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!
