Hi, I’m Grove Abloom!

I’m the mind and heart behind everything you see here. My journey with Growing with Grove began when I arrived at a true place of healing and alignment.

For the first 23 years of my life, I moved through the world with undiagnosed Autism and ADHD. My childhood was both traumatic and isolating; as the child of low-income immigrants who were focused solely on survival, they simply did not have the capacity or the understanding of how to show up for me. As an adult, I found myself replaying those early interactions and holding tightly to my self-protective measures. CPTSD is no stranger to me.

It took a long, dedicated journey of therapy, self-exploration, astrology, psychology, and many painful human experiences — but I finally found my freedom. I found my home in myself.

Growing with Grove is what I wish I had on my own healing journey. You don't have to continue to hold that pain, that isolation. My goal is to expedite and clarify your healing and self-discovery journey by offering you the wisdom and experiences I've accumulated over the years in clear, more concise, and action-oriented ways.

When I’m not researching, writing, or reflecting on the universe, you can usually find me cuddling with my two cats, forcing my loved ones to enjoy the nature around us, or playing a nice game (or 100) of Sudoku.

I believe that we are each responsible for our own growth and healing, and I’m so glad you’ve decided to plant yourself here for a while.
