Dr. Ed-Dee Williams' clinical focus is primarily on the needs of Black and Brown individuals experiencing depression, anxiety, and attachment difficulties. Ed-Dee approaches his work with clients with a strength-based perspective looking to support their needs by helping them identify their own strengths and abilities and support them fully throughout the discovery process. Additionally, Ed-Dee uses culturally relevant techniques and adapts his approaches to fit the identity and needs of each individual client.
