About me

Therapy should be interactive and dynamic and this is generated from focusing on a Cognitive Behavioral Therapy approach with a strong grounding in Strengths Perspective. A variety of issues to include Depression and Anxiety, trauma, relationship issues, men's issues, and personality disorders are areas in which I have particular experience in treating. The relationship between therapist and client should be one of trust and competence and it should promote open communication and honesty for change to occur.
My clinical experiences began in acute psychiatric treatment facilities and have taken me through a variety of environments and populations to include adolescents as well as adults. I feel the therapeutic relationship can produce change through hard work and guidance as well as creativity and persistence. The therapeutic relationship is one of the most important foundations for change.

Jeffrey Williams (LCSW) has gone above-and-beyond in our sessions!

Written on Jun 29, 2024 after therapy with Jeffrey for 3 weeks on issues concerning depression, stress, anxiety, addictions, relationship issues, family conflicts, trauma and abuse, grief, intimacy-related issues, sleeping disorders, parenting issues, self esteem, anger management, career difficulties, bipolar disorder, coping with life

Having the multiple avenues of communication has really helped with sticking to going to therapy, and Jeffery takes the time to fully listen to/understand what you're going through, and works with you on finding the best solution(s) to what you need.

Jeffrey is very easy to talk to, about anything at all. I have definitely benefited from his counselling, and will request him to be my therapist as needed in the future.
