Grachelle Sherburne
Hi! I'm a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) based in Georgia. I received my Masters from the Western Michigan University and have been practicing for 16 years. Life is full of changes and ups & downs. Sometimes you may need help dealing with all these changes. I am so glad you realize you don't have to manage all these change on your own. I have worked with various populations and have a diverse background including people with trauma, crisis, depression, anxiety, and relationship issues.

First session
I will meet you where you are emotionally in a non-judgmental manner. I provide tailored services to couples, individuals, families, and corporations. My goal is for you to be comfortable and get your needs met so you can start thriving and have the life you deserve.
Strengths
I have over 18 years of experience and use evidence based methods to assist my clients to meet their needs. I like to build rapport with my clients to help them feel comfortable to open up and share their feelings. We then work together to create goals and a plan to help them have success in regulating their emotions, have skills to cope, have health relationships and fulfilling lives.
Ideal clients
My ideal client is someone who may appear strong and capable on the outside but feels overwhelmed, emotionally exhausted, stuck, or disconnected on the inside. They may be navigating stress, anxiety, relationship challenges, past trauma, major life transitions, family responsibilities, or the pressure of constantly being the person everyone else depends on. They are ready to better understand themselves, break unhealthy patterns, strengthen their relationships, and develop healthier ways of managing life's challenges. I especially enjoy working with clients who are open to self-reflection and want therapy to be both supportive and practical. Together, we work toward greater emotional wellness, healthier boundaries, stronger relationships, increased confidence, and a life that feels more peaceful, purposeful, and intentional.
Treatment methods
Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)
I use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help clients understand the connection between their thoughts, emotions, and behaviors and how these patterns may be affecting their daily lives, relationships, and overall well-being. Together, we identify unhelpful or limiting thought patterns, explore where they may come from, and develop healthier, more realistic ways of thinking and responding. I take a collaborative and practical approach, incorporating strategies such as reframing negative thoughts, developing effective coping skills, improving problem-solving, and practicing new behaviors between sessions. My goal is not simply to help clients think differently, but to give them practical tools they can use in real life to manage stress, regulate emotions, build confidence, strengthen relationships, and create meaningful, lasting change.
Strength-Based
I use a strengths-based approach to help clients recognize and build upon the resilience, abilities, values, and resources they already possess. While we make space to explore challenges, past experiences, and areas of concern, I also help clients identify what has helped them overcome difficult situations in the past and how those strengths can support them moving forward. Together, we focus on increasing self-awareness, building confidence, identifying solutions, and developing practical strategies that align with each client’s goals and values. I believe therapy is not only about addressing problems—it is also about helping clients recognize their capacity for growth, reconnect with their sense of purpose, and feel empowered to create meaningful and lasting change in their lives.
Couples Counseling
In couples counseling, I create a supportive and nonjudgmental space where both partners can feel heard, understood, and respected. I help couples identify patterns that may be contributing to conflict, disconnection, communication difficulties, or unmet emotional needs. Together, we work on improving communication, increasing emotional awareness, rebuilding trust, strengthening intimacy, and developing healthier ways to navigate disagreements and life transitions. I focus not only on the problems that bring couples to therapy, but also on the strengths, experiences, and connection that can help them move forward. My goal is to help couples better understand themselves and each other, interrupt unhealthy relationship patterns, and develop practical tools that foster greater connection, partnership, and emotional safety.
Trauma-Focused CBT
I use Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (TF-CBT) to help clients understand how traumatic or distressing experiences can affect their thoughts, emotions, behaviors, relationships, and sense of safety. I provide a supportive and trauma-informed environment where clients can process difficult experiences at a pace that feels manageable while developing practical skills to cope with emotional distress. Depending on the client’s needs, our work may include identifying and reframing trauma-related thoughts, strengthening emotional regulation, developing relaxation and coping strategies, and gradually processing difficult experiences in a safe and structured way. My goal is to help clients reduce the impact of trauma, recognize their resilience, rebuild a sense of safety and control, and move forward with greater confidence and emotional well-being.
