Obsessive-compulsive disorder therapists & psychiatrists in Fort Pierce, FL

Hello! I have over 25 years of experience walking alongside individuals through both challenging and transformative moments. I believe people heal best when they feel genuinely seen, understood, and supported, and I strive to create a therapeutic space where clients can safely explore their emotions, experiences, and personal growth without judgment.

I help individuals build resilience, expand their capacity to tolerate distress, and strengthen emotional regulation skills that support long-term well-being. My approach is compassionate, collaborative, and tailored to each person’s unique needs and goals. I believe meaningful change happens over time, and I work to support clients in growing at a pace that feels both safe and empowering.

Hey, I’m Niki — I’m a therapist who loves working with people in all stages of recovery, whether you’re newly sober, years into it, or simply trying to reconnect with yourself after major life changes. I help adults explore behavioral patterns, long-term sobriety, self-discovery, and identity as they figure out who they are beyond the challenges they’ve faced.

I know from both personal and professional experience that healing isn’t linear. As a mom and someone who’s faced her own mental health and substance use challenges, I bring understanding, honesty, and zero judgment to our sessions. My goal is to create a space where you can show up exactly as you are — no pressure, no pretense.

I bring eight years of prior experience as an adult and pediatric emergency room nurse. My background in acute care has given me a strong foundation in crisis intervention, compassionate listening, and evidence-based clinical judgment.

I was born in Los Angeles, spent 15 years living in Hawaii, and now reside in Miami, Florida. My diverse life experiences — including traveling to 23 countries — have shaped my cultural awareness and deep respect for the unique perspectives of every individual I serve.

I believe that mental wellness involves treating the whole person, not just their symptoms. My goal is to create a supportive, collaborative environment where you feel heard, empowered, and equipped to build meaningful, lasting change in your life.

I have been working in the helping professions my entire adult life. I first became licensed over 25 years ago and have had the pleasure of helping many people over the years, both online and in my private practice. While serving on the Faculty at The Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine as the Assistant Director for the Office of Clinical Services and Senior Data Analyst, I learned the importance of setting measurable outcomes and establishing goals for treatment.

I'm Patricia Grullón, a licensed marriage and family therapist working with children, teens, and adults. I specialize in life transitions, anxiety, depression, ADHD, and relationship challenges — and I'm here to help you understand yourself more deeply.

A bit about me

I bring lived experience to this work. I've navigated my own transitions, relational challenges, and the journey of being an immigrant — and that shapes how I show up for my clients every day. I believe deeply in the healing power of therapy, and I've seen firsthand what's possible when you commit to the process.

I work with:

• Individuals navigating anxiety, life transitions, identity, and self-worth
• Couples and families working through conflict, communication breakdowns, and disconnection
• Professionals processing career loss, burnout, reinvention, and the grief that comes with it
• My approach is warm, direct, and collaborative. I don't believe in one-size-fits-all therapy. I believe in meeting you exactly where you are — and helping you figure out where you actually want to go.
