Hi there, I'm Will!

Will Barnes, LCSW. My approach to therapy is primarily cognitive/behavioral inclusive of being supportive and solution-oriented. My focus areas of practice are with adults who are experiencing unhealthy relationships with family and friends and who need to make choices to find self-fulfillment and happiness.

My approach

My most common theoretical approaches are cognitive/behavioral, supportive, and solution-oriented.

My focus

The type of clients I typically work with are adults, both single and married, who are experiencing mild to moderate anxiety and depression.

My communication style

I create an environment in which clients feel comfortable and at ease in expressing their urgent concerns and the type of help and goals they are seeking to realize.

My journey to therapy

I became a therapist to help adults through unhealthy relationships with friends and family members and to choose the right path to self-fulfillment and happiness.

My goals for you

I support clients in openly discussing goal setting, setting them, and reviewing their progress as therapy continues.

My first session with you

My first session with clients offers me an opportunity to get to know them, to understand their most urgent concerns and goals, and to cooperatively develop a treatment plan to realize their goals.
