About Lemuel
Lemuel Williams is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Virginia with 13 years of clinical experience. He meets people where they are and helps them weigh options at life's crossroads. His approach aims to make change feel manageable rather than overwhelming.
He focuses on common concerns such as stress, anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder, and trauma and abuse. He also helps with relationship and intimacy-related issues, parenting strain, grief, and career stress.
Background and approach
His practice includes attention to ADHD, compassion fatigue, and body image concerns. Lemuel draws on Narrative therapy alongside attachment-based and client-centered ideas to understand how life stories shape current problems. He pairs that with practical tools from cognitive behavioral and dialectical behavior approaches when helpful.
Sessions emphasize the client's strengths and real choices rather than labels. He has worked with people affected by abandonment, adoption and foster care experiences, attachment issues, and blended family challenges. He also supports those dealing with caregiving stress, codependency, and difficult communication patterns.
His background includes focused work with trauma related to sexual abuse, domestic violence, and loss. Sessions are offered in English and French. Lemuel sees both local and international clients and uses several online formats to fit different needs.
The first step is a short matching questionnaire and choosing a time that fits the client's schedule.

Narrative Therapy in this listing
Narrative Therapy appears in this therapist's own list of approaches. That tells you it is part of how he works. It does not tell you how much of a session it shapes, and this directory does not check or rate training.
If a narrative approach is what you are looking for, it is worth asking Lemuel directly how he uses it and what a session usually looks like.
Online session options
How therapeutic approaches translate to online care
Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on how early relationships shape current connections and emotional patterns. Online sessions use this lens to help people notice how past bonds influence present reactions and to practice new ways of relating.Narrative Therapy looks at the stories people tell about themselves and their lives. In remote sessions, the therapist helps separate someone from a problem and rewrite parts of their story to reflect strengths and preferred values.
Client-Centered Therapy centers the client's perspective and pace. The therapist follows each person's lead, offering empathy and reflection so clients feel heard and can decide what changes matter most.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist collaborates with each client to try methods that match their needs, goals, and comfort. That flexible process can mean combining story work, attachment insight, and skill-based practice over time.
Online formats - video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text messaging - make it easier to fit sessions into busy lives. Video lets people see nonverbal cues, phone calls work with lower bandwidth, live chat can be a shorter check-in during a break, and text messaging supports ongoing reflections between meetings. These options increase flexibility and help maintain continuity of care across locations and schedules.
