Grace Karugu

Often telling your story can be challenging…

I’m Grace, and I’m here to support you with compassion and understanding as you navigate life’s challenges. Feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or uncertain is completely normal, but you don’t have to move through it alone. Together, we can create space for clarity, healing, and renewed strength.

Experience

I hold a Bachelor’s degree in Health Science from Western University and a Master’s in Counselling Psychology from Yorkville University. I have experience working with youth and adults facing trauma, loss, anxiety, depression, and relationship concerns.
I am trained in EMDR, an evidence-based therapy highly effective for trauma and PTSD, which I integrate into my work to support deeper healing and emotional processing.

Client Focus

I work with youth and adults, offering support for trauma, anxiety, depression, grief and loss, relationship challenges, and emotional overwhelm. My goal is to create a therapeutic space where you feel safe, heard, and supported as you explore what you’re carrying.

Types of Therapy

My approach is holistic, warm, and personalized, grounded in the belief that every client’s story is unique. I draw from EMDR and Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), along with mindfulness-informed strategies, to help you uncover insight, build coping skills, and move toward resilience and empowerment.

Issues I Support

I support clients working through trauma, anxiety, depression, grief, relational stress, and low self-worth. I’m committed to helping you navigate emotional challenges with compassion and build the tools you need to move forward with confidence.

More than just my work

Outside of the therapy room, I love spending time with family and friends, staying active, and exploring new places. Travel, movement, and connection are sources of joy and balance in my life.

Let’s Connect

If you’re feeling stuck or unsure of your next steps, I’m here to walk alongside you. You’re welcome to book an appointment, and together we can begin your path toward healing, growth, and a more fulfilling life.
