About
I’m a psychiatric mental health nurse practitioner who believes healing happens through a collaborative, person-centered approach that respects your lived experience while grounding care in evidence-based practice.
I am a psychiatric mental health nurse practitioner (PMHNP) with 12 years of experience providing evidence-based psychiatric care to adolescents and adults. I support individuals experiencing anxiety, depression, mood disorders, trauma-related concerns, and challenges related to major life transitions. My approach is collaborative and person-centered, with an emphasis on understanding the full context of each client’s lived experience.
I earned my master’s degree in nursing from Walden University. I specialize in comprehensive psychiatric evaluations, thoughtful medication management, and shared decision-making. When medication is part of treatment, I prioritize education, careful monitoring, and ongoing adjustments to ensure care aligns with each client’s goals and values.
I strive to create a safe, nonjudgmental space where clients feel heard, respected, and empowered. Whether you are seeking symptom relief, greater self-understanding, or support during a difficult season, I will work alongside you at a pace that feels right. Together, we will focus on meaningful progress and sustainable mental well-being.

As a therapist who believes healing happens in a collaborative and compassionate space, I bring years of experience walking alongside individuals as they rediscover their inner strength and rewrite their personal stories.
Hi, I'm Veronica Grimes, a licensed professional counselor. I earned my Master's Degree in Counseling from Grand Canyon University and have five years of experience in residential and private practice. My approach is rooted in CBT, DBT, and ACT. I work with adults and young adults who feel overwhelmed, stuck, or disconnected from the life they want. Many clients face chronic anxiety, burnout, difficult transitions, or past trauma impacts. They are often high-achievers or deeply caring individuals seeking relief from a harsh inner critic, wanting healthier relationships, and looking to reclaim balance, purpose, and self-compassion.
My therapeutic style is collaborative, and gently active. I don't believe in a one-size-fits-all approach; I blend CBT, ACT, and mindfulness to match your rhythm and personality. I specialize in anxiety disorders, professional burnout, and complex life transitions. You can expect a judgment-free environment with steady encouragement and occasional humor.
Choosing to start therapy takes courage, and you don't have to carry your struggles alone. Healing is deeply personal, and I'm here alongside you every single step. Your story matters, and a more balanced, fulfilling life is entirely possible. When you're ready, I invite you to schedule our first session so we can start building your path forward.

Yes, there are therapists who help with anger via Anger management therapy. It’s a therapeutic process that an individual goes through to manage their anger and identify its triggers. They’re given clear instructions on how to improve their angry behavior as well as a safe space for opening up about their emotions.
Once an individual’s triggers are identified, anger management therapy focuses on helping the individual process and respond to these emotions in a more positive and productive manner. The anger management therapist will provide coping strategies and ultimately help their client take back control of their anger.
The five keys to mastering anger include identifying triggers, pausing before reacting, calmly expressing emotions, discovering constructive outlets for frustration, and seeking professional assistance if necessary. Acquiring these skills through Anger management therapy empowers individuals to effectively manage and navigate their anger.
The best therapy for anger management often involves cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), which helps individuals identify and change patterns of thinking and behavior related to anger.
Anger management therapy at Thriveworks is conducted both in person and online by video. We encourage you to choose the option that works best for you.
Often, Anger management therapy lasts between 4-6 weeks. However, it can last longer, dependent on the individual’s needs.
Includes individual, couples, child/ teen, & family therapy
Includes reducing symptoms with medication & management
