About Gracia
Gracia Clark is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) and Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor (LPCC) practicing in Minnesota with six years of experience. She works with adults on concerns such as anxiety, depression, relationships, addictions, grief, parenting stress, and family of origin issues. Gracia also addresses issues like body image, attachment concerns, and coping with life changes.
Her approach blends practical, evidence-based tools with a focus on relationships and attachment. She uses cognitive behavioral techniques to notice and change unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns. Dialectical behavior strategies help with emotional regulation and coping in intense moments.
Gracia draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to identify personal values and take value-based actions, and she uses client-centered methods to keep sessions collaborative and grounded in the client's perspective. Attachment-based ideas guide work on repeating patterns that trace back to childhood relationships and family roles.
In sessions she is straightforward while remaining respectful. Conversations often include skill practice, examining repeated patterns, and setting small goals for change. She can help people untangle how early family expectations still shape their choices and relationships today.
Her background includes counseling across settings with people who face addictions, trauma, mood disorders, and relationship struggles. She offers a practical, conversational style that aims to reduce overwhelm and create concrete next steps for moving forward.
Approaches used and how online sessions work
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on clarifying what matters to a person and taking small steps toward those values while accepting difficult thoughts or feelings. ACT can be helpful for people dealing with anxiety, depression, or repetitive unhelpful patterns.Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationship patterns influence current connections and behavior. This approach helps people spot repeated roles from their family of origin and try new ways of relating to others.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Gracia will collaborate with clients to choose which methods fit a person's goals and preferences. That can mean using CBT skills one week, practicing DBT-style emotion regulation the next, and focusing on attachment patterns when relationship themes come up.
