Richelle Smallwood, LCSW

Richelle Smallwood, LCSW

Psychotherapist
VA
"Hello, I'm Richelle! I am a dedicated and compassionate Licensed Clinical Social Worker with a solid foundation in social work, complemented by over 11 years of professional experience. In 2009, I earned my bachelor's degree in social work from Elizabeth City State University, and in 2011, I furthered my commitment to the field by obtaining a master's degree in social work from East Carolina University. My professional journey has been marked by a steadfast dedication to improving the mental well-being of individuals across diverse age groups. Throughout my career, I have honed my skills as a trauma-informed therapist, demonstrating a deep understanding of the complex effects of trauma on individuals' lives. My therapeutic approach is grounded in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), a proven method that empowers individuals to identify and modify negative thought patterns, fostering positive behavioral change. Specializing in anxiety, depression, family relationships, life transitions, PTSD, stress, trauma, bipolar disorder, borderline personality disorder, children's mental/behavioral health, adolescent & teen mental/behavioral health, grief/bereavement, military/veteran support, multicultural/diversity issues, and phobias, I bring a wealth of experience in working with both children and adults. I am committed to creating a safe and supportive environment where clients can explore their core beliefs and develop a deeper understanding of themselves. My goal is to empower individuals to navigate life's challenges, build resilience, and foster a sense of self-worth. With a client-centered approach, I prioritize collaboration and open communication, tailoring therapeutic interventions to meet the unique needs of each individual. My comprehensive skill set, coupled with a genuine passion for helping others, underscores my commitment to making a positive impact on the lives of those I serve.
