Getting to know Valri Bromfield
I am a Licensed Professional Counselor in the state of Massachusetts and a Licensed Professional Counselor, Mental Health Service Provider in the state of Tennessee.
I began my career working for FEMA in New York City, counseling families, first-responders and survivors of the World Trade Center Tragedy. I learned from that work that trauma can hold you prisoner unless you find a new way to view events of the past, in the work towards growth and recovery.
I then moved on to University settings with students, faculty and staff helping them meet the demands of academia. Things needed to improve immediately, so together we worked with Solution Focused and Problem-solving strategies to energize the improvements people were seeking.
Couples would come to me because they needed to improve their conversational styles, find a way back to the intimacy they once enjoyed, to become a team again.
Neurodiverse students feeling isolated wanted to join the social world in their own way, to learn to adjust without sacrificing original talents.
Anxiety dwells in the competitive halls of learning, so all the Mindfulness training I had pursued suddenly became very useful.
I studied Dialectical Behavioral Therapy with Marsha Linehan and facilitatedDBT groups at both Vanderbilt University and Smith College. All these skills served to resolve Interpersonal issues, build distress tolerance and teach emotion regulation.
I created a curriculum for an improvisational Social Skills Group that was fun and surprising for many of the participants who reported feeling increased self-confidence.
I have learned that everybody possesses innate strengths that they may not have recognized. In the telling of an Individual’s personal narrative, these strengths will surface and soon that curious mind is imagining new ways to get the things they want out of life.

What is your typical process for working with clients?
Going through therapy with a therapist can be a very beneficial experience for individuals who want to work through their mental health challenges and improve their overall well-being. Here are some steps you can take to make the most of your therapy experience:
- Find the right therapist: The first step is to find a therapist who is a good fit
for you. Look for someone who specializes in the type of issues you want
to address and whose style matches your preferences. I hope I can be
that person for you.
- Set clear goals: It's important to have clear goals for therapy so that you
and I are on the same page. In our first session, we will discuss your goals
and work together to create a treatment plan that outlines the steps you
will take to achieve those goals.
- Try to be open and honest with me about your thoughts, feelings, and
behaviors. I am here to help you, and I can only do so if I have a clear
understanding of what's going on.
- Trust the process: Therapy can be a long process, and it's important to
trust that the work you're doing with me will pay off in the end. It's also
important to be patient and not expect instant results.
- Practice self-care: In addition to attending therapy sessions, it's important
to practice self-care on a regular basis. This may include activities such as
exercise, meditation, or spending time with loved ones.
- Keep an open mind: Finally, it's important to keep an open mind and be
willing to try new things. As your therapist, I may suggest different
techniques or approaches that you haven't tried before, and it's important
to be receptive to these suggestions.
Remember, therapy is a collaborative process between you and me, so be sure to communicate your thoughts and concerns along the way. With the right mindset and a willingness to work, therapy can be a transformative experience that helps you achieve your goals and improve your quality of life.
