I am a licensed professional counselor and have been licensed for almost 2 years of experience and 25 years in the areas of coaching, training, leadership, and mentoring industries. I love to meet the client where they are and allow them to help me follow them and where they desire to go. I counsel and offer the freedom for clients to grow in their own ways and become themselves in the process on a deeper scale.

Get to know me

In our first session together, here's what you can expect

The client and clinician will get to know one another and find space to gather information and data to see if the relationship is a great fit. The client will be made to feel good about being in the new space and allowed to better understand the processes of therapy and what will happen during the times together. The first session will cover history, confidentiality, and how often the client wants to meet or needs to meet.

The biggest strengths that I bring into our sessions

As a provider, I seek to be very accepting and direct at same time. I am an open book meaning I want the client to feel safe and secure and wanting to talk further. I am pretty down to earth and genuine and work to allow the space to be the clients and for me to support their journey.

The clients I'm best positioned to serve

I am best ready to serve clients seeking help and knowing they need to make some changes in order to better their lives. I am well equipped to meet the needs of anxiety and depression, as well as life transitions and couples, and finally spirituality and emotional regulation and trauma type needs.

I’m very grateful for the support I’ve received from Mr. Grubb. He has helped me through tough situations and has always been someone I could rely on. He created a comfortable, judgment-free space that made it easier for me to open up. He is patient and understanding, and he helps me make sense of my thoughts and emotions. I’m working on being more confident, and I couldn’t have started that process without his help. I would highly recommend him.
