Holistic Jungian therapist specializing in trauma and relationships
Valerie A. Farrell
Clinical Social Work/Therapist, LCSW, CCTPII, CASAC-A, RMT
Life is a chain of events with unexpected turns and directional missteps. Therapy is the beginning of one’s awareness, healing, and redirection. I focus on guiding individuals and families, as they navigate life’s challenges, understanding intergenerational and complex developmental trauma and its impact on one’s lifespan. I weave the therapeutic journey to each person’s unique needs, drawing on somatic, psychodynamic, cognitive behavioral therapy, mindfulness, energy-based, and motivational interviewing techniques. My experience spans over twenty-eight years assisting individuals in setting a course of action and building emotional resilience. My specialized care addresses substance use, anxiety. depression, trauma/post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), death and dying, grief and loss, family/relational discord, chronic health conditions, and spiritual direction. My commitment is to facilitate transformative change, empowerment, and holistic well-being. I will tailor our dialogue and treatment plan to meet your unique and specific needs. Taking the first step to sign up for therapy can take courage and I am honored to be a part of your journey!

Online therapy can be an effective option for many common concerns such as stress, anxiety, depression, relationship issues, or major life transitions. Research and clinical practice indicate that for these types of challenges, remote care often performs comparably to traditional in-person sessions.
One major benefit is flexibility – clients can meet with a therapist in the format that best fits their life, whether that is a video session, a phone call, live chat, or in-app messaging. This variety makes it easier to maintain continuity of care amid busy schedules and changing circumstances.
Therapists offering online services are licensed professionals, and if a particular working relationship does not feel like the right match, clients generally have the option to switch therapists. For many people, remote therapy provides an accessible, practical route to consistent support and progress.
