If you are reading this, you may very well be suffering and in need of support to live your life with less dread and more joy, less doubt and greater assurance, less anger and more self-control. If you are seeking services, you are already moving in the right direction by identifying the intent and developing the motivation needed to affect desired changes. A plethora of support services exist, and if you can receive the help you need from less-intensive and/or less-expensive sources, I encourage you to do so. Thankfully there are many self-help groups, such as Alcoholics Anonymous and Gamblers Anonymous, as well as the National Alliance on Mental Illness that can offer great support on the road to recovery. In fact, if you retain my services, I would most likely suggest that you and your family increase and refine your connections to the community, church, and support groups that promote positive growth and well being. Change is not only possible, it is inevitable. Too often we live our lives as though we are permanently enslaved and predestined to be wasted in self-inflicted pain. Most people have moments of clarity in which they understand and appreciate the ability to willfully change the causes and conditions of their lives, but sadly they are caught up in circumstances and surrounded by people who are deeply invested in the familiarity of suffering. As such, opportunities for change are unfulfilled

Deb H. McNeill is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, providing therapy, coaching and counseling for individuals, couples and families dealing with difficult life transitions, relationship struggles, depression, stress and anxiety. Every individual is unique and there is no formula to solve every problem. A therapist can help you identify the problem, set good goals and help you begin the work to make the changes you desire or accept the reality you face. A therapist can sometimes address short-term goals in one or two sessions if that is what you choose. Sometimes it may take multiple sessions to clarify and address your problems and concerns. Some individuals choose to work over a longer period of time taking breaks and starting again as needed.

Current practice includes play therapy with children & families in an outpatient private practice setting. I use a cooperative parenting model with divorcing families. I have previous experience on a crisis team, as well as child/adolescent/family work in agencies in VA & NC. I have facilitated groups in schools. I work from a child developmental perspective, and see children as young as 3 years old. I can easily refer clients to a therapist who may have different skills or a specialty niche (ex: treating autism or couples therapy) because I belong to several therapy networking groups. I participate in the "Give An Hour" program available to military veterans. I rent office space to a small number of therapists, and offer LCSW supervision on an individual basis. Renters and supervisees are responsible for establishing their own caseloads.
