Terri Grumieaux, LCSW

Terri Grumieaux is an Indiana licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) with 26 years of practice. She focuses on stress, anxiety, motivation, self-esteem, confidence, and depression. She also works with trauma, addictions, grief, and people coping with major life changes.

She starts by listening to each person’s story and identifying strengths they already have. Sessions look at thoughts and habits that keep problems going. The work is practical and geared toward small, doable changes clients can try between meetings.

Terri uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy alongside Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and client-centered methods. That means she helps people notice unhelpful thinking patterns, try different ways of responding, and clarify personal values to guide choices. She also draws on skills from Dialectical Behavior Therapy and Emotionally-Focused Therapy when those tools fit the issue.

Appointments often focus on concrete goals such as reducing panic symptoms, managing seasonal low mood, improving communication, or handling compassion fatigue. She pays attention to how emotions and behavior interact and teaches strategies to interrupt negative cycles. Progress is measured by what changes in daily life rather than labels or tests.

Terri works in English and practices in Indiana. Practical steps are emphasized from the first session: define a problem, pick a skill to try, and check what helped. Prospective clients are asked to confirm current session options before booking.
