My Background and Approach
Hello, I'm Bobbie. With over 22 years of experience in the mental health field, I am dedicated to providing compassionate and effective therapy to help you navigate life's challenges. My journey began as a social worker and child abuse investigator with the Department of Social Services in Virginia, where I gained invaluable experience working with families in need. During my undergraduate and graduate studies, I provided outpatient counseling to children, adolescents, and their families, which further fueled my passion for mental health. I have also worked in an inpatient psychiatric unit, served as a clinical site director, and conducted scientific research on family caregiver stress and coping styles during my doctoral program, which I later published. My educational background includes an Associate of Arts and Sciences degree, a Bachelor of Science degree in College and Community Counseling, a Master of Science degree in Clinical Psychology, and a Ph.D. in Psychology & Philosophy.
My Personal Beliefs and Interests
My approach to therapy is grounded in compassion, respect, and genuine connection. I believe that healing happens in a safe nonjudgmental space where you feel truly heard and understood; together we will work at your pace exploring your experiences, challenges and strengths without pressure or expectation. I draw from evidence-based techniques, while honoring the uniqueness of your story, helping you build the tools, insight and confidence you need to navigate life’s difficulties. My role is not to fix you, but to walk alongside you.
