Know(ing) your Past Reshaping your Future
Rooted in the ancestral wisdom of Sankofa, we guide you in honouring your past to shape a grounded, thriving future — through compassionate, culturally attuned therapy that centers your lived experience.
About Us
At Sankofa Psychotherapy and Consultancy Group healing is a return — a reaching back to carry forward what was left behind.
We create spaces where identity, culture, and emotional well-being reunite.
Inspired by the West African principle of Sankofa — 'go back and fetch it' — we walk alongside individuals, families, and organizations to heal what's been wounded, remember what's been silenced, and reclaim wholeness with deep cultural reverence.
