About Virginia
Virginia Dickinson is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) licensed in Colorado with nine years of clinical experience. She helps people manage stress, anxiety, grief, depression, relationship concerns, addictions, and other life changes. Sessions focus on practical steps and problem solving rather than abstract theory.
Before clinical work she spent time in education, the arts, and management. That background shapes a straightforward, interactive style. She blends client-centered listening with goal-focused tools so conversations lead to action.
Virginia uses methods that encourage present-moment awareness, examine unhelpful thinking patterns, and highlight small changes that make daily life easier. She draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Solution-Focused practices to help people test new habits and track progress. Mindfulness work is included when slowing down and noticing patterns helps break reactivity.
In sessions she often helps people sort priorities, improve communication, and make plans for coping with strong emotions or difficult events. Practical topics include sleeping, intimacy-related issues, parenting concerns, career decisions, and navigating losses. She also addresses attachment, abandonment, caregiving stress, chronic illness impacts, and body image questions.
Her style is interactive and directive when needed. Clients collaborate on goals and steps they can try between meetings. Fees vary with location and sessions use a subscription that can be canceled at any time.
BHow sessions work
How her approaches translate to online therapy
Virginia draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Solution-Focused Therapy in online work. CBT helps identify patterns of thought and behavior that contribute to anxiety or low mood and then tests small changes to see what helps. Solution-Focused Therapy centers on clear, short-term goals and practical steps the client can try between sessions, which fits well with remote check-ins.Mindfulness Therapy is also part of her practice when slowing down helps reduce reactivity or improve sleep. Mindfulness work online usually means short guided practices and noticing what comes up, along with discussion of how those moments show up in daily life. The therapist will review which methods seem helpful and tailor sessions to the client's preferences and goals in collaboration with the client.
The original biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm current options before booking. Many people find online sessions make it easier to fit meetings into workdays, reduce travel time, and allow for shorter check-ins when needed. The focus is on finding practical methods that fit the client's life and schedule rather than promising any particular service.
