Getting to know Vester Bradshaw

Hi there, I'm Vester! Hello, my name is Vester Bradshaw Jr, Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist. I earned my Master’s in Counseling from National University. As a therapist, I operate under the promise that I am not an expert in anyone’s life, which allows me to walk alongside clients to assist them with making changes and achieving goals. My treatment philosophies are “Hope empowers individuals to make effective and needed changes in their lives” and “We are not defined by our past, but how we invest in today lays the foundation for our future.” My approach I am trained in treatment modalities such as Progressive Counting (Trauma Focus), Brief Solution Focused, DBT, CBT, and Grief Counseling. My focus I work with both individuals and couples within my practice. I typically see people who are experiencing depressive and anxious symptoms, social conflicts, behavioral problems, and struggles with grief. My communication style My role is to create a safe, relaxed, and non-judgmental environment where people feel free to express themselves openly. My journey to mental healthcare I believe my life experiences of being a troubled youth and other struggles have provided me with the ability to be relatable as I help people reach their goals. My goals for you I believe it is imperative to create realistic goals that reflect the person’s life experience. My first session with you The first session consists of reviewing consent for treatment, completing the initial intake, and discussing the expectations of treatment.
