Grace Ford, LMHC

Psychotherapist

(they/she)

I work with people who want to make change in themselves and the world. I enjoy holding space for people who are highly sensitive, justice-oriented, deeply creative; don’t fit the boxes society has constructed for them; and may carry a heavy load of personal, generational, or identity-based trauma.

My own journey has led me to focus on exploring marginalized and intersectional identities. I work with queer and trans folks and multicultural people who live in the in-between spaces and want to thrive as their full selves.

My framework is feminist, liberatory and imaginal. 

Approaches to treatment - EMDR, Ego State, Parts Work, PolyVagal Theory Informed, Body-Center and Somatics, Self Compassion and Mindfulness. 

Formal training: Masters of Counseling Psychology, Meridian University, 2018. Gestalt and Psychosynthesis Counseling Training, META-Center, Norway 2012. EMRD Basic Training, 2021.
