Grace Lee, LCSW — Therapist in California

Hi there, I'm Grace!

I work with individuals and families facing medical challenges, at-risk youth, and students in competitive environments. I meet you where you are and help you find greater understanding of who you are and peace in your current surroundings.

My focus

I work with individuals and couples facing relationship challenges, processing current and past traumas, and dealing with chronic depression and anxiety. I help clients make decisions on important relationships and navigate various life transitions.

My approach

My approach centers on safety and connection. I know sharing your life, weaknesses, hurts, and fears is vulnerable, and I hope you'll find me a safe place to share honestly. We'll work together to understand the pieces of your life and how they fit cohesively. I utilize various therapeutic modalities tailored to your needs.

My communication style

I create a safe, nurturing, open environment where you can express your thoughts and feelings freely. My style is easy-going and often client-led, but I can also provide more direction and guidance when needed.

My journey to mental healthcare

Therapy personally provided the support I needed to work through cultural differences and childhood pain. I find the therapeutic process healing and encouraging, both as a participant and as a guide, seeing clients have breakthroughs and operate in greater mental health.

My goals for you

Goal setting is a collaborative process. I'm here to help you reach your destination. Those who dedicate time, effort, and determination experience the most significant change. I walk at your pace as your guide, support, and encourager.

Our first session

Our first session covers logistics, then we get to know one another and answer your questions. We'll see if our connection will lead to collaborative, fruitful work together. I look forward to hearing about your journey and being invited to explore with you.
