Hi. I'm Linda. I'm a therapist in Huntington, WV; and I was inspired to become a licensed therapist because people naturally confide in me; friends, family, strangers. They came to me when they were going through hard times. As a therapist, I often work with people who are at a crossroads and struggling with making the right decisions. I work with those who are seeking to get some relief in their battle with anxiety and depression. I help people make progress in their recovery, or to pick up the pieces after a relapse. I work with clients that are seeking to do more than just cope with what life is dishing out.

I am a member of the LGTBQ community. I specialize in treating other members of this community and I also specialize in treating trauma/PTSD with EMDR. Unfortunately, many of us in the LGBTQ community have experienced a good deal of trauma through abuse, rejection, dysphoria, religion, etc. You are safe with me. I am here to help and happy to do so.

Areas of expertise: Positive Parenting, Depression, Anxiety Disorders, Divorce/Blended Families, Life Transitions, LGBTQ+, Adolescent and Young Adult Issues

I'm Alexandria (Ali) Dawson, and I'm a part of Dawson Counseling Services, LLC. I'm a licensed independent clinical social worker, and I specialize in working with young adult/adult women.

I am a WV native and have been working with children/adolescents/adults for over 17 years. Helping others is my passion. I am an advocate for the families receiving my services. I am a graduate of West Virginia State University with a B.A. in Psychology and Liberty University with an M.A. Professional Counseling. I am trained in EMDR therapy, which is a model of therapy used to treat trauma and other disorders. I am currently taking courses in American Sign Language and hope to eventually offer services to the deaf community. If I may leave one thought with you it is that what I do is a PASSION and not a POSITION. Take care

We, as human beings, share common ground in that living is full of both joys and sorrows, challenges and changes. Sometimes things happen in life that you would have preferred not happen. As a result, you may feel scared and confused, either because of the events themselves or perhaps because of how you view these events.

Sometimes life keeps throwing curve balls at us, causing us to wonder how many more we can dodge. Dodging these curve balls can cause us to struggle with anxiety, OCD, depression and trauma. Feelings of guilt, future tripping, or needing things a certain way may become a large part of our world. These thoughts can take up space rent free in our minds making us act or behave a certain way to feel better. Or the tiring upkeep can make it feel like we're dragging through life, losing our motivation, or that we're wearing a mask. In moments like these a helping hand is sometimes all we need to regain control over our lives.
