Empowering individuals to achieve positive growth through self-understanding, compassion, and acceptance.

Hi there, welcome to Intentional Growth Counselling.

It can feel overwhelming trying to choose a counsellor or therapist, so we really appreciate you taking the time to check us out.

 Intentional Growth Counselling was founded by Tymarah Cholewa with the intention of providing therapy services that are authentic and meaningful - while also feeling relaxed and comfortable. Experiencing growth and change is really possible. Finding a connection with a counsellor with whom you feel safe to show up as your true self is one of the best places to start.

We strongly believe that the most important thing about counselling is that there is a good fit between the counsellor and client. For this reason we always offer a 15-minute phone consultation, at no charge to you, so that you can get a better idea of who we are and how we might work together. 

We work with both individuals and couples. Some of the areas we focus in are:

  • depression

  • anxiety

  • trauma

  • relationship issues (self, friendships, family, romantic partners)

  • grief & loss

  • desire for personal growth, change, and healing

  • body image concerns

  • adult children with parents who use substances or have difficult families of origin

Seeking support for something you don't see listed here? That's ok, give us a call, send an email, or use the link below.

We are welcoming of all identities and bodies including trans, non-binary, BIPOC, queer identities, and people with disabilities.

"Good management of bad experiences leads to great growth."
