Getting to know Grace Ardila
I’m Grace Ardila, LCSW, a bilingual (English/Spanish) therapist providing virtual therapy to adults across New Jersey. I specialize in anxiety, depression, trauma, burnout, and the emotional impact of chronic health conditions, including Type 1 Diabetes.
Many of my clients are high-responsibility professionals, caregivers, ministers, and leaders who appear capable and composed outwardly but feel overwhelmed or emotionally depleted internally. I help clients process unresolved trauma, reduce anxiety, strengthen boundaries, and navigate major life transitions such as divorce or separation.
My approach integrates Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), psychodynamic therapy, and attachment-based trauma work. Therapy is structured, collaborative, and paced to feel steady and manageable.
For clients who value their faith, I can thoughtfully incorporate Christian beliefs into the work. I also provide an affirming space for individuals exploring sexuality, identity, or reconciling faith and orientation.
What should a new client know about working with you?
When working with me, you can expect both structure and compassion. I help guide sessions so you don’t feel lost, while making sure you always have choice in what we focus on.
I work especially well with adults who struggle with overthinking, emotional exhaustion, people-pleasing, burnout, or the mental load of chronic illness. Together, we focus on:
• Reducing anxiety and emotional overwhelm
• Building healthy boundaries
• Understanding patterns rooted in trauma or attachment
• Strengthening coping skills that feel sustainable
If you’re used to being the “strong one,” therapy can be a place where you don’t have to carry everything alone.
What is your typical process for working with clients?
In the first session, we clarify what’s bringing you in and identify immediate stressors and longer-term goals. I’ll ask thoughtful questions to understand patterns, relationships, health stressors, and life transitions impacting you. From there, our work typically includes:
1. Building practical coping tools to stabilize anxiety and stress
2. Exploring deeper patterns related to trauma, attachment, or role pressure
3. Strengthening boundaries and decision-making
4. Creating realistic, values-aligned goals for sustainable well-being
My goal is to help you feel more emotionally steady, clearer in your choices, and better equipped to manage life’s demands without constant internal pressure.
