About Us
Working together for greater mental health, one step at a time
Amani Routes Counselling was founded in May 2021 by Cece Tardiff.
The name Amani was inspired by Cece's second language, Swahili, which means peace.
Amani Routes Counselling mainly provides mental health counselling to individuals and groups. The company's vision is to see every individual have the ability to seek and access mental health support whenever they need it. It's mission is to provide mental health support and well-being to all. Wouldn't it be such a wonderful world where we are all able to be okay with NOT being okay and not feeling judged or stigmatized for it?? Our biggest goal is to be a part of the change we want to see in the world. To have mental health at the forefront of everything we do. Because there is simply no health without mental health!

What Participants are Saying
She has encouraged me to slow down and take life day to day. She has helped me to refocus on the power of exercise and nutrition. She has helped me to refocus my thoughts on the parts of life that bring me joy. I don't feel pressured or ashamed when I talk to her. Slowly, I see tiny gains in my health. This summer was horrible losing my father but when I feel a slide in my health, I focus on the techniques that Cece has shared with me. Stress and anxiety will always be a part of my life. Cece has helped me realize that instead of fighting my anxiety, it's ok to just "be" and live my life a better way.
I'm incredibly grateful that Cece has entered my life. Her support has given me the courage to begin to feel better and move forward. I look forward to continuing to work with her.
I have had counselling sessions with CeCe this spring 2021. The experience was very compassionate and understanding, she gave me ideas and strategies to get thru my difficulties I was experiencing. Cece firstly listened then expressed methods and encouraging words for me to process my pain into growth. I really want to continue counselling with Cece, she assisted me in growing emotionally.
Thank you
Overall I had a very good counselling experience with you. You said many things that resonated with me, and helped me to get perspective on my feelings and my situation. You listened carefully when I was talking about myself, and provided a sense of connection that I valued. It was a good experience, and it helped me a lot.
Cece is an amazing counselor! She is kind, empathetic, compassionate, caring, understanding and incredibly supportive. She weaves these wonderful qualities into all of her wonderfully insightful comments, suggestions and recommendations. My sessions with her have been very helpful. I would definitely recommend her counseling services to family and friends.
Kind regards,
Matthew H.
As I reflected on 2021 and look ahead to 2022, I am grateful for the positive impact my sessions with Cece have had on my 2021. She allowed me a safe space to share and provided thoughtful insights. She was a wonderful support and guided me through my emotions and thought process. She showed she cared by her follow up during subsequent discussions. I would recommend Cece and the counseling program to others. It was very beneficial for me.
