Gail Black, LPC

Gail Black is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Missouri with 12 years of experience supporting people through stress, anxiety, grief, relationship concerns, low self-esteem, and major life transitions. She approaches therapy from a solution-focused perspective, believing that many clients already carry the essential insights needed to move forward and that therapy is an opportunity to uncover and apply those insights. Gail emphasizes honest self-reflection and vulnerability as practical tools for growth, guiding clients to explore their experiences, name distinct aspects of their challenges, and identify concrete steps toward change.

In sessions Gail creates space for clients to talk and reflect, helping them analyze problems, sort different elements, and brainstorm workable strategies. Her practice draws on a range of therapeutic approaches tailored to each person, and she helps clients translate new awareness into real-world problem solving. Gail’s style balances active collaboration with compassionate listening, supporting clients as they reclaim agency and work through complex emotions and relationship dynamics.
