About Grace
Grace Wolbrink is a Licensed Master Social Worker (LMSW) with 35 years of experience helping people move out of survival mode and into clearer, more purposeful lives. She practices from Michigan and speaks English. Grace focuses on practical steps people can use right away to feel steadier and more confident.
Her work covers many concerns, including trauma and abuse, grief, anxiety, depression, stress, self-esteem, ADHD, and career questions. She also supports those facing caregiver strain, aging and geriatric issues, compassion fatigue, and the effects of disaster or domestic violence.
How Grace works
Grace pays attention to financial strain, life purpose, isolation, veteran and first responder issues, and women's health matters. In sessions she blends cognitive and narrative tools with solution-focused coaching. That means she helps people spot unhelpful thinking, tell the story they need to tell, and set small goals that add up.
Conversations are straightforward and action-oriented - people leave with clear next steps, not just ideas. Grace aims for an approachable, down-to-earth style. She listens for practical barriers and works with clients to build habits that fit daily life.
She also brings decades of varied experience from hospitals and community settings to each session. People who want to balance emotional work with concrete life changes may find her approach useful. Grace helps clients identify what matters, remove obstacles, and take manageable steps toward a life that feels more aligned and sustainable.

Online support options
Approaches that translate well to online care
Grace uses cognitive behavioral techniques to help people recognize unhelpful thinking patterns and try small experiments that change how they feel and act. CBT is useful for anxiety, depression, stress, and many everyday worries. She also uses Narrative Therapy to help people reframe the stories they tell about themselves, which can reduce shame and open new possibilities. Narrative work often helps after trauma, loss, or periods of major change.Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Grace treats the process as collaborative - she listens to goals, tests what helps, and adjusts methods to fit each person's needs and preferences. That means plans may blend cognitive tools, narrative reframing, and solution-focused steps until something clicks.
Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to provide flexibility. Video lets people use face-to-face interaction when useful, phone can be easier when bandwidth is limited, and messaging is helpful for brief check-ins or ongoing support. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy lives and to keep momentum between longer appointments.
