Dr. JD Wright
Psychologist, PhD, Licensed Psychologist
My approach is grounded in an understanding of the impact of trauma, recognizing that our struggles always exist in the context of our environments and histories. I weave mindfulness and positive psychology into our sessions, aiming not just for 'okay,' but for a life that feels truly meaningful and fulfilling. Trained in clinical hypnosis, EMDR, ACT, and CBT, I bring a diverse toolkit to tailor our sessions to your unique needs.
I see our time together as a collaborative space, where your feedback and active participation shape the path to your well-being. There's no one-size-fits-all in therapy—I believe in finding the approach that resonates best with you and addresses your specific concerns. Let's embark on this journey towards positive change together.

Resilient Roots Therapy - Social Work and Psychotherapy Services
Registered Social Worker, RSW, MA, RP
At Resilient Roots Therapy, we are person-centred and trauma-informed, meaning our work will be grounded in respect, empathy, and your own unique strengths. We integrate a variety of effective modalities, including narrative therapy, somatic work, Mind-Body Attunement, neuro-linguistic approaches, and internal family systems. These forms of therapy are highly effective in normalizing the mind-body connection and supporting the healing of emotional wounds, including intergenerational trauma.
I have been in the mental health field for 11 years. Throughout my career, I’ve been on my own journey of identity learning, understanding that identity is something we come into rather than something we find. As a queer Black woman, I am keenly aware of the unique challenges faced by people of colour, queer, trans, and non-binary folx. My intent is to not only create a safe space for all my clients but also a brave space where genuine transformation can occur.

Grand Rapids is the commercial capital of west Michigan and the cultural center of the Christian Reformed tradition in America — a denomination that has historically shaped the city's conservative, community-oriented character and created a therapy landscape where faith-integrated approaches are among the most sought after. The city has a large Latino community and growing populations from West Africa and Burma through refugee resettlement, creating multilingual and culturally diverse therapy demand alongside its predominantly White and faith-oriented mainstream. Corewell Health and Trinity Health Grand Rapids provide major institutional mental health resources, while Calvin University and Michigan State University's Grand Rapids medical campus contribute training programs. Grand Rapids's growing art and brewing culture reflects a diversifying city identity, and therapists working with creative professionals and young urban residents are increasingly well represented.
