About Dr. Valerie McGaha

Is stress, anxiety, and depression weighing you down? Are your relationships missing love and joy? Is addiction, trauma, or loss holding you back from a life of joy? Do you find your self-lacking motivation to live your dreams? Are you tired of feeling sad, frustrated, agitated, angry, depressed or anxious. Are you ready for change in your life? My passion is to help you improve your live and reach your goals. I increase awareness and find stuck points and life circumstances that prevent you from living your true self. I help individuals and family members who struggle with addiction and long-term sobriety. Trauma can increase depression, anxiety, and relationship struggles that make it difficult to life your life and to love fully. I will work with you to enhance self compassion, joy, vitality, life, and love. You are unique in ethnicity, religion, cultural background, sexual orientation, ability status, socioeconomic status, and gender identity. I provide a safe and compassionate environment for you to be raw, honest, and open to personal transformations from hurting to healing. Let’s discover the gold in you! My specialized techniques can increase your confidence, decision making, self-discovery, health, and improved life. I provide science-based knowledge and collaborative support to individuals who struggle with mental health and co-occurring disorders associated with depression and anxiety. I have extensive knowledge on suicide prevention, intervention, and postvention. There is life and joy on the other side of sadness and loneliness. You can discover and enjoy emotional sobriety and internal resources.
