Getting to know Valine Ripes

As a Licensed Professional Counselor, I work with individuals navigating major life transitions, as well as those struggling with anxiety, depression, and disordered eating. If you're feeling overwhelmed, disconnected, or stuck, therapy can be a space to slow down, gain clarity, and reconnect with yourself.

What should a new client know about working with you?

My approach is warm, collaborative, and insight-oriented. I will tailor therapy to your needs, combining evidence-based techniques with exploration of deeper patterns and experiences. I am supportive but not afraid to challenge you. I believe that meaningful growth often comes from gently pushing beyond what feels comfortable.

What is your typical process for working with clients?

In our first session together, I will strive to create a space where you feel safe, understood, and supported. Moving forward, we'll work together at a pace that feels right to you.
