Welcome to Growthwork
Are you ready to take charge of your emotional health and wellbeing? You’re in the right place!
WHO WE ARE
Growthwork is a educational and therapeutic platform designed for and by muslim women.
It was created in response to the lack of resources for emotional skill building and theraputic resources that allowed muslim women to show up as they are.
Values & Vision
COMPASSION
Compassion is the cornerstone of all meaningful work. Whether it is therapy or a workshop, all of our work is grounded in a compassionate approach to our humanness and our struggles.
TRUST
Emotional work isn’t easy and without trust, there is no safety.
COLLABORATION
Growth and healing are both an individual and communal experience. The goal at growthwork is to collaborate with you to create spaces that meet your individual needs.
We also believe in group learning and work to create communal spaces that are grounded in collaboration- no one is an expert on you or on everything and there is something to learn from everyone.

What We Offer
Therapy
Are you struggling with managing your emotions and functioning at your fullest? Do you feel like a lot of things have happened in life that continue to impact you even though it’s been a long time? Are you thoughts getting in the way of actually living?
Mental Health Workshops
Our online and in person workshops cover a vast range of topics with the goal of providing real life skills that you can use starting today! Topics include emotional regulation, healthy boundaries, building resilience, and Living values.
Mentoring
Are you an aspiring therapist and have questions? Reach out! I offer 1 hour mentoring sessions for you to ask all of your questions and gain insight and understanding of what it might look like for you to be in this field!
Therapy is for everyone.
You don’t have to be in crisis to seek help and we all deserve and need spaces that we feel seen and cared for in. I provide individual counseling for adults struggling with depression, anxiety, life transitions, self love/self esteem issues, stress, burnout, spiritual and faith crisis, and trauma. I use CBT (cognitive behavioral therapy), DBT (dialetical behavioral therapy), IFS (itnernal family systems) and mindfulness to help you come back to and live your best self.
About Me
Salaam
I’m Sumayyah, founder of growthwork! I created Growthwork as an answer to my own struggle of finding a place to seek healing and build real life skills to take care of my emotional health. As a former teacher, now therapist- I work with Muslim women on their journey to healing and to build their emotional health toolkits.
Empowering women with skills that help them better understand and take care of themselves is my passion. My goal for you is to find peace and connection within yourself and I’m committed to walking with you on that journey.
I look forward to connecting with you and supporting you through your challenges.
