About Walterson
Walterson Torchon is a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor (LCPC) practicing in Maryland with nine years of counseling experience. He works with adults facing stress, anxiety, anger, relationship strain, parenting challenges, grief, trauma and abuse, and changes in life circumstances. Sessions are offered in English and Haitian Creole.
He uses a practical, person-centered approach that treats the client as the expert in their own life. Walterson draws on several evidence-based methods to address worries, difficult feelings, and patterns that keep repeating. He focuses on building skills rather than relying on labels.
In sessions he helps people notice unhelpful thinking and replace it with clearer thinking and healthier habits. That can mean learning ways to tolerate strong emotions, changing behaviors that cause problems, or practicing new communication skills. He uses acceptance and commitment ideas alongside cognitive techniques to support those steps.
Walterson has experience working in clinics, school settings, and criminal justice-related programs. That background informs how he works with people who are managing loss, trauma, or conflict within families. He also offers guidance for adults juggling parenting demands with other life stressors.
His style is straightforward and strengths-focused. The work centers on practical skills such as emotion regulation, communication, and problem-solving. Prospective clients are invited to complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule an initial session to see how his approach fits their needs.
How Walterson uses therapy approaches online
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) encourages noticing thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them. It focuses on identifying personal values and taking small actions that match those values, which helps when anger gets in the way of important goals.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at thinking patterns and behaviors that reinforce anger. It breaks those patterns into manageable steps, teaching practical techniques to spot unhelpful thoughts and try different responses that lead to fewer conflicts.
Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. Walterson collaborates with each person to decide which methods fit their goals and daily life. He will check in about what’s helping and adjust the plan based on what the client reports.
Confirm the current session options before booking so you know how sessions are delivered. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when schedules are tight, and let people choose whether to use video or another supported format. These practical choices help reduce barriers to practicing new skills and using them where anger shows up most often.
