Therapy Staff & Bios

Adult Therapist:  Allison Graham, LMSW

You might want to work with Allison if you’re a self-proclaimed overthinker, or you’ve experienced shame about your body and/or sexuality because of the sexual trauma you’ve experienced. Allison has been with the Wichita Area Sexual Assault Center (WASAC) since 2018, and in the role of adult therapist since 2020. She received both her undergraduate and graduate degrees in Social Work from Wichita State University.

Allison uses a person-centered and integrative approach to therapy – pulling ideas from many different modalities and perspectives, such as somatic experiencing, emotionally focused therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy, narrative therapy, attachment theory, mindful self-compassion and inner child work. Allison facilitates an adult women survivor group at WASAC.

When Allison is not at work, she’s going on walks, traveling, trying some new creative thing or reading a good book.

Therapist:  Rachel Gronbach, M.Ed., LCPC

Rachel sees both children & adults and is in our Winfield and Wellington offices on Tuesdays and Thursdays.

Rachel has been working as a counselor for nine years. She specializes in treating survivors of sexual and domestic violence. Rachel is passionate about creating a safe, affirming space for teens and adults of all genders, races, classes, and abilities. Rachel loves art and often uses creativity in her counseling sessions. In her free time, Rachel likes to read and watch movies (mostly horror and fantasy), is a huge animal lover, and is always crafting something!

Rachel has a Bachelor’s degree in Women’s Studies and Sociology and a Master’s degree in Counseling. She is currently studying to get a degree in Art Therapy.

You might be a good fit with Rachel, if the sexual violence you experienced is affecting you in any of these ways:

  • You’re nervous about talking about your emotions or history and are open to using art
  • You’re struggling to love your body and wanting to feel more comfortable in your skin
  • You’re exploring or questioning your sexual or gender identity
