Therapists in 22030

Are you struggling with trauma, PTSD, addiction, eating disorders, bipolar disorder, BPD, or grief? I am here to help clients work through significant life stressors and emotional experiences. Even in the most difficult of circumstances, I try to help my clients find hope and learn the skills necessary to create a life they truly enjoy. My ideal client will appreciate an honest, direct approach that also emphasizes humor and creativity for a truly unique therapy experience.

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor and have been working with individuals, couples, and families for over 15 years. Through listening and accepting, my overall goal of the therapeutic process is to improve your level of functioning and to enhance your life. I utilize a strength-based approach and focus on each client's individual needs.

People come to therapy looking for solutions to real-world problems. My therapeutic approach is interactive, strength-based and practical. Using empathy, humor, and an objective perspective, I will collaborate with you to develop an effective, down-to-earth approach to your current life challenges, as well as long-standing personal concerns. My job is to assist you in using your own self-knowledge to draw on your unique strengths and personal resources to respond to your challenges. We'll work together to put problems into a workable perspective and to create a realistic plan for addressing those problems.

Currently accepting new clients. Let’s cut to the chase, I help people who are looking for self-growth, who want their relationships to improve, who are exploring ADHD issues, and people who want to figure out how to heal from hardship/trauma. We work together to discover the things that are getting in your way of reaching the goals and changes you want. Whether it’s a traumatic experience, toxic relationships, dealing with a beast of an inner critic, or uncertainty of what the problem even is, we will figure it out together. I also have particular specialties working with fellow therapists and military members/families.

Are you ready to change your life? As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, I have worked with individual, couples and families for over twenty years. My goal is to help you enhance your life, improve your overall functioning and have a better understanding on how to care for yourself. My approach is gentle but direct and strength based.

Making the initial contact with a therapist can be frightening and my first task is to assist you in feeling comfortable getting help for yourself. This can also bring a sense of relief. My early career experiences at a crisis center and community mental health center have given me the ability to diagnose and treat a wide variety of problems. My specialty is in treating acute and/or chronic depression and anxiety; adults with a history of abuse; and longstanding relationship and personality issues. I welcome into treatment older adolescents, adults of all ages, couples and partners, and families.

Do you struggle with depression, anxiety, relationship conflicts, self-esteem, or career concerns? Do these issues keep you from reaching your full potential? Together, we will create a path to wellness so that you can focus on the aspects of your life that bring meaning and fulfillment. I am a licensed clinical psychologist who works with adults, adolescents, and couples to overcome life's challenges, improve mental health, develop strategies to manage careers, and have satisfying relationships. I am holistic in my work and I am able to integrate both mental health and career counseling if this approach fits your needs.

Ideally, our early experiences of connection were secure, safe, accessible, and responsive and we developed an internal sense of ourselves as loveable, worthy, and deserving of getting our needs met. But what happens when this has not been our experience? Many of us have had to find ways to adapt and survive moments of disconnect, invalidation, or criticism. This can often mean we hold beliefs about ourselves that are limiting, worry that we have to hide or minimize parts of who we are, deny certain emotions, hustle for our worth, and/or build up layers of protection. I can support you to heal, connect and create lasting change.

Accepting new clients -The Center for Connection, Healing & Change focuses on the creation of secure, close, and satisfying relationships- within us and between us. We choose to specialize in relationships because we know the importance of satisfying connections for our mental, emotional, and physical well-being. Services explore the relationship we have with both ourselves and others; how well we can live with emotional ease, know who we are, ask for what we need, be responsive to loved ones, set boundaries, deal with loss, heal trauma, move through stressful experiences, find our purpose, and access resilience in moments of need.

I am a Social Worker licensed in Virginia with over 10 years of experience. I have worked with clients with a wide range of concerns including: anxiety, relationship issues, career challenges. I specialize in working with POC and persons within the LGBTQ+ communities.

I am a Virginia-based Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) who has been practicing for 7 years. I earned my Master's from Troy State University in Alabama. I provide individual and couples therapy with a focus on resolving functionally impairing issues associated with anxiety, relationships, mood disorders, and trauma. I utilize common analogies to assist with providing varied perspectives so clients can recognize the depth of their potential.

I specialize in cultivating a safe space for couples to reconnect, resolve well-worn patterns, and repair old wounds. It might be that each of you has a different way of navigating emotions, conflict, disconnection, or stress. For most couples, this includes one partner pursuing for connection or resolution, upping the ante when they can’t feel their important other, while the other partner withdraws or shut down in an effort to reduce tension and diffuse the conflict. Many couples find these different relational strategies can lead to cycles of frustration, misunderstanding, pain, and protectiveness they can’t find a way out of.

I consider it a privilege to do the work I do—in fact, helping others heal, grow, and thrive every day brings great meaning to my life. I know from personal experience how life can sometimes feel unbearable. I also know from personal experience what it is like to work closely with a gifted psychologist to create a new perspective and a new life that are even better than before. I am passionate about providing the highest-quality mental health services to each of my clients and would love the opportunity to support you through this time.

Sometimes we find ourselves in a place where we feel stuck or lost and have a sense of wanting to change the way things are. Therapy can help. I aim to provide you with a safe, compassionate, non-judgmental space where you can explore the thoughts, feelings, and behaviors that are distressing or overwhelming. Therapy is a collaborative process in which you gain greater insight into yourself, a better understanding of your strengths, and learn how to enact positive changes in your present life. I provide individual and couples therapy to adults of all backgrounds and experiences to clients based in NC or VA.

Break Free from sadness and stress! Veritas Counseling is a general counseling practice treating many of life's issues: anxiety, depression, couples counseling, family therapy, postpartum, child behaviors, parent coaching, trauma, PTSD, autism, ADHD, stress management, grief, death, and career counseling.  We do not participate with any insurance companies, but we will give you a detailed receipt to submit to your insurance for reimbursement of fees.

We help couples build person-to-person, heart-to-heart, soul-to-soul connections. We all long to be seen, heard, understood, held, and cherished by our precious person. Being in secure connection often conflicts with how life has shaped us. For many of us, relationship experiences have included bumps in the road, needs have been missed, wounds have developed, protections have grown, trust has been broken, limited beliefs have emerged, and parts of us have been hidden away. We help couples explore how life has influenced their interactions and then find lasting ways to heal, connect, repair, meet unmet needs, and build security.

Hi, My name is Kristel. I am an LCSW who provides talk therapy via Telehealth. I am a multifaceted individual with a deep well of life experiences that inform my perspective. As a former military brat and spouse, I've intimately understood the complexities of life's transitions. My journey has taken me from being a stay-at-home mom to transitioning back into the workforce, granting me a unique appreciation for both roles.

Hello! My name is Newzaira, which translates to someone who sees's the good in others. Do you feel that at times you struggle with finding a deeper meaning in life? Or that little things can trigger a large emotional response? Is it hard to draw kindness to your experiences and others around you?

I have worked as a counselor for 7 years and have worked with children, adolescents, and adults with various diagnoses and in a variety of settings such as intensive in-home, school based, addiction/recovery, outpatient, and supervisory roles. Counseling needs to be a safe place and a counselor needs to be a person who can handle talking about the tough stuff. Counseling is not polite conversation. I begin the counseling relationship with developing emotional safety, educating clients about mental health and creating a better understanding of what is going on with them, processing their experiences, and developing a "toolbox" to
