LPC, 7 years of experience
I’m Patrice Jackson, a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Virginia. I serve as a compassionate guide for individuals navigating life’s challenges, offering a supportive, judgment-free space where healing and growth can take root. My mission is to empower you to reconnect with your strengths, uncover your potential, and move forward with confidence and clarity. Let's start the healing journey today.
In our first session together, we'll start with brief introductions, then dive into the specific challenges you're facing. This will help me create a tailored plan for us to work through in follow-up sessions.
I bring a wealth of experience from working with a wide range of individuals, allowing me to quickly identify core challenges and tailor a personalized, actionable plan for each client. I combine deep empathy with a results-focused approach to help you make real, lasting changes.
Pause for a moment—does life feel overwhelming, even a bit unmanageable? Are your emotions spinning, or your thoughts racing? Maybe you're in law enforcement and need someone who truly understands the weight of the job. If you're longing for peace, clarity, fulfillment, and lasting change, you're in the right place. I specialize in working with individuals facing depression, anxiety, trauma, substance use, PTSD, and more. Using a compassionate, person-centered, and strengths-based approach, I integrate techniques like EMDR, CBT, DBT, and motivational interviewing to support your journey toward healing, self-discovery, and resilience. Let’s take this transformative step together.
Eye movement desensitization and reprocessing therapy, commonly known as EMDR, is a mental health therapy method. EMDR treats mental health conditions that occur because of memories from traumatic events in your past. When undergoing EMDR, you access memories of a traumatic event in specific ways. Combined with eye movements and guided instructions, accessing those memories helps you reprocess what you remember from the trauma event.
Strength-based therapy is a type of positive psychotherapy and counseling that focuses on your internal strengths and resourcefulness, rather than on your weaknesses, failures, and shortcomings. The clients will focus on developing a positive mindset that helps build on your best qualities, find your strengths, improve resilience, and change your worldview to one that is more positive.
Solution-Focused Brief Therapy (SFBT) is a short-term goal-focused evidence-based therapeutic approach, which incorporates positive psychology principles and practices, and which helps clients change by constructing solutions rather than focusing on problems. In the basic sense, SFBT is a positive emotion eliciting, future-oriented vehicle for formulating, motivating, achieving, and sustaining desired behavioral change.
