Welcome! ¡Bienvenido! I provide therapy sessions in English and Spanish. My name is Virginia Powers, and I am a Therapist Trainee working to become a licensed Marriage and Family Therapist and Professional Clinical Counselor. I am working under the supervision of Melinda Haynes, MA, LMFT 102308, at Family and Children Counseling Services. Mental health is vital to being your best self. Our inherent strength gives us the power to overcome any challenge and obstacle life puts in our way. I am here to guide and empower you to bring forth that strength and heal from life's hurts.

Psychotherapy is a journey toward healing that we take together. I believe you have all the resources you need within you. Psychotherapy is designed to awaken and mobilize them. My clients frequently report that in addition to resolving the problems that brought them into therapy - a depression has lifted, a work conflict or relationship difficulty worked through - what has changed is the way they feel about themselves. They feel stronger, more connected to themselves at a core level and capable of achieving their vision of what they want their lives to be.

Our world is full of stories and it can be hard to decide which of these stories truly serve you. The people in our lives may have lots of ideas about what we should think or do, and it can be hard to cut through the white noise to identify what you really want. Do you ever feel so lost in others' stories that you find it difficult to hear yourself? With so many story tellers around you, is there any space for you to be the author? You have a story to tell. Whether you're anxious about a looming exam, processing the passing of a loved one, or just living your life, your story should be heard - and respected - fully.

Are you searching for a therapist to support you with the impact of anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse (including narcissistic), grief and loss, or neurodiversity (e.g. autism, ADHD)?

I love to support individuals and families through life transitions, relational challenges, and navigating the stress of day to day life. Building trust is a critical part of the transformative process, so I emphasize creating a safe and warm environment for each client. My approach also incorporates practical skills and resources for clients to implement immediately to help you reach your goals.

I’m so happy you’re here! I understand that you’re ready for support as you are going through a rough patch or because you are ready to make significant changes to improve your inner life, practical life, work, or relationships. My own life is fuller and richer because I went for therapy and coaching at a couple of crucial times. I am grateful for the help in learning how to move beyond blind spots and through stuck spaces or misunderstandings. I think of my work as an offer to you where, from graduate school, life experience and coaching, I bring listening and pragmatic tools to help you live fully or change your life.

I find it rewarding to work with men and women who are skeptical or unfamiliar with psychotherapy. There are many different schools of psychotherapy and this can be confusing. I enjoy educating people as to how best to make use of psychotherapy for their particular needs or crisis. I promote an open dialogue about how our working together is feeling and whether it is producing the results they want. Some clients seek short term help while some seek deeper exploration into their personality, dreams and conflicts. For them I offer a Jungian Analytic approach.

Are you tired of feeling anxious, fearful & overwhelmed? Are you tired of your negative thoughts & patterns blocking you from accomplishing your daily goals, big or small? You feel stuck because your mind continues to tap into old stories that are creating self-doubt in who you want to be, what you want to do & what you want to have in your life. You’re tired of trying to figure it out alone & getting the same results. You finally want accountability, to learn how to decrease stress & to learn how to reverse engineer your thinking so that you can align with the women & mom you want to be & pursue what really excites you in life.

I help clients to know their strengths, how their cultures and families affect them, their needs and their purpose - their very selves. They may lack good ways to get their needs met. Or, they may not be asking the right questions. They may be looking for more calm, more joy and more control over their thoughts, feelings and behaviors.

Having a safe and supportive space where one can talk openly, is so very important. Feeling understood and listened to promotes growth and change. I am warm and understanding as well as insightful and objective, bringing experience and honesty to my work. Together we will talk about what’s going on now, past events and relationships, and how they might be affecting you. I will work to develop a trusting, supportive relationship to more clearly understand what is troubling you. My clients have enjoyed success in overcoming anxiety and depression, connecting with others, defining and attaining goals, and increasing self-esteem.

My approach to psychotherapy stems from a passionate commitment to the process of self-discovery. It entails working to create a space with each person in which feelings and worries can be named and articulated; deeply held troubles--traumatic histories and conflicts--can come to light, be examined and explored; and hope along with ideas for change can be generated. Through attuned listening, fragmented bits can be woven into lines of thought which over time become the shape of a personal and useful story. Treatment combines developing insights into unconsciously held beliefs and finding strategies for coping with life stresses.

I offer Sunday hours for busy individuals. It's natural to feel anxious about entering therapy because it involves sharing difficult aspects of your life. The process may be easier if you feel connected with your therapist. My approach is gentle, warm, and supportive so you can express yourself without fear of judgment or shame. My goals are to help you improve your coping skills, gain insight and clarity, identify your strengths, face challenges, and find some inner peace.

Congratulations on taking this FIRST step. Life’s challenges can leave you feeling defeated, exhausted, anxious and depressed. All of these feelings can take a toll on our daily lives, sense of self and relationships. However with the right therapeutic support those feelings can decrease or become easier and more manageable.
