Healing + Thriving
with Gwen
Welcome
I’m Gwen Grigsby, a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (CA #123475). I’m passionate about helping motivated adults navigate difficult emotions and strengthen their relationships.
​
My practice focuses on reducing anxiety, healing emotional trauma, and addressing relationship challenges. I also work with couples to build stronger foundations, improve communication, and deepen emotional intimacy.
​
My approach is attachment-based, emotionally focused, and experiential. I draw on techniques from Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT), Accelerated Experiential Dynamic Psychotherapy (AEDP), and Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) to tailor therapy to each client’s needs.
​
I invite you to schedule a complimentary phone consultation to discuss your 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 coping strategies in response to our environment—often as a way to stay safe, seek connection, and make sense of the world around us. While these strategies may serve us well in the moment, they can become limiting or disruptive as we grow, leading to emotional or relational difficulties with loved ones, friends, and colleagues.
​
Recognizing when something isn’t working—and reaching out for support—takes immense courage and strength.
As human beings, we are not meant to navigate our struggles alone. In the presence of a compassionate and attuned other, we can begin to understand and gently unravel the patterns that no longer serve us. Together, we can honor the protection those behaviors once offered, while building the clarity, confidence, and capacity to live with more freedom and authenticity.
​
It would be a privilege to walk alongside you on this journey.
