VALETA WILSON, LCSW, LICSW

My passion for aiding those debilitated by mental illness—depression, anxiety, or trauma—inspired me to start Ox Advocacy & Mental Health Services. Witnessing the transformative power of quality therapeutic intervention in countless lives has been incredibly fulfilling. I find a particular gift in working with adolescents and young adults, guiding them towards improved well-being.

Virtual Therapy Advantage

Ox Advocacy & Mental Health Services stands out through years of experience, a refined clinical skillset, and an innovative virtual-based therapy approach. Our clients benefit from convenient, effective counseling that produces favorable results and transforms lives, right from the comfort of their own space. I primarily serve adolescents and adults. Additionally, Ox Advocacy & Mental Health Services places a strong emphasis on building trust and fostering meaningful connections with clients. By creating a safe, non-judgmental environment, we empower individuals to open up, explore their emotions, and address challenges in a way that feels authentic and supportive. This personalized, compassionate approach ensures that every client feels truly heard and understood throughout their healing journey.
