Brandi Gruninger

OWNER, DIRECTOR

Brandi is the owner and director of Evolution Psychology. Brandi spent six years working in the non-profit sector before moving into private practice in 2012.

She founded Evolution Psychology in 2013 with herself as the only clinician and Janet Brown as her office administrator.

Together they have looked after the overall operations of the clinic for nine years now: each expanding their roles and supporting a staff of 27.

Brandi still sees her clients weekly but now spends most of her time supervising newer therapists and overseeing the clinical aspects of the practice. She enjoys public speaking on various topics including adolescent issues, disordered eating, anxiety, and abusive relationships.

Brandi has recently focused her attention on expanding the practice into a new location where she enjoys practicing her second passion after psychology: interior decorating.

Brandi enjoys partnering with other small businesses and becoming involved in community initiatives that further mental health. She oversees an on-line networking group for clinicians to enhance a sense of support and community for therapists in the Edmonton area.
