About Grace
Grace Lee is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with 21 years of practice in California. She uses a practical, down-to-earth style to help people manage stress, anxiety, addictions, grief, and parenting concerns. She listens closely and focuses on steps you can try between sessions.
Grace holds a Master of Social Welfare and an LCSW, and she has worked in hospital settings and with people facing crisis and end-of-life issues. Her background includes work with older adults, transitional-aged adults, people managing substance use, and those with serious mental health conditions.
Background and approach
This range shapes a flexible approach to care. EMDR, or Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing, is part of her toolkit. She uses it when trauma, abandonment, phobias, or relationship wounds come up.
Grace adapts techniques to each person's needs rather than following a single script. Sessions are collaborative and focused on practical coping skills. She helps people break problems into workable steps and practices tools together in session.
Many clients use therapy to build routines for mood, manage anger, or cope with major life changes. Grace also supports people dealing with caregiver stress, chronic illness or pain, codependency, and recovery from domestic violence or divorce. Her aim is to meet people where they are and help them move toward steadier daily functioning.

How EMDR and online sessions can fit your needs
EMDR, or Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing, is a method Grace uses to help people process traumatic memories and relationship wounds. It often involves focused attention and guided processing to reduce intense reactions tied to past events.Grace pairs EMDR with practical coping strategies for issues like anxiety, addiction recovery, grief, and parenting strain. She explains options and works together with each person to choose what feels most helpful for their goals and situation.
Online therapy offers flexible ways to meet. Video calls are useful when visual cues and a more conversational session matter. Phone sessions work well if bandwidth is limited or a simpler check-in is needed. Live chat and text-based messaging allow shorter, frequent check-ins or written reflections between sessions.
Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Grace assesses needs, discusses EMDR and other options, and tailors a plan that fits the person's goals, schedule, and comfort with different session formats. This helps people balance therapy with work, caregiving, and daily life.
