The Growth Collective's Approach

Trauma-informed

Relational

ARC-informed 

Somatic & parts work

Skills you can use this week

Holistic (mind–body–community)

We blend evidence and empathy. Your care starts with safety and attunement, then layers in clear, practical skills you can use right away. We work with the nervous system (body), story and identity (mind), and the ecosystems you live in (community). Using ARC (adapted for adults), somatic practices, and parts work inside a strong, relational alliance, we help you build regulation, boundaries, and self-trust—so change isn’t just insightful, it’s sustainable.

The Growth Collective - Why We're Here

The Growth Collective was born from a simple truth: women deserve care that understands the full context of our lives. For years, I watched incredible, high-achieving, big-hearted women carry so much—career, family, caregiving, friendships, invisible labor—and be told to “cope better” rather than be met with therapy that actually fits women’s bodies, rhythms, identities, and lived experience. Women’s-based therapy has deep roots in community care: we’ve always healed in circles, kitchens, late-night phone calls, and small moments of “me too.” The Growth Collective brings that lineage into a modern, evidence-informed space where you can exhale, be fully seen, and grow without apology. We specialize in the realities so many women know firsthand: chronic stress that won’t turn off, anxiety that masks as overachieving, burnout disguised as “being fine,” people-pleasing and boundary fatigue, grief and trauma that live in the body, and the complicated love we hold for our families, partners, and ourselves. We take the science seriously—and we honor intuition. We look at nervous-system health, attachment, identity, hormones, sleep, movement, meaning, and culture. We ask not just “what’s wrong?” but “what happened, what worked for you then, and what do you need now?” Our approach is trauma-informed, relational, and deeply human. We blend practical skills with soul-level work: regulation and resilience, boundary setting that actually sticks, communication that feels honest and kind, and rebuilding trust with your body and your voice. We integrate models like ARC (adapted for adults) alongside mindfulness, strengths-based CBT, parts/inner-child work, and somatic practices—always personalized, never one-size-fits-all. We care about outcomes and we care about you feeling safe, respected, and empowered along the way. Why women-focused care matters: historically, women’s pain has been minimized, our stress normalized, and our strengths used against us (“you’re so capable—can you just handle a little more?”). Women’s-based therapy challenges that pattern. It centers your experience, names the systems that shape it, and helps you create sustainable change—at home, at work, and within. It also honors the seasons of a woman’s life: early career and identity building, caregiving and partnership, fertility and cycle shifts, loss and reinvention. Your story isn’t “too much.” It’s the map. At The Growth Collective, you’ll find: A calm, judgment-free space that feels welcoming and real. Clinicians who are collaborative, transparent, and grounded in best practices. Practical tools you can use this week, not just theory. Care that respects culture, identity, and the many roles you hold. A holistic view of healing—mind, body, relationships, and community. Who we’re for: the eldest daughters and default problem-solvers, the perfectionists learning to soften, the caretakers who also deserve care, the women rebuilding after grief or burnout, and anyone ready to move from survival mode to intentional, rooted living. Whether you want focused short-term support or deeper therapy, we’ll meet you where you are and walk with you at your pace. How it started, how it’s going: The Growth Collective began as a vision for a women-only therapy space that was both clinically excellent and profoundly human. Today, it’s a growing community—individual therapy, thoughtful groups, and workshops that blend education with empowerment. We’re building a place where you can practice new patterns, celebrate tiny wins, and feel supported by clinicians who genuinely care about your growth. If you’re ready to feel more grounded, more you, and more supported in your life, you’re in the right place. Take a breath. You don’t have to hold it all alone anymore. Welcome to The Growth Collective—where women come to heal, grow, and rise.

Our Founder, Amaliah

I created The Growth Collective for the women I kept meeting in therapy rooms and real life—the eldest daughters, the high-achievers, the caretakers—who were carrying everything and still being told to “just cope.” I’m Amaliah Ann Torres, MS, LMHC, a trauma-informed therapist and clinical leader who believes women deserve care that honors our bodies, identities, and lived experience. My work centers anxiety, burnout, boundary fatigue, people-pleasing, grief, and complex trauma—especially for women who look “so capable” on the outside and feel exhausted on the inside.

My approach blends evidence and intuition: nervous-system regulation, attachment and parts work, strengths-based CBT, somatic practices, and ARC (adapted for adults)—all wrapped in a warm, collaborative, no-judgment vibe. I’m big on practical tools you can use this week and deep, sustainable change that respects culture, season of life, and the systems you move through.

I started The Growth Collective to be the space I wanted for my clients (and honestly, for myself): clinically excellent, human, and unapologetically women-focused. If you’re ready to move from survival mode to grounded, intentional living—with support that actually fits—you’re in the right place. Let’s build a life that feels like you.
