About Aurilia

Aurilia Gray-Grimes is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) in Florida with seven years of clinical experience. She also brings over 25 years of service work in faith-based settings supporting single mothers, young adults, and people facing relationship challenges. Her practice focuses on stress, anxiety, grief, anger, self-esteem, depression, and relationship concerns. She speaks English and works with adults in Florida.

Gray-Grimes centers sessions on practical tools clients can use between meetings. She works collaboratively so clients set the pace and direction of therapy. Conversations often include building anger management skills, improving communication, and addressing control issues that increase daily tension.

Her background in community and faith-based settings influences how she addresses life purpose, isolation, and women's issues. She also helps people process guilt, shame, and the emotional impact of not having a partner. Sessions may explore self-love and steps toward clearer boundaries and decision-making.

Therapy draws on several approaches, including client-centered work, cognitive behavioral techniques, emotionally-focused ideas, EMDR, and motivational interviewing. Those methods are used to help people name patterns, shift reactions, and try new behaviors in everyday life. The emphasis is on practical change rather than labels.

To begin, a short matching questionnaire is completed and a first session is scheduled through the site's booking flow. Costs vary by location and use a subscription model that can be canceled at any time.

How sessions work

How her approaches translate to online work

Client-centered therapy focuses on the client’s experience and goals. The therapist listens, reflects, and helps people name what matters most. This approach supports clearer goals for managing anger and improving relationships.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at links between thoughts, feelings, and actions. It offers practical exercises to test new behaviors and reduce automatic reactions like snapping or shutting down. CBT is useful for stress, anxiety, and anger management.

Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) helps identify and change interaction patterns that keep people stuck. It can be helpful when communication problems and relationship strain feed into anger and isolation.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss goals, try methods that fit your needs, and adjust the plan together. That collaborative process helps decide whether CBT, EFT, EMDR, motivational interviewing, or client-centered techniques will be emphasized.

Session formats are not listed in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. In general, online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a workday, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. Ask about session length and any video or phone options during the scheduling step.
