About Gracia

Gracia Clark is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Wisconsin and a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor (LPCC) in Minnesota with six years of counseling experience. She works with a range of concerns that include stress, anxiety, depression, addictions, relationship and intimacy issues, trauma and abuse, eating and body image struggles, grief, parenting strains, and mood concerns such as bipolar disorder.

Gracia uses straightforward, skill-based methods to help people notice thoughts and habits that keep problems going. She draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to identify thought patterns, practice different responses, and build small, manageable changes. She also uses Attachment-Based and Client-Centered approaches to focus on relationship patterns and on listening without judgment.

Sessions are practical and direct. Gracia combines coaching-style feedback with time to process emotions. She helps people work on communication problems, commitment worries, codependency, control issues, and difficulties tied to adoption, abandonment, or family of origin concerns.

She has additional experience with substance and behavioral addictions, dissociation, domestic violence aftermath, chronic illness or pain, and eating-related issues. Her approach includes elements from Dialectical Behavior Therapy when emotion regulation skills are needed.

Gracia works in Minnesota and offers services in English. Cost varies by location and uses a subscription that can be canceled at any time. To start, complete the matching questionnaire and schedule an initial session.

How Gracia brings CBT and relational work to online sessions

Gracia integrates Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy into focused, skills-based work. CBT helps people spot automatic thoughts, test if those thoughts fit the facts, and try different behaviors in daily life. ACT adds attention to values and practical steps for committing to meaningful actions even when emotions are strong.

She also uses Attachment-Based ideas to look at patterns in close relationships. That approach helps identify how early or current relationship experiences shape reactions and communication. Together these methods are used to address anxiety, relationship problems, trauma impacts, and emotion regulation needs in clear, structured ways.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Gracia will talk with each person about goals and preferences, and then recommend steps and exercises to try. This is a collaborative process where methods are adjusted based on what helps most.

The therapist's profile does not name specific session formats here, so confirm current session options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit meetings into a weekday or lunch break, reduce travel time, and allow a shorter check-in when schedules are tight. Ask about format details when scheduling to match the practical needs of daily life.
