Craig Mead
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, LCPC
Most people experience some form of stress, anxiety, overwhelm at some point in their lives. Persistent chronic stress in particular can lead to depression and even become traumatic. Many are seeing the advantage of talking to a professional to sort out their problems and also avoid overburdening their partner, family, and friends. Some issues are just easier to talk with a non-related third party. Therapy is a valuable opportunity to process through your thoughts and feeling and gain understanding of yourself, relationship problems, and family conflicts. I genuinely enjoy helping others work through their struggles and learn more about the roots of their current problems.

Susan Spicer
Psychologist, PhD
I specialize in EMDR therapy to help individuals heal from trauma and narcissistic abuse, and to return to a place of self-love and emotional balance. Experiences of childhood physical, emotional or sexual abuse can remain stuck in the body, as can instances of narcissistic abuse. These have the potential to contribute to symptoms of depression, anxiety, and hypervigilance as well as problems successfully navigating relationships and managing daily living. I utilize EMDR therapy to change the way these negative memories are stored in the brain, and help you achieve a place of resolution and peace. As a neuropsychologist, I can help you condition your thoughts and rewire your brain for happiness and success.

Norma J. Perez
Psychologist, PhD
I'm not your ordinary therapist. I have 20 + years of experience as a therapist, plus I have the life experience of a wife of 43 years, mother of two, and grandmother of four. I am the therapist that people come in and say, "Wow, you helped me more in one session than I got out of years with several other therapists." I am fun, direct, empathetic, but direct so that you can have the results you are looking for in a short amount of time. I love what I do, so it's not work to me. I'm very interactive in sessions so there won't be many times where I just sit there and don't provide feedback. I'm the type of therapist that will call you out on your stuff so I can help you meet your goals and have better relationships with others. I love talking with potential clients to see if I'm a good fit. After a phone call with me you will be able to get a sense if I'm a good fit for you. Please give me a call and let's chat!

Dr. Abrielle Conway, Rooted in Grace Psychological Services
Psychologist, Psy.D., Licensed Psychologist
Hi, I'm a licensed psychologist who is passionate about improving women's mental health, addressing sources of anxiety/stress, perfectionism, grief/loss, and trauma. I'm especially effective at working with women who are highly motivated to see change in their lives. Despite a strong desire to break through their circumstances, they often feel overwhelmed and stuck. They share that they need practical, hands-on strategies to help them overcome their problems.
I take a highly collaborative approach in our work, meaning that while I give clients necessary information to make an educated decision, clients are in control of their treatment throughout the entire process.
To get a feel for my style, I've included several pieces of feedback I've heard from clients who have enjoyed working with me:
1. "You see me and you hear me. I'm not alone anymore. This is the first time I've felt so understood."
2. "You are a safe place to just be myself with all my imperfections. I don't have to worry about putting on a mask."
3. "You give me practical tools to help me deal with my problems. I've made so much more progress in working with you over the past month than I did with my last therapist in years."
If it sounds like we could work well together, feel free to call the office or request a consultation: https://www.rootedingrace.org/request/service

Psychologist, Ph.D.
Life can be challenging. We don’t always find ourselves where we want to be or as happy as we would like. When that happens, therapy is an incredible tool to reflect on where you are and where you want to be. It is an honor and privilege to help my clients deal with their current circumstances and build healthier, happier lives. Please don’t hesitate to reach out if I can help you.
