About me
My name is Olivia Withers and I received my Master’s in Marriage, Couple, and Family Therapy from Messiah College and hold a B.S. in Psychology and Crisis Counseling from Liberty University. As a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in the State of Virginia, I have clinical experience helping adolescents and adults successfully navigate through life’s detours, stressors, and obstacles. My focus areas include helping individuals and families work through concerns surrounding anger, anxiety, crisis/trauma, depression, grief, life transitions, family conflict, and self-esteem. I adhere to principles based on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy that show a close connection between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. I also value person-centered, holistic approaches aimed to assist clients with exploring future possibilities, identify goals, and enhance wellness in a safe and non-judgmental environment.
