Grisell Vazquez, LMHC

Hey there — I’m so glad you found your way here. I’m Grisell, a licensed therapist working with adults who are ready to heal from the inside out. If you’ve felt stuck, disconnected, or like something’s just off, you’re not alone—and you don’t have to figure it all out by yourself. I bring a mind-body approach to therapy that goes beyond just talking, helping you tap into your body’s own wisdom and natural ability to heal (with a little guidance from me, of course). OFFERINGS I provide one-on-one sessions in a supportive, grounded, and judgment-free space—whether you're navigating anxiety, trauma, burnout, or the fog of a big life change, our sessions will be a space to pause, process, and come back home to yourself. In addition to traditional in-office and virtual therapy, I also offer Walk & Talk Therapy for clients who feel more grounded moving and connecting outdoors, as well as Corporate Wellness Workshops for workplaces and organizations ready to support the wellbeing of their people. HOW I WORK I take a holistic, collaborative approach to therapy—meaning we’ll look at your full picture: your history, your body, your environment, your intuition, and your goals. I blend science with softness, structure with soul. My work integrates: • Brainspotting (BSP) – a brain-body therapy that helps the nervous system process trauma and stuck emotions • CBT – tools to notice, challenge, and reframe unhelpful thought patterns • Mindfulness-based practices – to bring more awareness, calm, and presence into your daily life • Somatic strategies – to help you get out of your head and into your body, releasing tension and promoting real change I also collaborate with other wellness providers (think bodyworkers, doctors, nutritionists) when needed. Healing is rarely linear, and definitely not one-size-fits-all. WALK & TALK THERAPY Sometimes healing happens more easily when you’re moving. Walk & Talk Therapy offers the same supportive, one-on-one therapy experience—but outdoors, side by side, and in motion. These sessions are ideal if you feel restless sitting in an office, struggle to open up in traditional therapy, or simply feel more grounded in nature. Because I take a mind-body approach, I’ve found that movement and nature can help the nervous system soften, improve focus, reduce anxiety, and create a sense of forward movement—both physically and emotionally. We’ll walk at your pace while we talk through whatever’s on your mind. Walk & Talk Therapy may be a good fit if you: • Feel stuck, overwhelmed, or disconnected • Process better while moving • Struggle with anxiety, ADHD, overthinking, or stress • Want a more relaxed, natural therapy experience • Love being outside and feel more like yourself in nature Sessions are offered in a safe, local outdoor setting and are available for established clients when clinically appropriate. CORPORATE WELLNESS WORKSHOPS Because burnout, overwhelm, and people-pleasing don’t magically stay at home when we go to work. As someone who spent years in commercial construction before becoming a therapist, I understand what it’s like to work in high-pressure environments, juggle too much, and keep pushing through while quietly running on empty. That experience is part of why I’m so passionate about helping workplaces create healthier, more sustainable ways of supporting their people. I offer wellness workshops for businesses, schools, and organizations looking to better support their employees, teams, or students. These workshops are designed to be engaging, relatable, and practical—not awkward or overly “corporate.” My workshops blend mental health education, nervous system tools, and real-life strategies people can actually use. Popular workshop topics include: • Burnout prevention and stress management • Nervous system regulation in the workplace • Boundaries, people-pleasing, and learning to say no • Managing anxiety and overwhelm • Supporting women balancing many roles • Workplace communication and conflict Additional topics can be customized to fit the needs of your team or organization. Workshops are available in-person or virtually. If you’re interested in bringing a workshop to your workplace or organization, please reach out through the Contact page or schedule a consultation call. COUNSELING STUDENT + NEW THERAPIST CONSULTATION You don’t have to figure out this field alone. I offer consultation sessions for counseling students, registered interns, and new therapists who are looking for support, guidance, and a place to ask the questions they don’t always feel comfortable asking elsewhere. Whether you’re navigating practicum or internship, preparing for licensure, building confidence as a new therapist, or dreaming about starting a private practice someday, I’m here to help. I can support you with: • Building confidence and identity as a therapist • Difficult cases and feeling stuck • Brainspotting and mind-body approaches • Navigating practicum, internship, and licensure • Starting and growing a private practice • Insurance panels, paperwork, and systems • Finding your niche and building a brand that feels like you My approach is warm, honest, collaborative, and realistic. No gatekeeping, no pretending to have it all figured out—just supportive guidance from someone who has been where you are. WHAT TO EXPECT Therapy with me is collaborative, conversational, and sometimes even fun (yes, healing can have humor). I’ll meet you where you are, and together we’ll work through patterns that no longer serve you—whether that means easing anxiety, navigating burnout, healing trauma, or finally feeling like you can breathe again. WHO I WORK WELL WITH If you're an adult who feels like you’ve spent years taking care of everyone else, holding it all together, or trying to think your way out of what you feel—you’re in the right place. I work especially well with deep feelers, people-pleasers, cycle breakers, and those navigating life transitions, burnout, anxiety, trauma, relationship struggles, or simply feeling disconnected from themselves. If you’ve done the self-help books, tried talking it out, and still feel like something’s missing—maybe it’s time to go deeper. I help adults reconnect with their inner knowing, clear emotional residue, and shift the patterns that keep them stuck. WHY WORK WITH GÜD KARMA COUNSELING? Intentional, individualized care—not a big, clinical practice. Here’s what you can expect when we work together: • Full confidentiality and flexibility in your care • No diagnostic label required for self-pay clients • Quick responses between sessions when you need support • Space to feel truly seen, not just “treated” THE THERAPEUTIC RELATIONSHIP MATTERS The connection between us is everything. You deserve to work with someone who sees you fully, without judgment—someone who honors your story and believes in your capacity to heal. I show up as my real self, so you can too. INSURANCE + OUT-OF-NETWORK OPTIONS I’m in network with most major insurance providers—check my Services page for a full list. Not in network? No worries. I’ve partnered with Thrizer, a service that helps you access out-of-network benefits easily and get reimbursed for sessions. LOOKING FOR SOMETHING BEYOND TRADITIONAL THERAPY? Whether you’re interested in one-on-one therapy, Walk & Talk sessions, or bringing a wellness workshop to your workplace, there’s space for you here.
