ABOUT US
Resilience Counseling & Social Skills Center
Our Story:
Our practice was founded in November of 2017 by Karl G. Memmer, LPC. While creating the foundations for the practice, Mr. Memmer set several goals for the vision and mission of the organization:
The practice needed to be accessible to as many people as possible. In order to achieve this goal he knew the practice would have to be in-network and accept most major insurances, including medicaid plans. Unfortunately, many health care providers and organizations have opted out of accepting insurance, making care less accessible and affordable for most. In many of our Virginia communities this has put incredible pressure on public services provided by our local CSB’s. This creates long waitlists and have forced these organizations into triaging care, which is often brief and time-limited.
He sought to create a practice name and logo that would capture the essence of who we are. Resilience is what we hope to build, foster and portray in the individuals and communities we serve.
He sought to support as many people as possible in their mental health journey. Originally, he envisioned being a solo provider offering psychotherapy services to children, teens, adults and families. However, that quickly changed over time and since March of 2018 the practice has grown to including over 65 members of our team all focused on the same mission. We now offer a variety of mental health services under one roof including Counseling & Psychotherapy, Psychological Testing and Psychiatry.
He sought to provide excellent customer service. Often times; finding care can be frustrating. We often hear from clients that they have tried for a long time to find a counselor, psychotherapist or psychiatrist. Often we hear this experience involves clients not hearing back, unable to speak with a staff member or being told there is a long wait list or insurance is not accepted. While we are not perfect, as we grow, we have made every effort to employ a team of administrative professionals who are passionate about linking you to the best clinicians and services for your needs. If we are unable to help we make every effort to provide anyone who reaches out to us with resources.
He sought to provide a premier private practice experience to attract and maintain the most qualified and talented clinicians in Virginia. Mr. Memmer applied the many lessons he learned developing, managing and growing other behavioral health organizations prior to creating our practice. He wanted to create a practice structure that would attract and retain the most talented mental health professionals in Virginia. By maximizing efficiency, minimizing bureaucracy, retaining talented clinicians and encouraging the individual talents of each provider on our team we have been able to offer consistent, accessible and quality mental health services to anyone in Virginia.
