Tonya E. Goff
LPC, CADC
Hello, I am Tonya Goff a Licensed Professional Counselor and a Certified Substance Abuse Counselor. I am a military veteran who served 20 years in the US Navy and obtained my graduate degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Liberty University.
When dealing with the burdens of life, whether it be marital/family discord, addiction, or emotional issues, we are often unsure about what our next step should be. My goal is to provide you with tools for your toolbox to better assist you in making those difficult decisions as you continue your journey and walk into your destiny.
My passion is working with youth, young adults, couples, self-esteem issues, and substance use disorders. I typically use an integrated approach that includes Cognitive Behavior Therapy, Person Centered Therapy, Motivational Interviewing and Solution Focused Therapy.
It is my desire that during our time working together you will be restored, renewed, and revived. I understand this may not be an easy process to go through, and I thank you for even considering me to walk alongside you. I won’t lie, you may experience an array of emotions, and even some challenges as well as delays along the way. However, if you trust the process, I believe that you will be well equipped to handle those tough situations that come your way.

Carisa Young,
Clinical Mental Health Counselor Intern
​
I am a student intern earning my Master of Arts in Clinical Mental Health Counseling at Liberty University. I have been married for eight years and I have four children. I understand life brings mountains and valleys, and I am passionate about serving others as they walk through both. It is my belief that no one, no matter the age, gender, social status etc. should have to struggle in silence, or alone. I have six years' experience working with children ages three to twelve, as a ministry teacher and leader. As a prior active duty service member, now military spouse, I have over a decade of experience working with and serving the military community. I have had the greatest privilege to work with couples, growing and strengthening marriages, for the last three years. I understand that no two people are the same, which is why I believe in using the best therapeutic approach and techniques that best fit the client.
