About Grace
Grace Borneman is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Pennsylvania with 15 years of experience. She works with adults who are dealing with stress, anxiety, depression, trauma, and major life changes. She also focuses on concerns like self-esteem, social anxiety, guilt and shame, isolation, and questions about life purpose.
Grace uses evidence-based techniques to help people name what they are feeling and make concrete changes. In sessions she helps clients examine limiting beliefs, develop clearer responses to stress, and practice skills that can reduce anxious thoughts and low mood. She talks through the practical effects of trauma and guides people toward manageable coping strategies.
She also supports work around forgiveness and self-love. That can look like learning to notice self-critical patterns, practicing new ways of relating to oneself, and trying behavioral experiments that build small successes. Grace treats feelings of isolation with steps to rebuild connection and handle social anxiety in real situations.
Her approach is collaborative and straightforward. She helps people sort priorities, weigh options, and try out new habits that fit daily life. Sessions emphasize skills people can use between appointments to cope with stress and move through transitional periods.
Clients who are considering therapy with Grace should expect clear talk, practical strategies, and steady attention to life goals such as finding stronger purpose after change. She offers care in English and sees clients in Pennsylvania.
Approaches used and how they translate to online work
Grace uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on practical change. One common approach is cognitive behavioral work, which helps people identify unhelpful thoughts and test new, more balanced ways of thinking. This method is useful for anxiety, depression, and social fears because it produces concrete exercises to try between sessions.Another frequently used method is trauma-informed care, which pays attention to how past hurt affects current reactions and helps people build steady coping skills. This work often includes grounding strategies and stepwise exposure to difficult memories or situations, which can reduce avoidance and increase daily functioning.
Finding the right approach is part of therapy. The therapist will work with each client to choose techniques that fit their goals and preferences. That means trying strategies, checking how they feel, and adjusting the plan together rather than sticking to one single method.
Session formats are not listed in the biography, so please confirm current options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow for shorter check-ins when needed. They can also let people use quieter surroundings or be off camera when that helps them focus. Grace aims to help clients arrange sessions that integrate with everyday life and supports practical steps between meetings.
