understand what you want from therapy and how I can best support you.
In my previous work as a lawyer, my clients often suffered the effects of structural inequalities that legal solutions alone couldn't address. This led me to pursue social work, where I could focus on offering deeper support to individuals facing these challenges.
I've also worked with many individuals around the impacts of a mental health concern or disability as a counsellor at a university's accessibility services. Many of the clients I've worked with shared their late stage diagnosis around their mental health (anxiety, depression) or neurodivergence (such as ADHD, autism, and AuDHD).
As someone who grew up in different countries, I bring a broad perspective to understanding what impacts you. Rather than viewing individuals in a vacuum, I use an approach that considers all the relationships in your life as well as the influence of systemic issues. That includes you in any of your relationships (romantic, friendship, and family) and with society or even different cultures.
I draw from a variety of therapeutic approaches, including Emotion-Focused Therapy (EFT), Narrative Therapy, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavioural Therapy (DBT), and Solution-Focused Therapy (SFT). But ultimately, it's not about the modality — it's about what works best for you.

Approach, fit, fees, and how to reach him specifically.
Collaborative. In his words: “what matters most is how we work together.” He treats the relationship between the two of you as the working part of therapy, and he starts by understanding what you want out of it rather than applying a fixed protocol.
He draws on Emotion-Focused Therapy (EFT), Narrative Therapy, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavioural Therapy (DBT), and Solution-Focused Therapy (SFT), and he moves between them based on what's working for you. He also looks past the individual: your relationships (romantic, friendship, family) and the systemic pressures around you are treated as part of the picture, not background noise.
Yes. Mo worked as a counsellor at a university's accessibility services, supporting people through the impacts of a mental health concern or disability. Many of those clients were processing a late-stage diagnosis — anxiety, depression, or neurodivergence such as ADHD, autism, and AuDHD.
That means the late-diagnosis conversation is familiar ground: the re-reading of your own history, the self-doubt, the question of what accommodation actually looks like at work or at school. Our ADHD therapy page covers that work in more depth.
An individual 50-minute session with Mo is $170. The student rate is $130. The 15-minute consultation call is free.
