Getting to know Barbara Southard

My name is Barbara Southard, and I am a licensed mental health counselor/professional counselor with eight years of counseling experience. I have worked with clients across the lifespan, including children as young as six and adults in their 60s and 70s. I hold a master's degree in counseling psychology. I use a variety of therapeutic techniques and treatment approaches to meet each client‚ has unique needs and help them find what works best in counseling. I work collaboratively with clients to identify meaningful goals and desired outcomes for therapy. In our sessions, clients can expect practical, achievable takeaways, which may include journaling, recommended reading, and guided discussions based on their counseling goals. I strive to create a supportive and accessible therapeutic process that helps clients build insight and make steady progress.
