Enoch Bullock, M.ED.
Resident
Mr. Bullock earned his Bachelor of Science in Psychology from Virginia Commonwealth University in 2022. While pursuing his undergraduate degree, he was involved in research aimed at etiological and genetic factors contributing to post-traumatic conditions and substance use-related disorders. He went on to obtain a Master of Education in Clinical Mental Health Counseling with a specialty in Military Veterans from William and Mary’s School of Education in 2024.
Mr. Bullock has worked with diverse clinical populations, including adolescents, young adults, and older adults with PTSD, SUD, TBI and related comorbidities through the Richmond VA Medical Center's PTSD Clinical Team and Mental Health Primary Integration Team. His experience working within the VCU Health System with various acute and chronic psychiatric conditions has fueled his interest in treating mood-related and personality disorders. He also has experience with adolescents and young adults in private practice, university, and CSB settings. His experiences have fostered a passion for supporting Veterans and civilians facing mental health challenges.
Mr. Bullock aims to provide culturally informed care to those within various communities. This was what led him to work and assist with research both in private practice and the university setting aimed towards emotional and adjustment concerns, relationships, anxiety, and depression of those from diverse backgrounds.
When it comes to therapy, Mr. Bullock utilizes a strengths-based approach with foundations in person-centered techniques to aid clients in developing, maintaining, and identifying a strong sense of self and autonomy. He implements cognitive behavioral techniques to assist clients in gaining a better understanding of their own thoughts and behaviors, and dialectical-behavioral techniques to provide tools that help promote adaptive coping and regulation when strong emotions are experienced. He also utilizes interventions from cognitive processing and prolonged exposure techniques to assist clients’ unhelpful thoughts and avoidance behaviors, and acceptance and commitment techniques to promote cognitive flexibility in line with newfound insights. His practice is guided by a humanistic approach where self-actualization is a key part of growth within many different life stages and transitions.
Overall, Mr. Bullock’s goal is to provide clients with a welcoming and empowering environment where they can experience being seen and heard in a nonjudgmental and empathetic manner. He aims to provide a space where clients find strategies and techniques to improve their lives. Therapy is a journey, so let’s embark on it together, not alone.
