Lumino Health Sunlife Top Rated Psychotherapy Provider
Amanda Neves Therapy + Associates
Amanda Neves, Registered Social Worker verified by GoodTherapy.org
Providing curated psychotherapy treatment and support for issues related to the LGBTQ community.
 

We humbly acknowledge that we practice our services T’karonto (colonially known as Toronto), the traditional territory of various nations including the Mississaugas of the Credit, the Anishnabeg, the Chippewa, the Haudenosaunee and the Wendat peoples; and is now, and always will be, the home to many diverse First Nations, Inuit and Métis peoples.

We support and stand in solidarity with Black communities seeking freedom and reparative justice in light of the ongoing impact of slavery in Canada. We acknowledge that not everyone came to these lands voluntarily, that many were brought here forcefully through the Trans-Atlantic Slave Trade. Our team aims to confront and dismantle anti-Black racism and pay tribute to those ancestors of African origin and descent.
