Mind Over Grind PLLC was created when I understood the journeys of life do not have to be a struggle. In fact, when we learn why we experience the things that we do, life becomes much easier.

Mind is short for mindfulness practices and Grind represents our push and forceful nature to make things happen. Mind Over Grind is a call to be more mindful and less forceful as we navigate through life.

My name is Sederia and I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker who is passionate about working with individuals and families who struggle with both physical and mental health challenges.

In my experience working in healthcare settings, I've found that our physical health is often interconnected with our mental well-being and I have made it my mission to provide clinical care and guidance to those experiencing hardships and existential crisis.

Stress, anxiety and depression often present physically in the form of muscle tension, gastroenteritis issues, weight fluctuations, hair loss, etc. We tend to downplay these symptoms and rarely look at the underlying causes and conditions. When we isolate our physical challenges from our mental, we miss the mark in rejuvenating our mind, body, and spirit.

The complexities of the human condition require that we find purpose, meaning and connection in our lives. When we are deficient in any of these areas, we often begin to experience a lack of self-esteem, self-worth and value, which manifests heavily in our personal relationships and professional lives.

So, what's the solution? What if I told you that you had the key all along, and amplifying your strengths could help you unlock a sense of fulfilment. Through strength-based, solution-focused and mindfulness-centric approaches, I can support you through the challenges you are currently experiencing and help you remove the barriers that have been blocking you from accessing your internal resources. We all have the capacity to find nourishment and fuel from within.
