Great to meet you!

George E. Pipkin III, LPC

Life can get overwhelming, but you don't have to figure it out alone. I'm George, a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) with more than 10 years of experience. Whether you're facing anxiety, relationship challenges, grief, or simply feeling stuck, I'll meet you where you are with honesty, compassion, and a little humor when it's needed.

My approach to therapy

I believe therapy should be a conversation, not a lecture. My style is warm, direct, and solution-focused—I listen without judgment, ask thoughtful questions, and help clients identify practical steps they can take between sessions. I work with adolescents, adults, couples, and families experiencing anxiety, depression, grief, life transitions, relationship challenges, and stress. Whether you're facing a major life event or simply feeling stuck, we'll work together to help you gain clarity, build confidence, and move toward the life you want.

What you can expect from me

The first session is really about getting to know each other. We'll talk about what's bringing you to therapy, what you've been dealing with, and what you hope to get out of our time together. There's no pressure to have all the answers or share everything at once; I move at your pace. My goal is for you to leave feeling heard, comfortable, and with a better sense of how we can work together moving forward.
