About Lichele

Lichele White is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) and a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor (LCMHC) practicing in Virginia with six years of experience. She works with adults on stress, anxiety, addictions, grief, self-esteem, depression, relationship and family concerns, parenting challenges, bipolar disorder, ADHD, and related issues. Sessions focus on practical steps and clear conversation rather than long technical explanations.

She uses a mix of approaches to help people address day-to-day problems. Lichele draws on Client-Centered Therapy to listen carefully and center the client's own goals. She applies Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify unhelpful thoughts and test simpler ways of thinking and acting. Mindfulness techniques are used to build present-moment awareness and reduce overwhelm.

Motivational Interviewing helps when someone feels stuck and wants to find inner reasons to change. Solution-Focused Therapy is used to identify small, achievable steps that lead toward better routines and relationships. These approaches are practical and action-oriented, aimed at coping with things like caregiver stress, communication problems, or substance use concerns.

Lichele has supported people facing grief, first responder stress, end-of-life issues, divorce and separation, and fatherhood concerns. She also works with young adult issues, seasonal affective disorder, and people who are visually impaired. Her clinical work tends to emphasize clear collaboration and measurable progress.

To begin, she asks people to describe what matters most and what they want to change. From there she and the client agree on straightforward goals and small, repeatable steps to practice between sessions.

How sessions work

Therapeutic approaches and working online

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and following the client's priorities. The therapist helps the person set the agenda and supports decisions that come from the client's own values. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and actions and teaches practical skills to test and change unhelpful patterns.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, try approaches, and adjust methods based on what helps most. This is a collaborative process where the client and therapist check progress and choose what to keep or change.

Session formats were not specified in the biography, so confirm available options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, allow shorter check-ins when time is limited, and avoid travel time. Therapists who offer remote work often find it helps people keep appointments during work breaks or care responsibilities. If you need clarification about which formats Lichele offers, please confirm the current session options before scheduling.
