Hi! My name is Samantha Grimes, and I am a licensed Marriage and Family Therapist. I specialize in anxiety, trauma, addiction recovery, and relationships. I am also trained in EMDR and Brainspotting. I tend to work best with the people who are faced with anxiety or panic attacks, mood disorders, people pleasers, intellectualizers, people who have had trauma, eating disorders or addiction, and people who want deeper more meaningful relationships with themselves and others. I use humor and creativity in my practice.
I use attachment-based therapies, psychodynamic theory, and cognitive behavioral therapy. I approach problems through a trauma informed, person centered lenses, which means we take a look at how your current situation might be influenced by old narratives and past experiences and help you move forward with compassion and authenticity.
I am warm, compassionate, and curious. I will guide you through the process, making sure you feel safe and supported. I will challenge you to look at different perspectives, laugh with you, curse with you, and create a space for you to sort through it all and fully show up authentically. You will walk away with tangible skills and strengths.
