I'm Valerie! As your therapist, it is my goal to see you become a better version of yourself. It is my belief that life's experiences teach things about the world that may no longer be the most helpful or true today; even if they were true at the time in our past. When we don't adapt and remain flexible, we find ourselves in a web of mistaken beliefs, thinking errors and unresolved life problems. As a result, it becomes too hard to find our way and manage life's challenges in the here-and-now. I love to be present when my clients find a new way and authentically experience change. I've worked with clients from many walks of life and with varied needs. My areas of expertise are in Post Patrum, Fertility, Depression, Anxiety, Trauma, PTSD, Relationship Challenges, Solution Focused Brief Therapy as well as Substance Abuse. I use a Person Centered and Humanistic approach to help my clients bring out the best in themselves. I like to use humor, challenging questions, and a direct approach because I think in counseling we should get to the point, and we should have fun doing it. My favorite activities when I'm not at work is spending time with my 4 amazing kiddos! I love to read; I'm a Netflix junkie and I love to cook! I graduated from Ohio University in Athens, Ohio with a major in Health and Human Services focus on Family Studies. I then went on to complete my master's degree at the University of Dayton where I graduated Magnum Cum Laude. Selecting a therapist on a platform like BetterHelp can be difficult because it's not easy to know exactly what you are getting into. "Will this chick really know what she's talking about? Is she a total Quack? Will she actually be able to help me?" These questions are the norm for clients and uncertainty comes with the territory of what you are searching for. It's my hope that we will make a great team and you will become that better version of yourself you're searching for.
