Gilbert Clark

I am a MA, LPC, LPCC, CAADC, and a CCS. My diverse training through the Hazelden Betty Ford Graduate School of Addiction Studies, as well as training through the Mayo Clinic has enriched my understanding of holistic wellness. Additionally I have experience in a wide variety of treatment environments with diverse clientele and understand that treatment is most effective when care is tailored with respect for the individual. I have served as a clinical director and supervisor and I have enjoyed mentoring those in the early days of their careers.

To create my therapeutic approach, I use an eclectic process which draws on cognitive, narrative, and solution-focused therapy. I use ACT extensively. I am trained in EMDR. I have extensive experience with addictions and recovery and am able to guide you through the initial assessment, all the phases of recovery, and towards ongoing wellness and maintenance. I have a passion for mental health healing, and am skilled with relationship challenges, familial challenges, families seeking support for their loved ones, self-exploration, and trauma.

I enjoy working with people as a fellow traveler and a guide to improved mental wellness. I will work with you let you determine goals, the areas of focus and the pace of therapy. I enjoy sharing in the outcomes of reduced, anxiety, depression, stress and improvements in behaviors.
