Therapists in Virginia Beach, VA

Are you pregnant and experiencing some anxiety related to being a Mom? Do you find yourself crying, feeling overwhelmed or wanting to be alone? Are you in a stage of life transition?

Life challenges have a way of interfering with our daily lives. I believe that the challenges come to help us re-examine our lives and discover ways to overcome difficulties and live life to the fullest. My focus as a Therapist/Resident is to serve the needs of others by using my theoretical approaches, 20 years working with individuals, families and children, and spiritual based framework. Through my training and experience, I recognize the need to create a safe place to explore life struggles, change negative behaviors and thoughts, rebuild relationships, and practice new skill building techniques through therapy.

I specialize in treating children with ADHD, anxiety, a history of trauma or trauma experiences, depression, and mood disorders.

Sometimes in life it can be difficult to find your path of growth due to past, current or unforeseen stressors.

I want you to reach whatever goals and life changes you are looking for while enjoying the process as much as possible, and experiencing yourself in new ways.

Whether your goal is to increase your levels of joy, peace, and order, reduce and better manage stress, or generally improve your outlook on life, if you desire to be more involved in the outcomes of your life, I'm here to help. Taking the first step of being a willing participant and being open to establishing new "life rules" can improve your ability to cope, increase your chances at achieving your goals, and improve outcomes that are important to you.

Hello, I'm Icy Diamond, a licensed social worker at Radical Change Therapy where I provide a collaborative and safe environment for children to develop healthy behavior patterns and positive coping strategies while working alongside their families to understand their reactions and behavior through the lens of intergenerational interpersonal trauma. Processing family trauma allows parents to understand and rework how they show up for their children, children to seize the maturity and motivation to create new family legacies, and families as a whole to build the rapport and resilience needed to heal and move forward together.

Life throws curveballs. And another. And another. You may find yourself in conflict of your own doing or of someone's or something else. Some can navigate these changes and conflicts with natural supports and resilience. For the rest, there is therapy. Therapy gives the support to ask the questions one hesitates to and supports one through the journey of healing. Life is tough, but therapy is the place where one realizes they are tougher.
