About Dominque
Dominque Proctor is a Licensed Independent Social Worker (LISW) based in Ohio who focuses on stress, anxiety, relationship challenges, low self-esteem, depression, and coping with life changes. He also helps people struggling with addictions, trauma and abuse, intimacy concerns, career questions, and compassion fatigue. Dominque uses plain, practical strategies so clients know what to expect from sessions.
He keeps sessions warm and direct. He invites honest talk and also asks clients to try new habits between meetings.
Background and approach
That mix of support and accountability helps people notice change and keep moving forward. Short-term coping skills and longer-term pattern work both have a place in his approach. Dominque draws on several evidence-based approaches, including the Gottman Method for relationship work, Client-Centered Therapy for a respectful, listening stance, and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for changing unhelpful thoughts and behaviors.
He also uses Dialectical Behavior Therapy skills for emotion regulation and existential ideas when people want to explore meaning and values. Before clinical practice he completed a Bachelor of Social Work and a Master of Social Work at Ohio University Zanesville. He brings five years of clinical experience from outpatient, intensive outpatient, and partial hospitalization settings.
That experience informs how he guides people through both crisis and steady change. Outside work he enjoys traveling, following Ohio State Buckeyes football, staying active, and time with family and friends. He aims to help each person set clear goals, track progress, and build skills that fit their daily life.

Online support
Therapeutic approaches and online support
Dominque commonly uses the Gottman Method to address relationship patterns and communication problems, offering practical exercises couples or partners can try between sessions to reduce conflict and improve connection. He also draws on Client-Centered Therapy, which focuses on listening closely and helping people find their own answers through acceptance and reflection. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy is another key tool he uses to identify and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors that contribute to anxiety and low mood.Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist works together with each person to match methods to specific goals, preferences, and the issues at hand. That shared planning helps make sessions feel focused and relevant from the start.
Online sessions are offered as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to fit diverse schedules and needs. Video is useful for longer therapy work that benefits from face-to-face interaction. Phone sessions can be an easier option when bandwidth is limited or during a short check-in. Live chat and messaging allow for flexible, brief exchanges and ongoing tracking of progress between calls. These options make it easier to maintain consistency and integrate therapy into a busy life.
