Collective Growth Vancouver: Your Path to Healing and Growth
You are welcome here, exactly as you are.
Healing, Learning and Growing
Collective Growth is a Vancouver-based, LGBTQ+ owned practice offering online counselling, trauma-informed workshops and training, and professional coaching. Rooted in compassion, connection, and social justice, we support individuals and organizations in creating meaningful and lasting change.
​
Services include:
​
Trauma Informed & Decolonial Training
We believe that personal growth and collective well-being are deeply connected. When we create space for understanding, healing, and learning, we create possibilities for transformation within ourselves, our relationships, and our communities.
​
Rooted in Community. Guided by Connection.
​
We're Pao and Fede, co-creators of Collective Growth. As immigrants, counsellors, and community mental health workers, our personal and professional experiences have shaped how we understand healing, connection, and the importance of community.
Our work in Vancouver's Downtown Eastside has deepened our understanding of trauma, systemic barriers, and the resilience of individuals and communities.
​
We created Collective Growth with a shared vision: to offer spaces where people feel respected, valued, and empowered, while challenging traditional approaches that overlook the social and systemic realities influencing our well-being. Our work is grounded in trauma-informed care, decolonial perspectives, cultural humility, and a deep commitment to collective well-being.
​
​
Online Counselling
A space for you to be seen, heard, and supported.
​
Life can be overwhelming, and navigating it doesn't have to happen alone.
Our online counselling services offer compassionate, trauma-informed support for individuals experiencing trauma, anxiety, depression, burnout, identity exploration, relationship challenges, and life transitions. We provide a collaborative, non-judgmental space where your experiences, identities, and individual needs are honoured.
Our approach is holistic, culturally responsive, and grounded in the belief that healing happens at your own pace.
​
Organizational Workshops & Training - Learning that inspires meaningful change.
We offer interactive, trauma-informed training, mental health and professional development for non-profits, community organizations, and corporate teams. Our workshops bring together practical skills, experiential learning, and critical reflection to strengthen communication, deepen understanding, and build more compassionate and inclusive workplaces.
Grounded in trauma-informed and decolonial perspectives, our training explores topics such as emotional intelligence, power dynamics, communication, cultural humility, and workplace well-being.
We believe learning is most meaningful when it is collaborative, relevant, and connected to real-world experiences.
​
​
Professional & Organizational Coaching
​
Supporting the people who support, lead, and work with others. Meaningful professional growth requires space for reflection, curiosity, and connection.
Through individual and group coaching, we support professionals, managers, and teams in navigating workplace challenges, strengthening leadership and communication skills, and developing practical strategies grounded in empathy and self-awareness.
Our approach is collaborative, relational, and trauma-informed. Rather than offering one-size-fits-all solutions, we work alongside you to explore possibilities and develop approaches that align with your values and professional goals.
​
Collective Growth respectfully acknowledges that our practice is located on the traditional, ancestral and unceded, territories of the xÊ·mÉ™θkÊ·É™yÌ“É™m (Musqueam), Sḵwx̱wú7mesh Úxwumixw (Squamish), and sÉ™lÌ“ílwÉ™taʔɬ (Tsleil-Waututh) Nations.
We honour the enduring connection Indigenous Peoples have with these lands and waters and express our gratitude for their stewardship since time immemorial. We remain committed to listening, learning, and fostering relationships rooted in respect, humility, and care.
