expressive techniques for children, adolescents, teens, and young adults
Hi, I'm Crystal and I am Licensed Professional Counselor. I received my M.Ed in Counselor Education from Virginia Commonwealth University. I have been working as an elementary school counselor for the past twelve years until deciding to pursue further certification as a LPC so that I could practice outside of the school setting. I enjoy working with children, adolescents, teens, and young adults. I use many different approaches and techniques and try to personalize my therapy to what works best for the client. I believe the most effective way to reach children is through play and expressive techniques. My hope when working with people of all ages is that with support and empowerment, I can help them move outside of their existing comfort zone and enrich their lives.

I’m Monica Dabney, a Licensed Professional Counselor with over 15 years counseling experience with children, adolescents, adults, and families in several settings to include group home, long term care, residential, intensive in-home, private, and outpatient.

My areas of focus include trauma, emotional and behavioral stressors, relationships, life changes, and transitions. The first step to seeking change is you. Making yourself mentally fit is an uncomfortable process, but with time, you will begin to understand yourself differently, building a new path and developing new worldviews. Being brave is listening to your knowing, doing what is beautiful, and finding direction on your path for healing. My goal is to create a safe space that encourages exploration of challenges to ultimately foster growth and healing.
