LPC, 10 years of experience
Frequently rebooked
Hi! I am a Licensed Professional Counselor practicing in both West Virginia and Virginia. I graduated Liberty University in beautiful Lynchburg, Virginia and am happy to include or NOT include a faith based approach to your treatment. I specialize in working with adults and couples with a wide range of concerns ranging from healing from trauma, anxiety, depression, to individuals experiencing life transitions, parenting or those navigating co-parenting relationships and martial concerns. My goal is to assist you in reducing symptoms and improving your overall level of functioning and life satisfaction. It is important for you to know that I work on multiple telehealth platforms. To avoid getting double booked I only allow morning time slots for self booking/intake appointments. However, I have afternoon and evening appointments available for follow up appointments. These appointments I will book for you for the agreed upon day and time. If you are needing an afternoon or evening appointment for your intake, please message me before booking so that I can let you know what I have available.
In our first session we will do introductions and I will collect some important information from you regarding present concerns as well as some background information. I'll need this information to form a treatment plan specific to you and your needs. Honestly, this session will not be a good representation of what follow up session will flow and feel like do to me needing to collect information. Follow up sessions feel more organic and person focused as we get to know each other better.
I really enjoy helping people. I feel honored to be a small part of your healing journey. I love working together with clients to find the root cause of their challenges and creating a tailored plan that leads to measurable progress and improved functioning and life satisfaction. I take a very collaborative approach to therapy. I also believe my life experiences give me an edge to not only be able to approach clients clinically, but through my experiences of being a mother of 5, a wife, and a complex trauma survivor. I've been in the trenches of life and can relate to how important and powerful the healing journey is. This is not just my career, this is my passion.
I love working with adults in all areas of their lifespan from the college or young adult years to the later stages of life. Most individuals I work with have experienced traumatic experiences, many have experienced relationships with personality disordered parents and/or partners. I assist individuals in identifying cycles of abuse, feelings of shame, negative self talk and setting boundaries. It is not uncommon for me to have a client that comes for help with anxiety and depression and we discover life experiences that have lead to depressive and/or anxious thoughts and behaviors. I seek to assist clients in finding the root cause of these behaviors and then learn to manage and reduce them.

Mindy and I connected when my husband and I needed pre-marital counseling. Mindy is very thoughtful, insightful, and encouraging. I can discuss all the things, even the shameful things. I appreciate Mindy's counseling approach and how I walk away challenged and seen.

Mindy is the most amazing counselor I have ever had. She is kind and encouraging. She has so much knowledge and wisdom in trauma and narcissistic relationships and she empowers me as I grow and heal. I am so thankful for her.
I am a level 2 Certified Complex Trauma Provider. Therefore, I offer a trauma informed approach to therapy.
I believe Acceptance and Commitment approach to therapy can be very useful in assisting clients with radical acceptance and learning what is and is not in their control.
I assist couples in dealing with communication issues, parenting problems, and working through addiction issues, infidelity, pornography, and other martial concerns.
While not all of my clients are Christians, I am trained as a Christian counselor and am happy to incorporate a biblical worldview in your treatment.
Using techniques such as mindfulness and grounding can increase a clients window of tolerance and assist them in managing anxiety and trauma related symptoms.
