I’m a relational, insight-oriented therapist who believes meaningful change happens when we slow down enough to understand what’s really driving our patterns. I work with adults navigating anxiety, trauma, identity shifts, and relationship dynamics, especially those who function well on the outside but feel tangled or overwhelmed internally. My approach is psychodynamic and collaborative. Together, we look at the emotional themes and internal narratives shaping your current struggles, not just to analyze them, but to help you move through life with more clarity, flexibility, and self-trust.

We all have fundamental needs: To belong, to feel understood, to give and receive love, to feel financially secure, to be free from pain. My approach to therapy begins with addressing the impetus that led to scheduling that first appointment, to then addressing core basic needs like sleep, nutrition and social connections. We will work to develop an awareness into emotional states and behaviors that arise out of them. Sometimes, it is the actions of others that are the primary source of our own distress. Even then, we can focus on what is in our control to improve our coping and circumstances. While I work with people of many backgrounds and areas of concern, please note I particularly specialize working with individuals and their caregivers on issues surrounding serious illness, fertility/infertility, onco-survivorship, and postpartum support and am accepting new clients with these concerns.

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with nearly two decades of experience walking alongside people through some of life's most challenging moments. My career has taken me across multiple systems — child welfare, medical social work, vocational rehabilitation, and community mental health — and what I have carried through all of it is a deep belief that every person has the capacity for growth and healing, regardless of where they are starting from. I bring a warm, direct, and grounded presence to my work. I am not the kind of therapist who sits back and says very little- I am engaged, I ask questions, and I genuinely invest in understanding your world. At the same time, I know that the pace and direction of this work belong to you. My role is to walk alongside you, not ahead of you. I am particularly passionate about working with young adults navigating the complexities of early adulthood, as well as individuals from communities that have traditionally had limited access to culturally responsive mental health care.

I frequently work with survivors of child sexual abuse, as well as those struggling with issues related to self-worth, but work with other conditions as well.

Hi! I'm Dr. Aleesha Grier-Rogers — a licensed, PSYPACT-authorized clinical psychologist with nearly 20 years of experience supporting adults through complex emotional, medical, and life transitions. I focus on working with women — especially women of color and LGBTQ+ women — navigating three deeply personal journeys: (1) building families through IVF, IUI, donor conception, surrogacy, or adoption; (2) perimenopause and menopause transitions; and (3) physician-assisted weight management via bariatric surgery or GLP-1 medications. I understand that identity and culture don't exist in the background — they shape every layer of these experiences. From navigating bias and dismissal from providers, to managing the expectations of partners and family, to reconciling your own values with the choices you're making, you deserve a space where all of that is seen, named, and held. -The journey through IVF, IUI, and donor conception is extremely challenging — I know firsthand. The uncertainty, isolation, fear, and grief that accompany each cycle, each loss, and each decision can be overwhelming. I help clients navigate the emotional highs and lows, challenge unhelpful thoughts, and strengthen self-trust at every step of their family-building journey. -Perimenopause and menopause are too often met with silence or judgment. I meet clients where they are, offering validation, clarity, and tools to navigate emotional, physical, and relational changes with confidence. -Weight loss/management — even with surgery or GLP-1s — is only half the battle. I help clients manage food noise, triggers, self-criticism, and fear of regain, while reconciling the "new you" in the mirror with the "you" they've carried inside. If you're tired of feeling alone, unseen, or misunderstood — you're in the right place. I help clients build resilience and agency while navigating bias, stigma, and the unique cultural and relational layers these journeys bring — turning frustration into growth, empowerment, and self-trust.
