INDIVIDUAL & GROUP THERAPIST
GRACE LYNCH
LMSW
Grace Lynch believes you arrive as the expert on your own life, and her job is to help you explore it more fully. A designer before she was a therapist and a restaurant veteran of more than a decade, she brings creativity and lived experience to work with you on body image, sexuality, identity, and personal growth.
ABOUT GRACE
Grace is dedicated to creating a space where you can more fully explore what it means to be you, whether that means having a soft place to land, pushing your personal growth, or examining parts of yourself you have not yet questioned. She is genuinely invested in the lives of the people she works with and trusts that every client arrives as the expert on their own life.
Grace joined Champion Counseling after interning with our partner organization, I’ll Have What She’s Having, and became a full-time member of the team in May 2025 after earning her Master’s Degree in Social Work from the University of Houston. With a Bachelor’s Degree in Industrial Design, she brings a distinctive blend of creativity and clinical insight to her work, drawing from a range of theoretical approaches to co-create a therapy process tailored to your needs and goals.
Her background includes more than a decade in the restaurant industry, which fuels her ongoing commitment to food and beverage workers. Grace continues to collaborate with I’ll Have What She’s Having, a Houston-based organization providing counseling services for this community.
