EMDR Therapists in Albemarle County, VA

Greetings! I am Anne Luckinbill, LPC. Seasons Counseling has a team of caring therapists who are skilled at assessing and diagnosing mental health concerns based on current struggles and your historical information. Your concerns about behavior, emotion, personality, and relationships will be treated using Emotionally Focused Therapy, EMDR, and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy. Trauma concerns will be addressed with an understanding that trauma impacts daily function and interactions. Likewise, early relationships and attachment patterns impact our current relationships. We serve children, adolescents, adults, families, and couples.

I offer individual therapy for adults and adolescents, and specialize in working with women and teens dealing with the impact of sexual assault, childhood abuse, or other trauma. Other areas of clinical interest include relationship issues, life transitions, anxiety, and identity questions. I believe therapy is a collaborative process that allows us to be deeply seen and heard, and to see ourselves in new and transformative ways. It can build self-esteem and strengthen our sense of who we are and how we fit into the world. As we understand ourselves more fully, relationships with others become richer and more fulfilling. Therapy can strengthen our ability to adapt and adjust to the changing circumstances of our lives, freeing us up to respond more flexibly to the world around us and to experience a more enlivened way of being. For trauma survivors who experience overwhelming waves of shame and fear, a lurking sense of unease, or confusing physical sensations, therapy can help calm the mind and the nervous system, allowing you to move from reliving the past to feeling grounded, present, and whole in mind and body.

I am licensed in California, Virginia, Idaho and Arizona. Do you long for connection, yet find relationships frustrating, challenging or even painful? Are you wondering why you feel numb when others seem alive? I assist clients in identifying patterns of relationship, trauma wounds, and thought processes that drive symptoms such as depression, anxiety, low self-esteem and destructive choices. If you are seeking to understand your suffering or dissatisfaction with life and relationships, I can provide help.

I am a Resident in Counseling with DMV Counseling Consulting & Coaching. I am passionate about providing a welcoming and safe environment to empower clients to explore trauma and life experiences. If you are experiencing feelings of depression and anxiety, struggling with past trauma, feeling challenged by romantic relationships or friendships, having a hard time processing race-related stress or concerns being a first-generation college student or simply feel that you have been unable to prioritize self-care, develop coping skills, or set boundaries consider participating in individual counseling to help you refocus your life.

The attempt to ignore or suppress emotions, the pressure to "get over it", is where feelings of anxiety, depression, anger and loneliness thrive. I believe in the intelligence of our internal emotional system, viewing symptoms not as a problem to be solved but a roadmap to follow towards feeling and functioning better. The process of therapy will connect you with the internal resources needed to navigate life from a calmer and more connected space.

I believe each of us has innate healing powers that can become overcome by trauma, leaving us feeling stuck, frozen, or in states of panic. EMDR is a research-based approach that can be combined with other methods to allow old "unprocessed" memories to become processed, thereby relieving you of unwanted negative thoughts and feelings. I have been honored to witness my clients experience profound transformations using this approach and was inspired to pursue advanced training and Certification in EMDR.

"I hope you are blessed with a heart like a wildflower.
