Andrea Perez, QMHP-C

Elise Gibson, LCSW, is a Part-Time Therapist providing individual counseling on Tuesday and Thursday evenings. She provides a strength-based and empowerment-focused approach to treatment. She believes all people have a natural bend toward wellness and that therapy can help tap into those already present internal resources. She has a specific interest in the neurobiology of trauma and has received specialized training in Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR).

Andrea Perez, QMHP-C, is the Client Support and Referral Specialist, supporting therapists to find additional community resources for clients. She works at our Jefferson School City Center office on Mondays, Tuesdays and Fridays. Andrea is currently attending Virginia Commonwealth University in pursuit of a Master’s in Social Work and is passionate about being an agent of change in the community.
