Torian Grant, LPC Associate

under the supervision of Tia Jennings, LPC-S

Many people get disillusioned with everyday life for various reasons. Maybe you came from a family full of dysfunction and you broke away, but now you’re struggling to not be defined by things they’ve said and done. Maybe you recently lost a loved one due to them being deceased or having to cut contact for a specific reason. Maybe you’re going through some anxiety because you’re uncertain about what the future holds for you, whether it’s career wise or not knowing what’s next after getting out of a certain situation. You might be going through some bouts of depression and you’re still functioning at this moment while going through life, but not sure how long you can keep going in this direction at this rate. Maybe life is just beating the shit out you in general and you’re just struggling to define who you are and how you fit in this world.

Hi, I’m Torian, LPC Associate.

I know exactly how it feels when it seems that the day-to-day pressures won’t let go of your mind. I know exactly how it feels to have the pressure of striving to be the generational curse breaker in your family when most people won’t understand. I know exactly how it feels to be broken up when a loved one passes away or when you fall out with somebody you love dearly. I know exactly how it feels to be without direction and not know the left from the right.

I know exactly how it feels to have sleepless nights and to be holding on to your sanity by a thread, but it’s starting to not be enough and you’re heading towards crashing out. I’ve been you, and at times I’m STILL you. Life has knocked me down too like it does us all; I’ve just put in a lot of work to overcome some of these issues and more, which is why I do the work that I do.

I want to

help you not just work through your mental health, but to master your perspective about it. I will help you implement strategies that you will be able to draw on long after our time together is done. I will approach our work together not by telling you what to do, but keeping you at the center of your story by putting you in the driver’s seat while I ride shotgun on your healing journey, all while helping you reframe any negativity and stay focused on available solutions.

You are not your worst thoughts and feelings, and they don’t need to hold you back. These things can be used as stepping stones to become a greater, more solid version of self. Even if you’ve been through this dark place before, we can get you through it again. Book with me today and find out why this is not the end, but the beginning.

I have worked with a variety of different people; I have experience assisting individuals (adults, youth, and children) and couples of diverse ethnic groups as well as various sexual orientations.

My main techniques for helping clients are PCT (person-centered therapy) with some techniques taken from CBT (cognitive-behavioral therapy) and SFBT (solution-focused brief therapy) to holistically address the needs of the whole person. Lastly, I won’t ever tell you what to do but I will serve as your guide. I will challenge and/or confront you as needed while you take the driver’s seat in the journey to your own personal healing. Therapy might not be the end of all your challenges or problems, but learning various coping mechanisms, tools, and skills will help you to create a healthy way to handle issues/challenges that may come in the future for a lifetime.
