Psychotherapists
Individual Psychotherapy at The Growth & Wellness Therapy Centre can give you the chance to process your experiences and make shifts at your own pace and in a supportive environment. Our clinicians use their skills and evidence-informed best practices to personalize your experience and focus on meeting your goals.
Our individual psychotherapists are trained to support clients around a variety of issues, and our focus on finding you the right fit means we encourage you to book consults with as many clinicians as you need to find that fit. And if our office doesn’t have a clinician that feels right for you, we’re happy to provide outside referrals to help you find a match.
Take a look at all of our individual psychotherapists below to get an idea of the modalities they use and the issues they have experience providing support around, and if you need help finding the right fit you can reach out to us at the office and we’ll help find a match!
