"Two of our children get counseling through Grit City Counseling and the progress they have made has been amazing. Both of their therapists are so talented. The owner also waived fees and gave so many options to continue services when we lost our health insurance due to a job loss, it was so helpful to not have to worry about stopping their therapy."

"Hands down the best therapy I have ever gotten. I’ve never had a therapist that actually gets Autism and knows how to help me with issues other like my grief and trauma. Every other therapist just wants to focus on why Autism is creating problems, but here they actually help and know how to make me feel comfortable and safe." Google Review
