Abelee Groff
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LICSW
I work with adults experiencing trauma and PTSD, helping clients process overwhelming experiences and understand how past events may affect their emotions, relationships, and daily functioning. I provide a safe, supportive space to explore triggers, navigate difficult memories, and build resilience.
I integrate trauma-informed, somatic, and parts-based approaches, as well as attachment-focused strategies, to support emotional regulation, nervous system stabilization, and self-compassion. Therapy emphasizes empowerment, safety, and gradual healing, helping clients reclaim a sense of control, stability, and connection with themselves and others.

Angelynn Lindor
Counselor/Therapist, LMHC
Trauma doesn’t just live in the past—it lingers in the body, in relationships, and in how we see ourselves. Whether you’ve experienced childhood trauma, abuse, loss, or ongoing emotional wounds, I provide a safe and grounded space to process what you’ve been through without judgment. I work from a trauma-informed lens that honors your pace, your boundaries, and your story. Using evidence-based approaches like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, grounding techniques, and emotional processing strategies, I help clients reduce symptoms of PTSD, build safety within themselves, and begin to restore trust—in their own voice, body, and future. Healing is possible, and you don’t have to do it alone.
