Jami Rieffel, LMFT

Founder & Therapist, CoAuthored Therapy

I believe therapy is most powerful when it feels like a story we write together. I bring a collaborative, narrative-based approach to working with individuals, couples, and families. My goal is to create a space where clients feel both supported and empowered to re-author the stories that shape their lives.

I earned my Master’s degree in Marriage and Family Therapy from National University, where I focused on systems theory and narrative practice. Over the years, I’ve worked with diverse populations supporting clients through challenges such as relationship transitions, trauma recovery, and identity exploration.

Dr. Von Grubbs

Dr. Von Grubbs

Psychologist

Virtual • Georgia


I’m a licensed psychologist offering virtual therapy for adults across Georgia. My work focuses on understanding the experiences that shaped you—and supporting you as you build new, healthier ways of moving forward. With nearly three decades as a psychologist— and years of experience in healthcare management leadership roles— I’ve learned that life is complex, but healing is always possible.

I work with adults who are dealing with anxiety, depression, stress and old wounds that still affect them today. Many of my clients come in experiencing worry and overthinking, feelings of not being good enough, or struggles with significant loss or major life changes. My clients are often looking for relief or to feel better about themselves, while others come to therapy wanting to understand what shaped them—the beliefs, experiences, and survival strategies that still influence how they think, feel, and relate to others. I also specialize in supporting LGBTQ+ individuals, and as a member of that community, I understand many of the experiences my clients bring in.
