If you said “yes” to more than a few of these, then it is possible that you have a depression or an anxiety disorder. Due to the high levels of stress in our environment, it is possible for all of us to go through periods in our life where we feel overwhelmed and troubled about our lives. We may have difficulty functioning in the tasks of daily living, feel little or no joy in our lives, or struggle with feelings of being alone in the world. Depressed and anxious people often have physiological symptoms such as, Chronic Fatigue, Fibromyalgia, sleep disorders, compromised immune systems, and muscular aches and pains. We become ill because of stress and unresolved emotional issues in our lives.

She uses a variety of approaches, including psychotherapy, Heart Centered Hypnotherapy, Cognitive/Behavior Therapy, and Subtle Energy Healing to help people release old wounds and traumas that are holding them back from experiencing a full and productive life. Meditation and relaxation training are additional tools Dr. Grace teaches so that after therapy you can continue to release stressful life events.
