Meet Gwen

GWENSHAUNJALA (GWEN) DOBEY, LCMHC
Psychotherapist
Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor

Do you find yourself asking questions like, “Why me?”, “How did this happen?”, or “How did I get here?” Many of us have asked these same questions and have no clue how to find the answer. Maybe, the challenges of life have you feeling broken or misunderstood. Or maybe you’ve been feeling overwhelmed lately, or confused. I get it.

I would love to help! I’ve had similar experiences and found answers through therapy.  My therapy journey taught me how to heal, how to love myself and placed me on a path to become the person I am today.

Working with me connects you with someone who will listen and show you how to heal.  My clients learn how to build themselves up again, how to embrace their past hurt and have an appreciation for the future that lies ahead.  I help women understand their worth, I teach families how to communicate, and I show teenagers how to believe in themselves and understand the importance of morals and values. I am LGBTQ affirmative, and am passionate about offering a space that supports you in being your authentic self.

Professional Background

My journey as a therapist began 8 years ago. I received my Master’s Degree from Liberty University and I am a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor.  I have had the pleasure of working with men, women, teenagers and adolescents, who have been impacted by depression, anxiety, ADHD, substance abuse, family concerns and many more areas.

Personally

I am the mother of two exceptional boys.  In my spare time, I enjoy going to the gym, reading and having quality time with my family and friends.  Life for me hasn’t been a crystal stair, but God has truly allowed me to see that life has always been worth it.  I am grateful for the path that God has placed me on and I am truly humbled to assist others on their journey.
