Hello

As a father and mental health professional with a decade worth of experience working with young people, I started GrowSpace with a simple mission: to create a mental health service I'd trust for my own children.​

​

Finding a good therapist can be a challenge and people often don’t know where to start, especially when public services are overwhelmed by referrals.​​

​

GrowSpace connects families with highly trained, vetted Christian therapists they can trust - without waiting lists or referrals.

Christian Values
Everyone is different and comes from different Christian traditions, but our core values are the same.

1. Imago Dei (Image of God)

We believe every person is created in God's image, imbuing them with inherent dignity, worth, and purpose. This foundational concept shapes our approach to therapy, ensuring we treat each client with respect and compassion.

2. Authority of Scripture

We recognise the Bible as the source of wisdom and guidance in our lives and practice. While interpretations may vary, we agree that Scripture provides insights into human nature, relationships, and well-being. Therapy is not Bible study, and Scripture may not come up in therapy at all, but it forms the foundation for our philosophical underpinnings.

3. Hope & Redemption

Central to our faith is the belief in the possibility of transformation and renewal. We approach each client's challenges with hope, knowing that positive change is possible through God's grace.

Professional Values

1. Client-centred

Each person's journey is unique, so the approach to therapy is collaborative and tailored to the individual.

2. Privacy

Trust is the foundation of effective therapy. We provide a secure space for clients in compliance with BACP Ethical guidelines.

3. Holistic

Mental health is interconnected with emotional and spiritual wellness. Our approach considers the whole person.

4. Respect

Every client's story matters. We honour each person's experiences, approaching our work with genuine care and regard.

5. Professionalism

Every therapist involved with GrowSpace has undergone a vetting process and is licensed and registered with a professional body.
