Clinic Director, Clinical Supervisor & Registered Psychotherapist
Cierra Garrow
BA., MACP., RP., RMFT., EFT-C
Cierra Garrow is a Registered Psychotherapist and a Registered Marriage and Family Therapist with many years of clinical and teaching experience. Her clinical approach is informed by Emotionally Focused Therapy, Solution-Focused Brief Therapy, Dialectical Behaviour Therapy, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, and is trauma-informed. She specializes in working with children/youth, families, and couples. She incorporates the outdoors, land-based interventions, cooking interventions, and creative approaches that meet clients where they are at. She takes a systems perspective to assessment, case conceptualization and collaborative treatment planning.
She uses the Reflective Model of Supervision as the foundation for clinical supervision practice to support clinicians in capacity building, providing space to explore the complexities of their clients’ experiences, and the intended and unintended impacts of our work. She will use solution-focused strategies (asking “what’s going well?” at the beginning of each of our sessions) and encourage exploration of a wide variety of techniques (“what resources do you and they have access to, to move you closer to your goals?”) to address the wide variety of presenting issues.
Cierra believes in the power of connection and focuses on this with her supervisees to support them in their own heart-led practices.

Growing Together Through Collaborative Training and Supervision
You do meaningful work supporting clients, leading teams, caring for communities, or guiding organizations through change. Even the most skilled professionals need spaces where they can grow, reflect, and learn alongside someone who understands the realities of the field. That is the foundation of the work I offer: collaborative, experiential, and rooted in real-world practice.
Whether I am training a team, facilitating a workshop, or supervising clinicians, I work in partnership with the people in front of me. I do not arrive with a one-size-fits-all agenda. Instead, we co-create the experience together, shaping the training or supervision to match your goals, your values, and the unique challenges you are navigating.
My approach is not just theoretical. I integrate experiential methods that help professionals move beyond information and into embodied understanding. This might involve:
-
Working outdoors through walk-and-talk sessions, ecotherapy, or adventure-based exercises to help teams think differently, reconnect, and problem-solve from a grounded place.
-
Using creative and culinary-based activities to explore communication, emotional awareness, or group dynamics in a hands-on way.
-
Incorporating relational and attachment-informed practices that strengthen how professionals show up with clients, colleagues, and themselves.
In supervision and consultation, I take a collaborative stance that is supportive, direct, and grounded in ethical, trauma-informed practice. I help clinicians develop confidence in their decision-making, refine their clinical skills, and navigate the complexities of private practice, documentation, boundaries, and therapeutic relationships. My goal is to strengthen each clinician’s voice and to help their work feel purposeful and steady rather than overwhelming.
Creating Healthier Workplaces, Stronger Teams, and More Connected Communities
Alongside my clinical work, I offer speaking engagements and customized training for organizations, community groups, and professional teams across Ontario and Canada. My approach blends real-world experience, professional education, and an inviting, relatable delivery style, whether I’m on a stage, facilitating a workshop, or consulting with leadership teams.
