Meet VS Grenier

Virginia S Grenier is a Mental Health Counseling Intern currently finishing a Master's degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling at Rocky Mountain University of Health Professions. She sees clients in a private practice located in St George, Utah. Before entering the counseling world, Grenier spent decades writing, editing, and advocating. She is a Mom's Choice Silver Honoree, an award-winning author, and former director of the St. George Book Festival. Grenier has made significant contributions to children's and young adult literature with multiple books and short stories published, as well as nonfiction works for children and adults. 

Balancing her professional endeavors with a rich family life, Grenier draws inspiration from her personal experiences to inform her writing, advocacy, and creative projects. Her longstanding commitment to supporting others is further evidenced by her role as a nationally credentialed Victim Advocate through NOVA's NACP. She has walked alongside survivors navigating the hard, non-linear paths of grief, trauma, and growth. Her work and own life experiences have taught her that healing isn't about fixing...it's about finding meaning, reclaiming voice, and gently rewriting the story we tell ourselves.
