Healing + Thriving
with Gwen

Welcome
I’m Gwen Grigsby, a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (CA #123475). I am passionate about helping motivated adults navigate difficult emotions and enhance their relationships.
​
My practice primarily focuses on reducing anxiety, healing emotional trauma, and addressing relationship difficulties. I also work with couples to strengthen their foundation, engage in challenging conversations, and improve communication and emotional intimacy.
​
My therapeutic approach is attachment-based, emotionally focused, and experiential. I integrate techniques from Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT), Accelerated Experiential Dynamic Psychotherapy (AEDP), and Eye-Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) to create a personalized experience for each client.
​
I invite you to schedule a complimentary phone consultation, where we can discuss your therapy goals and how I can support you on your journey. I look forward to connecting!

Healing & Growth
I believe we are all born with the resilience to navigate life's challenges.
​
As children, we develop strategies to cope with our experiences. While these strategies may serve us well in the moment, helping us survive and connect with those we love, they can become ineffective as we grow into adulthood. This often leads to emotional and relational difficulties with loved ones, friends, and colleagues.
​
It takes courage and strength to recognize when something isn’t working and to seek support.
As social beings, we are not meant to face our struggles alone. In the presence of a compassionate and supportive other, we can explore these unhelpful behaviors, appreciate the protection they once provided, and gain clarity and confidence to listen to ourselves and live authentically.
I would be honored to join you on this journey.
