About Us
We are re-imagining the way
services are accessed.
Shaping the future
From how to find culturally sensitive services, to what type of services are
available, or how to avoid long waitlists, the work we do is shaping the future
of accessibility and improving lives.
Who we are
Today. Tomorrow. Always.
Founded in 2018, Support & Growth is one of Canada’s leading providers of culturally responsive mental health and wellness services and integrated employee wellbeing solutions.

Our approach
We provide an evidence-based, culturally responsive approach to mental well-being that ensures all clients receive support from someone that sees them as an individual and understands their day-to-day challenges based on their similar life experiences. Our model is designed to help clients to feel safe, heard and understood as they journey through life.

Improving accessibility for Canadians of diverse backgrounds
For many of our clients, “therapy” has stood for a painful process spanning multiple years with minimal results, week after week on long waitlists, month after month of trying to find the “right” therapist - this is especially true for people of diverse backgrounds who have unique needs when seeking mental health services.
You come first
We want you to see us as members of your care team. We treat others the way we want to be treated. As your trusted partner, each plan is personalized, as there is only one you!
We are committed to addressing the barriers that prevent Canadians of diverse backgrounds from accessing therapy.
