I'm Percival Fisher, Jr., but you can simply call me "Percy." With 13 years of experience, I've been dedicated to providing both individual and group psychotherapy. My goal is to assist you in achieving your therapy objectives by creating a safe, warm, and interactive space to explore your presenting issues.
I bring expertise in addressing a range of challenges, including depression, anxiety, anger, trauma, "coming out"/LGBTQIA-related issues, and family conflicts. To tailor the therapeutic experience to your unique needs, I employ a diverse set of treatment modalities such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Psychodynamic Psychotherapy, Trauma-Informed Therapy, Harm Reduction, Motivational Interviewing (MI), Crisis Intervention, and Relational Therapeutic techniques.
As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in Pennsylvania, New Jersey, Florida, North Carolina, California, Oregon, Arizona, Washington (LICSW), and West Virginia (LICSW), I am also a Board Certified Diplomate in Clinical Social Work (BCD) by the American Board of Examiners in Clinical Social Work. Additionally, I hold certifications as a Certified Complex Trauma Professional (CCTP-II) from the International Association of Trauma Professionals and a Certified Case Manager (CCM) from the Commission for Case Management Certification.
Beyond psychotherapy, my background spans behavioral health research, HIV/AIDS education and counseling, teaching, medical social work, and leadership.
During my leisure time, I indulge in watching Marvel series on Netflix, psychological thrillers, reading, traveling, engaging in conversations about current events related to mental health, and staying active through workouts.
I eagerly anticipate the opportunity to work with you and support your journey. Take care!

Percy is an incredible counselor and has made a tremendous impact in my life. His non-judgemental attitude and calm demeanor helps to make me feel safe to share anything with him. I feel so lucky to have found him and attribute much of where I am today because of our work together.

Percival is the best therapist I have ever had. Our sessions are dynamic, thought-provoking, and above all, healing. Percival listens, understands, and makes every session meaningful. Not only that, his response time to messages is fast. Could not recommend him enough!

Percy is caring, patient, and oh so wise and our sessions together have been extremely helpful for my personal growth. I opt for phone sessions and it's always nice to hear his gentle voice. Percy also has a wonderful laugh which helps me to remember to laugh too. I am grateful to have met him and for having an option like BetterHelp available to me.

Percy was a great counselor! Responded really fast to all message, asked great thought provoking messages, and helped me through a lot.

Percy does a great job of supporting the people he counsels in a calm, honest, and non-judgmental manner. He makes you feel comfortable and just made a difficult process easier and I appreciate it a great deal.
Written on May 19, 2019 after therapy with Percival for 1 year and 3 months on issues concerning depression, stress, anxiety, and relationship issues
Percy is incredible. From the first message I sent, I could sense that he cared, and his responses were thoughtful and genuine. He has continued to ask me relevant questions, make me think about perspectives I genuinely wouldn't have thought of before, and gently push me to practice more self-care. He has addressed my general anxiety, depression, and phobias, which I had no idea could be addressed all at once, let alone in online therapy. He makes this process less scary than it typically would be, and I cannot thank him enough for that. I would recommend Percy to anyone and everyone!

He's really nice and supportive and good at asking thought provoking questions.
Written on Sep 14, 2018 after therapy with Percival for 1 week on issues concerning depression, stress, anxiety, grief, eating, self esteem, anger, and career
Throughout my life, I have hated therapists. With help from my SO, I decided to give it a chance. I'm so happy I did, and Percy was an amazing help! He talks to me as a human being and made me look at things a different way than has helped me through some really hard times.

Very personable and patient. I also appreciate that there is no pressure here and the online experience is vastly more helpful to me than making in person appointments that would probably be very over priced and not helpful at all with the additional stress of finding the time and funds to continue therapy consistently.
Written on Apr 02, 2018 after therapy with Percival for 3 weeks on issues concerning depression, stress, anxiety, addictions, relationship, family, trauma and abuse, grief, intimacy-related, eating, sleeping, parenting, self esteem, anger, career, and bipolar
Percy is a great balance of challenging and nurturing. He is responsive and creative in his approaches. After having several therapists that I did not find helpful and almost giving up on therapy completely, I am very optimistic about the counseling I am recieving from Percy currently. I would highly recommend him.
Written on Oct 17, 2017 after therapy with Percival for 2 weeks on issues concerning depression, relationship, family, trauma and abuse, and bipolar
Percy has been so helpful and I feel like I've made so much progress since I've started seeing him. He always responds quickly and always offers to make extra sessions if I need them. The handouts and books he's recommended have been super helpful and given me a different perspective on my issues. So glad I started working with him!
Written on Aug 08, 2017 after therapy with Percival for 4 months on issues concerning depression, stress, anxiety, family, trauma and abuse, and self esteem
Percival responded within a couple hours after being paired with me. He always responded
promptly and always read everything that I said whether it was short or long. He had a lot of great handouts that he shared with me to understand depression better.
Written on Jul 03, 2017 after therapy with Percival for 1 month
Percy has helped me get a better sense of direction and overcome some issues regarding depression and social anxiety. His personality made it very easy to talk to him and express my situation. He was also very considerate and practical with his approach. Huge thanks for all his help!
