Hi, I am Veronica Dillard. As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker serving DC, Maryland, and Virginia, I bring a wealth of experience and passion to helping individuals navigate life's challenges. With a background solely in social work, my focus has always been on empowering and supporting my clients throughout their journey. My clinical practice is centered around youth and young adults, where I aim to provide comprehensive support in managing various stressors. Whether it's peer relationships, family dynamics, academic pressures, life transitions or mental health concerns like depression, anxiety, and anger, I work alongside clients to develop coping strategies and foster resilience. I believe in the power of joy even amidst challenges, and I strive to infuse positivity and laughter into our sessions. By adopting a strengths-based approach, I help clients tap into their internal resources to effectively manage stressors and find moments of joy. Currently, I am in-network with Optum, Anthem, and United Healthcare and in the process of credentialing with Carefirst to ensure accessibility to quality mental health care. Join me on this journey towards empowerment and well-being. Let's work together to create positive change in your life. Clinical Supervision I also provide clinical supervision to social workers seeking individual licensure, providing a supportive environment to grow clinical skills, enhance writing abilities, and develop ethical practices in our work. Supervision sessions can be conducted on an individual or group basis, with virtual options available for added convenience and accessibility. Together, we will navigate the complexities of the field and foster professional growth and competence.
