Clinical Social Work/Therapist, LCSW
Gretchen Watts, a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) and seasoned psychotherapist, invites individuals of all ages—including children, teens, and adults—to embark on a journey of healing and self-discovery. With over 20 years of experience employing Jungian psychology, she skillfully addresses a wide range of challenges, including depression, anxiety, trauma, and relationship issues.

Through a collaborative approach, she builds a bridge to her clients' inner worlds, promoting wholeness and balance. Sandplay therapy is utilized alongside traditional talk therapy, allowing clients to engage their hands in shaping the dynamics of their unconscious. By creatively expressing themselves with sand, water, and small objects, clients uncover deeper layers of their psyche in a safe, nurturing environment. Klare Zukunfte aims to harmonize the ego's strength with the integration of the shadow side, ultimately connecting clients to their greater self. For those seeking to navigate feelings of suffering or emptiness in their lives, or for parents whose children are in pain, Gretchen offers a supportive path forward.
