My name is Desiree Lipscomb, and I am a Licensed Professional Counselor. I have been providing therapy for nearly 20yrs. If you are having a tough time with grief and loss, stress management, anxiety, or depression I would love to work with you. I utilize a person-centered approach, meeting clients where they are, and allow them to play an active role in goal-setting, establishing a partnership to achieve their desired treatment outcomes. I use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Solution Focused, Grief therapy, Boundary work, supportive counseling, and psychoeducation to address symptoms.
