I’ve had a wonderful experience with Kristy. She is an excellent listener who truly understands and validates my concerns. She provides helpful resources and practical skills that have made a real difference in how I cope with challenges. Beyond her expertise, she is a genuinely kind and compassionate person who creates a safe and supportive environment. I highly recommend her to anyone seeking thoughtful and effective therapy.

Kristy is amazing! She truly listens to me, and together we focus on achieving my goals. I've been working with her for over a year now, and I couldn’t be happier with everything we’ve accomplished together.

in the month that I was in therapy, all I really have to say is that Kristy was always there to talk to me and she provided very healthy, supportive ways to get me through my anxiety. I still struggle with it, but she taught me how to control it better. I would highly recommend her.

Kristy was great and very helpful with what I was going through.

Kristy Groves is a superb therapist. She not only fully listens to the patient/client's needs, she also rephrases her understanding of the issue back as a question. To establish full understanding between both patient and therapist. She is willing to offer various methods of treatment, and is not one to force treatment on a patient, should they decline. Highly recommended.
