About Gilbert
Gilbert Clark is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) and Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor (LPCC) practicing in Michigan with 12 years of experience. He works with people facing addiction, relationship strain, trauma and abuse, anxiety, depression, and issues around self-esteem and grief. Sessions are offered in English and he accepts international clients.
Gilbert uses practical, straightforward methods drawn from cognitive and acceptance-based approaches. He keeps conversations focused on what is happening now, and on skills people can try between sessions. He also integrates attachment-informed thinking to look at how past relationships shape current patterns.
His background includes work across a range of treatment settings and populations. That exposure contributes to a flexible way of working rather than a single fixed method. He describes his practice as person-centered and grounded in experience clients bring to sessions.
People often come for help with substance use and recovery, and he supports them through initial assessment and the various phases of recovery and maintenance. He also works with those who are coping with life changes, caregiver stress, chronic health challenges, and intimacy-related concerns.
Gilbert brings creative work into his practice, including original music, when clients are open to experiential methods. He emphasizes clear steps - like practicing a new coping skill or trying a small boundary - so progress is visible and practical.
How sessions work
How his approaches translate to online work
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and choose actions that matter to them. It is useful for anxiety, depression, and making changes consistent with personal values. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationship patterns affect current behavior and helps people build different ways of relating. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on the person’s experience in the room and supports self-directed change through attentive listening and reflection.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Gilbert will talk with each person about problems and goals, and together they will try methods that fit the person’s needs and preferences. That collaborative process can involve testing one approach, then adjusting as progress and feedback suggest.
Confirm the specific session formats before booking because they are not listed in the biography. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into busy days, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and let people choose sessions that match their energy level - for example less screen time or a focused skills practice. Many people find online sessions help keep momentum between appointments and make it simpler to coordinate care alongside work, caregiving, or recovery commitments.
