Greetings, I am Dr. Valerie E. Dixon, a Licensed Mental Health Counselor and a Qualified Supervisor in the State of Florida, and Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor (LCPC) in the state of Illinois. I am also a National Certified Counselor and a Certified Rehabilitation Counselor. I have over 20 years of experience working in the counseling field in several capacities with clients from diverse socio-economic strata and a variety of presenting concerns. I earned my graduate degree in mental health and rehabilitation counseling from University of South Florida. I subsequently earned an Educational Specialist (Ed.

I have developed and facilitated county-wide training for healthcare professionals, statewide and region-wide staff development/training initiatives for counselors. I have extensive experience working with underrepresented populations and advanced training in CBT, Trauma-Focused Resolution, Solution-Focused and Existential modalities.
My life passion is helping others reach desired goals by providing them the proper tools to unlock their fullest potential. Are you ready to put in the work?
