Greetings. There is nothing wrong with being concerned about others. However, it is just as important to focus on our own mental health as well. My aim is to assist my clients in working through issues such as anxiety, depression, poor boundaries, self-esteem issues, bipolar disorder, sexualized behaviors, personality disorders, and more to promote mental health well-being.

I am currently working towards my licensure as Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) and certification as a Certified Sex Offender Treatment Provider (CSOTP) in the state of Virginia. In 2017 I graduated from Marymount University in Arlington, Virginia with two master’s degrees in Forensic Psychology and Clinical Mental Health Counseling. I completed my Practicum at a non-profit serving individuals with dual diagnosis mental health and substance abuse disorders. I later completed my two semester internship at Counseling and Forensic Services, Inc – Where I am currently working as a Resident.

Dr. Flower is a clinical and forensic psychologist licensed in Virginia and Washington D.C., working with Woodbridge Psychological Services, in Woodbridge, Virginia. Dr. Flower provides psychotherapy for adults, couples, and families. He is trained in a variety of clinical approaches, with a focus on those treatments that have been scientifically shown to be helpful. In addition to his clinical services, his primary interest is in the field of forensic mental health assessment, primarily in criminal justice contexts.

If your relationship experiences haven't been optimal training ground for feeling whole, loveable, and secure in the world, I can help you understand your experiences, heal unresolved pain, and explore new ways to relate to yourself and others. In the safe container of therapy, you can explore your emotions and relationship cycles, and find new ways to connect. We all have the ability to grow beyond old patterns and emotional pain when given a nurturing space. I help couples learn how each partner responds to relationship distress and find safer ways to communicate needs, respond to conflict, and deepen emotional intimacy.

You are always enough regardless. Just show up as you are; it is okay and welcomed. This is a place of gentleness, empathy, compassion, and authenticity. We are here to both figuratively and literally walk alongside you in your therapy journey either as an individual, couple, or family. Here it is not about what is wrong with you; it is about what has happened to you OR about the negative cycle that you have been stuck in. We make sense of it together. Mutually, we make sense of the brokenness, the pain, the relational distress. All behavior has context and fractures in relationships can be healed.

With over 25 years of clinical experience, I support clients to access their inner resources and strengthen coping skills so they can design the life they seek. My work focuses on turning emotions into wisdom (emotion regulation), managing stress (distress tolerance), and teaching others how to treat us (interpersonal effectiveness). These skills can help us deepen the meaningful connections with loved ones and improve the overall quality of our lives.

Greetings! My name is Dr. Elizabeth U. Onyeali, PhD (a.k.a. Dr. Lizbet) and I am a Christian-based therapist who is here to walk alongside you.

Currently, I am only accepting new clients for forensic and clinical psychological evaluations. I work with attorneys whose clients are in custody, or otherwise engaged with the legal system, conducting competency to stand trial, sex offender and general risk assessments, mitigation at sentencing circumstances, and other mental health referral questions for individuals involved with the justice system. I approach psychological evaluations as a collaborative process utilizing multiple sources of information to obtain a thorough understanding of the client being evaluated.

Life presents challenges with the power to help us grow, yet we often get stuck or hurt in the process. Are you currently finding more problems than solutions? Do your thoughts, emotions, and memories lead to pain and poor decisions? Diving inward may be the first step to moving forward. Whether you’re an adult, a teen, or couple—a safe therapeutic space can help you unravel the different factors hindering your ability to break through barriers (e.g. addiction, trauma, relationship issues, mood disorders, poor coping skills, anxiety, etc.).

If you are scouring over these therapist sites, you are in the market to find some help. It can be daunting to call a therapist you have never met and try to find someone to understand you. You should take your time, interview therapists and find a good fit. It is okay to shop and to decide not to make an appointment. Or, if you choose to call and come in, please get to know me in the first session. Ask questions. I will outline the way I work, explain my philosophy and help you voice your goals for treatment. I will listen but will also tell you what I think. If directness is for you, I am your therapist.
