My name is Grace, and I am a white queer woman who works with teens and young adults to support them in learning about themselves and healing from past trauma. I specialize in working with LGBTQIA folks and anyone exploring their identity; as well as people of color, disabled folks, and others who face intersecting forms of oppression. My practice is rooted in social justice and anti-racism, and a belief that systemic oppression directly affects our mental health. In our work together, we’ll explore the ways in which systems of power and societal expectations interfere with our right to authenticity and wholeness.

Does your family fight frequently? Do you struggle to connect and end up isolating? Have you tried numerous parenting strategies with no luck? Do you have a difficult child? You’re not alone. Granite Bridges can work with you if your family: has done office-based family therapies and found the work to be too sporadic and superficial for lasting change, has difficulty communicating and connecting, fights frequently or isolates separately, is struggling with a manipulative teen, needs help with parenting, would like to do work outside with less distractions or who want to do more intense work quickly (NOT typical in-office therapy).

I see you: you're exhausted and anxious. You take care of everybody else before yourself and you give so much of your time, energy, and emotional caring. You are ruled by guilt and feel like you can't say "no" to people because you're terrified they will be mad at you or you'll be rejected. You bravely try to suppress your feelings and needs in order to make people around you happy, but sometimes you feel so full of emotion that it just spills out. It's so hard and lonely to feel trapped and unseen. But, you don't have to continue to feel this way.

Counseling is not one-size-fits-all. My approach is to allow the client to tell their story in an open, judgement-free environment creating a safe and trusting connection with treatment designed according to what makes sense to you. Whether you need assistance in processing your experiences, have a specific problem/habit, are seeking general growth, or simply need support and a trusting connection. I offer short and long-term treatment designed to work with you and your unique situation and experiences.

My ideal client wants to connect with a real person, reconnect to their mind and body and ultimately expand their coping tool kit!
