Background and approach

Clifford is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) licensed in Georgia - GA LPC LPC008943 - and has long worked with people facing substance use challenges, mental disabilities, and other complex life stressors. Clifford favors evidence-based strategies rooted in cognitive behavioral principles while drawing on additional methods as needed.

His practice addresses a wide range of concerns including addictions, trauma and abuse, anxiety, relationship difficulties, grief, parenting challenges, self-esteem, career questions, and ADHD. He also works with issues such as domestic violence, multicultural concerns, and motivation for change.

Clifford’s style emphasizes collaboration, practical skills, and tailoring interventions to each person’s needs, with an aim to help clients build coping skills and move toward clearer goals.

Approaches that inform online counseling and practical work



Clifford often uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help clients identify unhelpful thinking patterns and develop concrete skills for managing anxiety, stress, addiction-related behaviors, and other challenges. This approach focuses on linking thoughts, feelings, and actions to create measurable change in daily life. He also draws on Motivational Interviewing to help people clarify their own reasons for change and strengthen commitment when ambivalence is present; this approach is helpful for substance use, behavior change, and stages of readiness.

Choosing the right approach is treated as a collaborative process. The therapist works with each person to assess goals, preferences, and responses to different techniques, adjusting the mix of strategies over time so the work remains personally meaningful and effective.

Online sessions are offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to provide flexibility for busy schedules and varying communication styles. These formats make it possible to continue therapy from home or work and to use brief check-ins or longer sessions depending on need, improving access while keeping the focus on practical skill-building and progress.
