Growth and Change Counseling
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
HIV/AIDS was stigmatized for a long time and seen by many as a death sentence. Our understanding of the disease has evolved and its important for those dealing with this issue to understand that while you may have to adjust to your experiences, life is still filled with hope, life still can be good, and you still can have dreams. Whatever your struggles around this issue, we at Growth and Change Counseling want you to know that we are here for you.

Timothy Weymann
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, Licensed Clinical Social Worker (L.C.S.W.)
I provide affirming, compassionate support for individuals living with HIV. An HIV+ diagnosis can bring up complex emotions—fear, shame, anger, grief, or isolation—while also intersecting with relationships, identity, health decisions, and stigma. My role is to create a safe, nonjudgmental space where you can process these experiences openly and at your own pace. Together, we address the emotional impact of diagnosis, medical trauma, disclosure concerns, and the stress of managing a chronic health condition. Using research-based approaches, I help clients build coping skills, strengthen resilience, and challenge internalized stigma. We also focus on fostering self-compassion, healthy relationships, and a sense of empowerment in navigating both healthcare systems and personal life. Therapy can be a space to reconnect with your strengths, values, and sense of hope, while building a life that feels meaningful and fully your own in the context of living with HIV.

Dr. Ingrid Solano
Psychologist, PhD
practice from an affirming, feminist, and anti-racist philosophy. This means that I unconditionally accept and value my clients’ gender, sexual, racial, cultural, and other identities. My practice takes into account each person’s unique experiences within contexts of social and systemic oppression, and the impact on your relationships. I practice from a place off cultural humility and allyship to black, indigenous, and other people of colour.
I have expertise in treating relationships and individuals navigating the impact of minority stress and discrimination. I practice affirming therapy that explores greater awareness and understanding of the ways in which emotional experiences and responses to experiences contribute to what is going on for you and your relationships. Navigating these challenges in your life has promoted strength and resilience in coping, paving the way for creative and successful approaches for managing future challenges. I help clients see these strengths in themselves, and create harmony and balance in their lives. I bring a stance of genuine curiosity and cultural competence that includes your different identities and their intersectionality.
