“Valery was very easy to talk to. There was no judgement at all, and her terrific sense of humor helped to make me feel at ease. She went through a battery of 50 questions with me, then explained what my answers indicated regarding my greatest needs. She said we'll explore my greatest needs and what might be lacking in our next session. This was just my first session with Valery, but I believe she is going to be a huge help to me in getting past some issues with which I've been dealing. ”

Getting to know Valery Dickinson
Hi there, I'm Valery!
Valery Dickinson, LPC011695. I use an eclectic approach. My sessions are strictly tailored to the client’s personality, treatment needs, and goals. My focus is to restructure unproductive cognitions that create roadblocks to success and cause my clients to suffer.
My approach
My extensive training, including a Master’s in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Walden University, allows me to use a variety of tools and methods mostly directed at promoting a healthy self-image and a positive mindset. My work with clients is focused on moving them from the life they tolerate to the life they want.
My focus
Individual Therapy, Marriage/Relationship Therapy; Conditions: Depression, Anxiety, Relationship discord, Life transition, Adoption, Stress, Life satisfaction, Grief/loss.
My communication style
Informal. I’m funny. I smile and laugh. Many of my clients have commented that I’m easy to talk to and that they feel accepted and understood.
My journey to therapy
Well, it was pretty easy for me. When I was 15 years old, I noticed I would gravitate toward reading psychology and psychiatry books that my parents had in their library. One day, as I remember clearly, I stared at one page of a book I held in my hands and made a decision to become a counselor! I completed my professional training in Europe and in the USA.
My goals for you
Goals usually involve getting clear within 2 or 3 sessions, when a proper evaluation of the issue is complete and the client becomes aware of their wants and needs.
My first session with you
In the first session, we get to know each other! I pay full attention to listening and observing. I will ask intake questions and gather some information while we discuss the issue the client is dealing with.

I highly recommend booking a session with Val. Thanks to her, I feel like a whole new person. Val has an amazing ability to guide you through personal challenges with empathy and insight. After working with her, I feel more confident, self-aware, and better equipped to face life's hurdles. If you're looking for transformative therapy, don't hesitate to reach out to Val.
