Hello. I am Russell Williams, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in Virginia. I have worked in various positions in mental health services for more that two decades, including providing therapy and counseling services for the past eight years. My experience has been with individuals of all ages experiencing any number of mental health issues. I have a great deal of experience in helping individuals suffering from depression, anxiety, grief, and trauma, along with significant experience in the treatment of many other mental and behavioral health concerns. I believe that we are each experts on ourselves, knowing more about self than anyone else, however often needing someone to provide alternative perspectives to help us keep moving forward. To this purpose, I seek partnership and understanding in order to develop a therapeutic relationship built on trust. I truly believe that we are all capable of growth and change. My clinical approach is eclectic with a purpose, heavily influenced by trauma-focused, client-centered, cognitive-behavioral, psychodynamic, and solution-focused views. Taking the initial step to seek the assistance of a licensed provider is very brave. I applaud you for your bravery. It would be my honor and privilege to utilize my knowledge and experience to assist you in your journey through the therapeutic process.

I enjoy seeing people do well. Life can be challenging and navigating turbulent times, daunting. It seems like our world is in a state of unrest-are you questioning who you are, and where you belong. Coping with it all is no easy task. Whatever the source of your unrest, be it emotional distress, anxiety, employment/relationship issues, and trauma/tragedy, I can help. I approach counseling from a Christian perspective. I believe the word of God has many remedies for improved quality of life. Let's collaborate creative strategies to turn your life experiences into purpose. You are where you are, and I am glad that you have chosen to seek support. Your well-being and growth will be my top priority; thus, I will challenge faulty beliefs, and give honest compassionate feedback to empower you into positive behavioral changes.

Hello! Welcome to healing:) I am happy that you have even taken the time to look at my profile and see if I might be able to help guide you on whatever journey you are seeking help with. I have a more alternative approach to therapy...at least that is what I am told. My goal is to help you find solutions that will work for your life, and if you don't leave every session feeling some kind of relief, then I feel that I have failed you, as a client. I try to get whatever struggle you are having under your control, as quickly as possible, so you can experience other types of therapy in daily activities and life. ...I also have over 10 years of experience and am an LCSW in Virginia as well as Florida. I am certified in Deaf studies and ASL. I am currently working on improving my ASL and SE skills as they are rusty to take the certification to join the RID. I love to work with the Deaf community, however, I am rusty in my skills, so just letting you know. Proud graduate of Florida Gulf Coast University. BSW- 2014. MSW-2015.

I am licensed in District of Columbia and Virginia. I hold a Bachelor of Social Work from the University of the District of Columbia and a Master of Social Work from the University of Pittsburgh. I have experience in helping clients with stress, anxiety, depression, coping with addictions, LGBTQ+ related issues, trauma, & abuse. As a therapist specializing in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), I used evidence-based approaches, to guide my clients in understanding how their thoughts, feelings, and behaviors are interconnected, empowering them to break free from negative patterns and develop healthier coping strategies. My communication style is a blend of compassion and directness. I deeply care about my clients and aim to create a supportive, empathetic environment where they feel heard and understood. At the same time, I believe in being honest and clear, especially when it comes to helping clients face difficult truths or take actionable steps toward their goals. My approach is collaborative—I’m here to guide you, but I’ll also challenge you when needed to help you grow. In our sessions, you can expect a warm and non-judgmental space where we can explore your concerns together. However, I also believe in getting to the heart of issues and offering practical, real-world strategies to move forward. It can feel both validating and motivating to work with me—there will be moments of deep reflection and moments of tough love, but always with the intention of helping you achieve meaningful change.
