Getting to know Mark Gruber
Hi there, I'm Mark!
I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor, Certified Addiction Professional, and Qualified Supervisor with over 20 years of counseling experience working with diverse populations, including at-risk youth and juvenile delinquents. Recently, I have focused primarily on adult substance abuse treatment. I also specialize in working with LGBT persons. I am skilled at treating anxiety, depression, family of origin issues, career, and relationship challenges.
I earned my PsyD in Clinical Psychology from George Mason University, which has deepened my understanding and skills in providing effective therapy.
My approach
I employ an empathic and motivational approach to working with clients. I utilize personal knowledge from being in recovery to connect with clients. I develop understanding and connection with what each client is struggling with as they progress in therapy. I am well versed in cognitive behavioral therapy and motivational enhancement and use various other interventions to keep clients engaged and active in their therapy process.
My focus
My strengths lie in using a warm, empathic, and personal approach, sometimes applying humor when helpful, and helping clients understand and articulate what is truly troubling them. My niche is working with substance abuse, LGBT persons, depression, and anxiety. I understand these issues in ways many other therapists do not.
My communication style
Warm, conversational, trusting, empathic, and candid.
My journey to therapy
I became a therapist due to being raised with the notion of "make the world a better place in whatever way you can." My personal struggles and triumphs have fueled my desire to share tips, insights, and coping skills with others.
My goals for you
I set client-centered but achievable goals. I help clients break down larger goals into smaller, manageable steps and help them recognize their progress when they might not see it or give themselves credit.
