About Grace

Grace Szeja is a licensed clinical social worker who helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression, and life changes. She also supports those dealing with self-esteem, grief, trauma and abuse, parenting concerns, career questions, and issues related to identity and belonging. Grace uses a warm, direct style to help people find clearer footing when life feels uncertain.

Grace draws on ten years of clinical experience, including work in hospital settings with a wide range of concerns.

Background and approach

She brings a practical focus to sessions and often mixes talking with creative activities like drawing, journaling, sand tray work, and clay. This blend aims to meet different ways people process feelings and memories. Her approach centers on the person in front of her.

Grace uses client-centered practices to explore what matters most to each person. She pairs that with cognitive behavioral tools to notice and shift thought patterns and with dialectical behavior practices to build steady coping skills when emotions run high. Grace also integrates ideas from existential and attachment-based therapy to help people name what gives life meaning and to understand long-standing relationship patterns.

She hopes to help clients make decisions that reflect their values rather than old fears or obligations. Outside of clinical work she has a background in fine arts and brings that creative perspective into therapy. Grace lives in Florida, enjoys gardening and distance running, and uses she/her pronouns.

Online support

How Grace blends approaches for online care

Existential therapy helps people look at meaning, choice, and what matters most in life. It can be useful for those wrestling with purpose, midlife questions, emptiness, or big transitions. Attachment-based therapy focuses on relationship patterns and how early bonds shape current trust and closeness; it can help people understand family of origin issues and attachment struggles.

Grace also uses client-centered methods that put the person's experience first, offering a respectful, nonjudgmental space to talk. She combines these approaches with practical tools so therapy stays grounded in the client's goals. Deciding which approach to use is collaborative - she will work with each person to pick methods that fit their needs, goals, and preferences rather than imposing a single style.

Online sessions are offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to provide flexibility. Video works well for deeper conversation and visual activities, phone sessions are useful when bandwidth is limited, live chat can suit short check-ins, and text messaging supports ongoing reflection between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life and to continue work even when travel or schedules change.
