Welcome, I am Chevonne Toney and I am a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor (LCPC) in practice for over 24 years. I have worked in a variety of different settings and helped a lot of people with their emotional health, mental illness and addressing their trauma. My approach to therapy is very client centered and I am trained in a variety of different approaches. I have a vast history of working with clients with ADHD, Bipolar Disorder, Depression, Anxiety and Trauma in their backgrounds. I provide therapeutic services as well as education to assist clients with better understanding themselves, their condition and in some cases provided life coaching. My goal for my clients is to assist in healing from their symptoms/trauma and move forward to build a better life for themselves.

Get to know me

In our first session together, here's what you can expect

Because clients are provided intake forms to complete prior to the initial session, I have some information about what brings them to therapy. I like to review their scores on the GAD-7 and PHQ-9 so they are aware of what the scores mean. I then ask general questions to get to know who they are as a person and to allow them to get to know me so they are comfortable with the process and then we proceed from there.

The biggest strengths that I bring into our sessions

My biggest strength is my ability to make clients feel comfortable talking about uncomfortable situations. When people come to me, sometimes they are skeptical about therapy and what to expect or have been with other therapists and didn't see the benefit. I have been told that I make people feel comfortable with the process, validated in their feelings and optimistic about future. My greatest joy is when a client says, "Ms Chevonne I feel so much better about myself, I am ready to....." often the sentence is finished with go back to school, find employment, forgive myself, forgive those who have hurt me in the past ect.

The clients I'm best positioned to serve

I work best with clients with a history of Depression, Anxiety, Bipolar, ADHD and Trauma. I prefer to work with ages 16 and above. I am open to working with clients with other mental health diagnosis as well.
