"Life without change is not living; To be uncomfortable means that change is right around the corner!" I believe these words wholeheartedly as every individual arrives at a crossroads that determine whether they move forward, backward or remain stagnant. I work alongside those who may be within a crossroad in life that has them questioning which direction to choose. In my work as a Therapist, my clinical training and experience encompasses depression, couples enrichment, grief/loss, separation/divorce, relationship issues, and other emotional/interpersonal disturbances. I specialize in trauma such as sexual abuse, domestic violence, and death/illness.
As a Therapist, I subscribe to trauma-informed strength based, Cognitive/Emotive Behavioral and Gestalt models of therapies, believing in the importance and connection of choice, empowerment, thinking and feeling for creating long-lasting change within individuals and their varying "parts of self".
Through exploring your sense of meaning and empowering your "choices", I can help you gain the ability to achieve personal growth, autonomy, improved relationships, regulated emotions, increased self-esteem, clarified self-identity, coping skills, increased communication and problem-solving skills, decreased anxiety and depression, improved lifestyle, and a deeper sense of self-worth.

Lemuel knows what he's talking about! The man is on point when I'm talking to him about something, and has great insights. He even switched up types of therapy for me when one type wasn't working for me with another therapist. He's kind, professional, and really has a great rapport with his clients.

Mr. Williams is highly professional and incredibly down to earth therapist. He challenges you without pushing you, and he celebrates your wins.

It is said that ENFJs are over represented among top clinicians in the mental health field, and my opinion is that Highly Sensitive People deserve particular recognition. Lem Williams is both, and his counsel and empathy have been invaluable for me. I would especially encourage anyone who others recognize as highly sensitive, deep, or thoughtful to try and establish a connection, as I would regard these as his strengths.

Lemuel helped me look at my problems from a different perspective and had me challenge my way of thinking. Lemuel was kind and compassionate whenever we would talk and gave some good advice that I will continue to practice.

Lemuel was exactly what I was after - he understood my priorities and worldview as a Christian, and with a calm and careful manner he helped me to work through some complex issues. I really appreciated his thoughtfulness, and the tasks he recommended have helped me a lot. I felt listened to and understood each time we spoke, and our conversations have helped bring a lot of healing and healthy habits of relationship into my day to day life.
