Lee Anne Dickerson, PsyD, was raised in a home that was very active in ministry to children and the poor. This fostered a special love in her heart and passion for children and families. She brings two generations of wisdom into her practice, which continues to help children and families foster healthy connections and repair broken relationships. When working with Dr. Dickerson, parents can expect to be welcomed into a warm, supportive, and collaborative working relationship. Children will find she delights in their individuality and will work toward solutions and growth in a fun and engaging way. Dr. Dickerson completed her Doctor of Psychology degree from Regent University in 2001 and has been in the mental health field for over 20 years. She is licensed as a clinical psychologist in both Georgia (#PSY004236) and her native state of Virginia (#0810003264). Dr. Dickerson has worked in various settings including in-patient psychiatric hospitals, residential treatment center, and private practice. In addition, she has taught undergraduate and graduate level psychology courses. She views clients through the lenses of Attachment Theory and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT). Dr. Dickerson is sensitive to the physical, emotional, cognitive, social, and spiritual needs of her clients. Her graduate training focused on integrating faith with psychology, and she is more than happy to incorporate faith into therapy when requested, while welcoming individuals from all faith, non-faith, and cultural backgrounds. Dr. Dickerson values continuing education and is trained in Trust-Based Relational Intervention (R) (TBRI), Parent-Child Interaction Therapy (PCIT), Theraplay (R), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), and the EAGALA model of equine assisted therapy. Dr. Dickerson has extensive experience working with foster and adoptive families in both child welfare agencies and private practice. She recognizes the unique needs of the child, the parents, and additional siblings in the home. Seeing the need for social support for these families, Dr. Dickerson developed a day camp for adoptive families utilizing the TBRI model and equine assisted therapy. Dr. Dickerson also provides psychological testing for foster and adoptive children. Testing provides diagnostic clarification and practical recommendations for parents, care givers, and child care workers. Dr. Dickerson believes it is a privilege and honor to be a part of telling each child’s story and providing assistance for their care and healing.
