About Valerie
Valerie Savoie is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) licensed in Colorado and Florida with 28 years of clinical experience. She works with adults on stress, anxiety, family and parenting concerns, self-esteem, life changes, relationships, grief, sleep, career issues and coaching. Valerie uses straightforward talk and practical skills to help people manage everyday pressure.
Valerie focuses on building a trusting relationship where clients can speak openly about what feels difficult. She uses client-centered methods to help people understand what they want to change. Sessions often include learning concrete skills and techniques to handle stress, shift unhelpful thoughts, and strengthen coping. She also draws on mindfulness to support calm and focus.
Her approach blends solution-focused work with cognitive behavioral ideas. That means short-term goal setting and attention to thinking patterns that affect mood and behavior. Valerie helps people set small steps they can try between sessions and checks progress along the way.
She has extensive experience with family conflict, parenting questions, relationship concerns, and transitions such as divorce or separation. Valerie regularly addresses issues tied to shame, guilt, body image, isolation, and workplace stress. Her practice also supports people facing midlife questions, grief, and finding life purpose.
Practical matters are part of her work. She asks for photo ID and contact information as required by her license. People who prefer daily message-based contact should note she is part time and does not respond to messages every day.
BHow sessions work
How Valerie uses CBT, client-centered work and mindfulness online
Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and reflecting so people can identify what matters most to them. It helps clarify goals and priorities and guides sessions by the client’s concerns.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts and behaviors influence mood. It involves tracking patterns, testing new ways of thinking, and practicing skills that reduce anxiety and improve sleep and coping.
Mindfulness therapy teaches simple attention and breathing practices to reduce reactivity and increase focus. It can be useful for stress, sleep problems, and managing upsetting emotions.
Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. Valerie will collaborate with each person to pick strategies that match their needs, goals, and daily life. She checks in and adjusts the plan as progress is made.
Session logistics should be confirmed before booking because formats were not listed in the biography. Ask which session types are offered so you can choose what fits your schedule. Many people use online sessions to fit therapy into evenings or weekend time, make shorter check-ins during a work break, or avoid travel time. These practical benefits can make it easier to keep consistent appointments and practice new skills between sessions.
