WE ALL HAVE A STORY...... "Owning our story can be hard but, not nearly as difficult as spending our lives running from it. Embracing our vulnerabilities is risky, but not nearly as dangerous as giving up on love and belonging and joy-the experience that make us the most vulnerable. Only when we are brave enough to explore the darkness will we discover the infinite power of our light"- Brene Brown. I provide a safe space for you to share your story and together we can develop long lasting solutions. I draw on several treatment modalities (including, but not limited to, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, and Solution Focused Therapy) to allow you to further develop your strengths and help you meet all of your treatment plan goals at a speed that works best for you. I'm also a Certified Clinical Trauma Professional (CCTP) who specializes in processing and healing from various traumas (sexual, emotional, physical and military/combat). Overall, I help you to see that managing the stressor is more important than just managing the stress as it will allow you to cope with anything that comes your way.

Hello, and welcome! First, let's acknowledge that taking the first step toward bettering your mental health is both empowering and courageous! I know initiating the process can feel intimidating, but it’s also the start of a transformative journey. While I may be new to Grow, I'm certainly not new to providing therapeutic care. With over 11 years of experience as a clinical social worker, I have helped countless individuals and families from various walks of life over the years. In my private practice, Therapy with Krystal, I focus on supporting millennial women as they navigate tough life transitions, and as they're ready to begin healing from complex trauma. While I prioritize women of color (WOC), I'm open to working with all allied races and genders. Through a holistic approach, I aim to create a safe space where you can cultivate a deeper connection with yourself. Together, we’ll foster growth, healing, and meaningful change by approaching your story with curiosity, compassion, and positive regard. I invite you to show up as your imperfect, unfiltered self—so that, over time, you feel safe expressing your true self in every area of your life. You're the expert on your own journey. My role is to walk alongside you, offering insight, support, and encouragement as you move forward. My goal is to help you establish more balance, peace, and fulfillment in your life- whatever that may look like for you.

Hi there, I'm Whitney! Living with stress and overwhelm can feel incredibly isolating, especially when you've spent so long pushing through just to make it from one day to the next. I understand how exhausting it can be to carry that weight alone. As a licensed clinical social worker (Licensed in FL & MN), I create a warm, safe space where you can finally breathe and begin to heal. I work alongside individuals who are ready to gently explore those complicated emotions and thoughts that have been tucked away for so long. Together, we'll honor your experiences while building the coping skills and inner strength you need to not just survive, but truly thrive. Healing isn't about erasing your story - it's about rewriting how that story shapes your future. You deserve compassionate support on this journey. I'd be honored to walk alongside you as you rediscover your resilience and create the life you're meant to live.

I am a Christian and Afro-Caribbean mom and forever learner. Psychology and healing deeply excite me. I dipped my toe into psychiatry for the first time as a high school student and am still furthering my education in clinical psychology today. I know there is a greater capacity for healing available to individuals who have always looked inward, fist-fought generational patterns, and still feel stuck in a world that says they need 15 more tasks completed by yesterday. I work to be a safe resting place for people who have moved from therapist to therapist, searching for someone who will truly see them for who they are rather than who the world has tried to mold them into. I desire to fill the Keturah-sized space in that wellness gap. I enjoy working side-by-side with clients to explore areas of possibility, rest, healing, and growth, and then provide the tools to make these things possible.

Hi -- my name is Sam, and I became a therapist because I know what it feels like to be stuck. It sucks. I love getting into the nitty gritty details of the mental chaos with my clients and then working on finding practical ways to untangle ourselves other than the classic "think positively" response (disclaimer: yes, it helps, but it's a lot more complicated than that). It's a lot of energy to work towards peace, I know, but I love what I do, and I'm more than willing to help.
