How it started
Grove Emotional Health Collaborative was founded by Dr. Thomas Atkins, MD; Carryn Lund, LMSW, RYT; and Alison Roth-Kerner, LMSW in December 2016. The three met while completing their respective psychiatry and social work fellowships at the University of Michigan Health System. They individually made their way to private practice after completion of their fellowships and reunited in April of 2015 with the goal of supporting one another and providing effective, well-rounded care to clients.
it’s in the name
The name Grove was chosen not just as a nod to our beloved tree-town Ann Arbor. It’s also a symbol of the symbiotic, mutually-beneficial relationship trees have with one another. Trees exist in relationships helping each other to be strong, healthy, and stable across their lifespan. Beneath the surface of the earth, the roots of trees in a grove intertwine with one another, sharing vital nutrients and offering support to one another as needed. This represents the collaborative nature of our practice, both with one another and with clients.
our commitment
At Grove, collaborative care means many things. We’re committed to collaborating with you to help you meet your goals for care. We offer individual therapy, medication management, yoga, mindfulness, and various groups all on site to increase your access to integrative approaches. We also offer multidisciplinary care; we collaborate with one another to ensure that you receive informed and thoughtful care.
