Biography: My name is Cletus (Clete) Deller and I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (20 years experience) who started out my professional career as a teacher. As far as approach, I use both Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Action and Commitment Therapy, (ACT), along with a focus on Christian Deliverance Ministry. I have two Graduate Degrees (an MS in Psychology and Counseling, and an MBA), Post Graduate Certification in Forensic Psychology, certification as a Sexual Therapist, and in addition, I have ISE and NCAA certification in Deliverance Ministry. I am strongly focused on offering both science-based treatment along with a Christian Deliverance Ministry focus to successfully treat trauma, addiction, and Narcissistic and Borderline personalities. From the science side, I am trained and certified in the only evidenced-based scientific treatments, strongly recommended by the American Psychology Association and I have additional certifications in Anger Management, Anxiety, Complex Trauma, Grief, Narcissistic Abuse, and Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (the only science-based treatment for Borderline personalities) From the Deliverance Ministry side, as mentioned above, I have both ISE and NCAA certification. Deliverance Ministry is currently the only complete treatment available for both Narcissism and Borderline conditions. I am a not a Christian counselor, but I am a Counselor who is a Christian. What that means is that I can use both scientifically validated approaches to solving mental health issues, and Christian counseling techniques, if requested. The goal is always to craft the right plan, for the person that is seeking help. What sets me apart from all other therapists, is a unique approach based on Christian Deliverance Ministry, that I use to help people who suffer from Narcissistic and Borderline lives. Currently there is only one approved treatment for Borderline (DBT which I am also certified in), that takes over a year to be effective, and there is no approved treatment for Narcissism. The treatment I offer for both Borderline and Narcissism, usually takes less than 8 sessions. For my treatment to work however, the individual MUST WANT TO GET BETTER.

Biography: I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor dedicated to empowering individuals to cultivate healthier relationshipswith themselves and with others.

Biography: The selection of a psychotherapist is an intensely personal private intimate decision. Therapy is about one thing: focused communication. With the appropriate modification of language, we can think differently. If we think differently, we can change behaviors. And if we consistently change behaviors, they can become long-term, therapeutic, healthy change. Yes, that journey begins with the first step. My journey began last century with graduate school and licensure. Spent many years working with our incarcerated brothers and sisters. Their needs are real and varied. Being on the "outside" doesn't mean you aren't still incarcerated. Spent over a dozen years working with a Native American community. So many needs and so little time. A very special time in my life working with all ages, all needs, often through the assistance of an interpreter. From that chapter, I moved into substance abuse eventually becoming clinical director at several programs. Sobriety like therapy is a day-to-day process and there is nothing wrong with that. Perfection is not possible but excellence is attainable! Lastly, as a former first responder, spent over a decade assisting that community with critical incident stress. Actually, earned a doctorate with the research we all generated together. Nothing quite prepares you for that profession and the significant costs it exacts but if you would just like the opportunity to be, in a kind of ministry of presence, that is one of the reasons I am here . . . And for all, sometimes absolutely the best therapy comes from being with someone in a special moment without saying a word. So, how bout it? Even if it is not me, will you continue your search and seek? Why? Because there are some people on this Earth who do not need to meet you, be in a relationship with you, who know without a shadow of a doubt you are special! Unique! You are worthy! And although it may not be fashionable, will tell you are loved! Enjoy your journey and take that step and just maybe our paths will cross. Looking forward to it . . .

Biography: I start with the assumption that every human being has a purpose and the ability to be a productive member of society. I believe that we all have an optimal self and that it is helpful to have someone act as a mirror and a support to keep moving toward that optimal self.

My approach often employs the theory and techniques of Person-Centered, Cognitive-Behavioral, Adlerian, and Existential therapies. I believe in a healthy mind, body, and soul, and in that vein, I provide counseling in spiritual matters tailored to each client's personal beliefs. I am proud of my formal education, and I obviously could not do this work without it. However, the key to my ability to help others has always been the education I've garnered through my own life experiences. I draw on both of these influences as appropriate.

Care Philosophy: If there's one crucial message I wish to convey to those hesitant about therapy, it's that regular mental health check-ups are as vital as dental or annual health check-ups.

Therapy offers a space for self-reflection, personal growth, and equips individuals with valuable tools to navigate life's challenges.

Biography: Hello! My name is Renee and I am a licensed professional counselor in the state of Virginia and Florida. I have over 10 years experience working in the mental health field. I have worked in a variety of settings including schools, outpatient, in-home, and crisis stabilization centers. I have had experience working with a broad range and severity of clinical issues. I have the most experience working with anxiety, family/relationship conflicts, and complex trauma. I also have experience working with depression, self-harm, low self-esteem, and cultural issues. I use a person-centered, holistic, multicultural, and integrative approach in treatment. I work to provide you with the type of treatment that best fits your needs. I also start where you are, and focus on your goals for treatment. I primarily use evidence based techniques including cognitive-behavioral therapy, mindfulness, dialectic behavioral therapy, and solution-focused counseling. I would describe my style as supportive and engaging, and I am ready to help you. I like to work as a team and collaborate. As a team, together we can work on establishing concrete goals and steps for you to help overcome your current problems. I believe in taking it one step at a time, so that we can address your problems head on. We will take our time and work on wellness slowly, holistically, and consistently. I look forward to working with you and accomplishing your goals together.
