Walter Barron, LCSW

Walter Barron, LCSW, brings 35 years of experience in the mental health field to his work with individuals, couples, and families. He has extensive experience addressing stress management, PTSD, depression, anxiety, grief, major serious mental illness diagnoses, and marital and family relationship concerns. His clinical background includes roles in both inpatient and outpatient settings, 11 years of military employment, work with Veterans Administration outpatient community services, and practice as a private contractor.

His approach is rooted in client-centered therapy delivered with a warm, non-directive systems perspective that highlights family and individual dynamics. He also integrates cognitive behavioral techniques informed by the models of Dr. Aaron Beck and Dr. Albert Ellis, tailoring interventions only after a comprehensive assessment and a collaborative discussion with each client about the changes they want to make. He does not impose any single treatment model before determining the best fit with the client.

As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, or LCSW, he is credentialed to provide clinical therapy and support. He respects client self-determination and recognizes that beginning therapy is an important step. He aims to make the process rewarding and welcomes the opportunity to work with new clients.
