Our therapists offer DBT / dialectical behavior therapy in Henrico, VA

My name is Jacquita White, and I hold a Master’s degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling. I am currently working toward full licensure while providing compassionate, client-centered care under supervision. I work with preteens, adolescents, and adults who may be navigating stress, life transitions, anxiety, relationship challenges, or emotional overwhelm. My goal is to create a supportive space where clients feel heard, respected, and empowered as they work toward meaningful change and personal growth.

My approach to therapy is warm, supportive, and collaborative. I use Cognitive Behavioral therapy, Dialectical Behavior therapy, and Person-Centered therapy to help clients manage anxiety, stress, and life transitions while building healthier coping skills, emotional balance, and greater self-awareness.

Reaching out for support can feel like a big step, but you do not have to navigate life’s challenges alone. My goal is to provide a safe, supportive environment where you feel heard and understood. If you are ready to begin your healing journey, I would be honored to walk alongside you.

I am a Resident in Counseling with over 14 years of experience helping individuals and families navigate life’s challenges. I’ve supported clients in foster care, crisis stabilization, and substance abuse treatment, and work with people of all ages facing anxiety, depression, trauma, or major life transitions. My passion lies in helping others improve self-esteem, manage stress, strengthen relationships, and find healing from past experiences.

I earned my master’s in clinical mental health counseling from Norfolk State University. My approach is collaborative and supportive, using cognitive behavioral therapy to help you recognize and change unhelpful thought patterns. I focus on building resilience, self-awareness, and the practical tools needed to create lasting, meaningful growth.

Reaching out for support takes courage, and I want you to know you don’t have to do it alone. Healing and growth are possible, and I’m here to walk beside you as you take the next step toward a more balanced, fulfilling life. I invite you to begin your journey toward greater peace, strength, and self-discovery today.

Renea Smith is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) with over a year of supervised clinical counseling experience, working with seniors, adults, adolescents, families, and couples in private practice settings. Renea also has over 14 years of experience in school counseling. Having grown up in a multi-generational home during her adolescent years and having served both the comprehensive and exceptional education school settings, she has a deep-rooted admiration and respect for the older population, parents, educators, caregivers of children with unique needs and abilities. She seeks to provide support to those in need of an extra dose of reassurance, unconditional positive regard, and relevant coping skills to take care of themselves as they take care of others around them.

As a former Peace Corps Volunteer (South Africa 1999-2001) who earned her Master's degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Liberty University, Renea believes it is paramount to show honor to all people and the history we each bring into this world we share. She has clinical experience working with a diverse array of individuals. Each individual, as well as their personal struggles and resources of strength, insight, and rich experience are warmly welcomed into her counseling room.

Renea welcomes this awesome opportunity to not only educate, guide, and empower, but also to learn, grow, and even play---together!

Renea believes one of the most effective ways of forming meaningful interpersonal connectivity is by being intentional in one’s effort in “seeing” the individuals she is privileged to “share space” with.
