A Message from
Dr. Grey

I am a dedicated and compassionate Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist. I am deeply committed to helping people navigate and heal from life's challenges. My educational journey has been rich and diverse, equipping me with a profound understanding of the human mind and relationships.

Specializing in Trauma and Sexual and Gender Minorities (SGM), I have substantial experience working with many forms of trauma and a range of issues related to sex, sexual and gender identity.

My patients have affectionately referred to me as “The Loving Hammer.” This nickname encapsulates my empathetic yet confrontational style, which combines warmth and directness to effectively challenge and support my patients.

I firmly believe in self-love, healing the inner child, reprocessing trauma, and exploring the human experience while maintaining accountability. Together, we will work to uncover the root causes of your distress, examine how these wounds impact your interactions and daily life, gain valuable insights, and empower you to embrace living your life with unapologetic authenticity.

As a Therapist and Human, I truly understand what it feels like to be marginalized or to carry heavy burdens, and I want you to know that you’re not alone in your struggles. Whether you’ve faced trauma in the past or are navigating challenges in the present, I'm here to assure you that healing isn’t just a dream—it can be your reality. You are warmly welcomed, embraced, and deeply valued here.

I am Queer, BIPOC, Kinky, Neurodivergent, and Polyamorous, but most importantly,

I am Human.

-Dr. Grey
