Dr. Valerie Maxwell, PHD

Dr. Maxwell is one of the most amazing and thoughtful psychologist I have ever worked with. She really cares about her patients and is very patient for them and their needs. I HIGHLY recommend you to go see her for any of the services she offers.

Dr. Maxwell has been the one constant who has been with me through challenging times. I worked with her in my 30's and am much older now; however, in times of crises I have reached out to her and she has always been there for me offering a compassionate, listening ear and wise counsel. Through my work with her, she has provided me with different perspectives, tools and action steps which I still employ to this day. Dr. Maxwell has helped me deal with and move through some pretty intense challenges in my life. For this this she has my eternal gratitude and whole-hearted respect.

Dr. Maxwell has been working with our 12 year old son for 2 months. From the moment we met her, she has been a huge support, a great listener and overall an amazing human being. She always responds to our whereabouts and is willing to help our son in that very instant. Our family and son have benefited from weekly therapy /counseling sessions. Our son has learned self-regulation strategies, his self-esteem has improved and he is becoming more independent. If you are in need of a psychologist that truly cares, Dr. Maxwell is the one.

I met Dr. Maxwell for my ADD and learning disability issues with which I struggled all my life, but over the years that I’ve seen her, she helped me so much more than just that. I suffered low self-esteem due to my conditions and always doubted myself, but she helped me see my true essence and cope with life’s challenges in my work as a public school teacher with confidence and grace. One of my favorite parts of the therapy is that she sits me down and does guided meditation for me when I am flustered with stress and anxiety. This practice taught me to deal with challenges of life on a daily basis. She was so effective in helping me and now, I see her on a need basis. She is the most compassionate, kind, and professional but personable therapist you will ever find. I highly recommend her.

As a therapist, I have never had someone who really walked with me through some trauma and told me when to stop and let myself feel the things I pushed away, the hurt that I couldn’t deal with then and never stayed with to heal. She listens carefully and knows when to step in and enlighten you with things you’re not seeing. Reminding me in key moments that feelings are not always the reality, the truth. We paint our lives and memories with the colors we are given. I didn’t know or I couldn’t even see all of the beautiful colors she has already given me. If you’re ready to be happy and do the work, and it can be hard work, I urge you to push through whatever is holding you back and see Dr. Valerie Maxwell. Being vulnerable and emotional is hard but I’m so much closer to being happier than I ever have been because of a doctor who really cares.

I cannot express what an preeminent experience it was to have Dr. Maxwell in my life. She made me feel so comfortable and helped me find happiness through a very dark time in my life. I wish there were words or some way to compensate her for what she did for me.

Dr. Maxwell gave us a DETAILED assessment of our son and some of the things she said left me wondering if she had EVEN met our son. Later after we were hurried out of the office, Dr. Maxwell confirmed she had NOT ever met our son! How unethical!

She is kind and amazing. Dr Maxwell is experience and helps you for real. It was a blessing to find her.

Thank you Doctor Valerie Maxwell for your expertise and love. You have been a bless to me and teach me how to confront my difficulties.
