Kelly A. Rusher
Introduction
The counseling process is unique to each individual and commands a trusting, authentic partnership. From a strength-based perspective, I strive to foster growth in each client and support their journey towards self-determination. I believe that growth is always possible and want to help each client become the person they want to be. This happens through a safe, non-judgemental environment where we connect and identify what is getting in the way. Recognizing that there is no one-size-fits all counseling, I utilize a variety of techniques from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Narrative Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy. I believe in a supportive and collaborative approach that includes identifying patterns, practicing strategies for change and processing client responses. Change is hard, and I hope to give each client the space and support needed to tackle whatever is keeping them from their goals. I earned a Bachelor of Arts from the University of Virginia and a Master of Social Work from N.C. State University. I am a Licensed Clinical Social Work Associate with experience working with college students, teens, and adults in the nonprofit sector, foster care system, and college setting.
