Therapists in Stuart, VA

Life is hard, no matter how you slice it. The birth process is traumatic for both mother and infant. Aging, sickness, and death are unavoidable parts of life. So are transitions, losses, and uncertainties. This is nobody's fault. It's not a punishment. This is "life on life's terms." None of us can manage the challenges of this life entirely on our own. We all need support, especially at times of loss and transition. If you, a family member, or loved one ages 14 and up are dealing with grief and loss, uncertainty, anxiety, depressive symptoms, processing trauma, or adapting to life changes, I'm here to help.

Deployment, divorce, abuse, depression, anxiety, and domestic violence can have a huge impact on you and your family. Are you or your child having difficulty managing feelings, adjusting to change, or coping with something traumatic? Are you struggling through this challenging time and feel exhausted doing it on your own? If so, you are in the right place! Don't continue to face these difficult experiences alone. Let me help by offering outlets for you or your child to express what is on your minds and learn how to deal with feelings in a healthy way.

At Anchoring Hope, we are here for you. Our calling is to come alongside you and be a calm presence to help you get unstuck. Ultimately, our goal is to help you develop coping skills as an individual, couple, or family so that you can be successful in life. We cover various issues on a variety of levels.

Everyone has a story. Our life experiences often become the stories that shape who we are, what we believe and how we behave. Whether it’s an experience from your past or a present situation I want to hear your story. I’d be honored to meet you where you are and walk with you to where you want to be. Along the way I’ll help you understand your struggle through a new lens and we will work together to identify and build a life worth living. I specialize in working with adolescents (ages 13-18) and adults dealing with issues of inter/intrapersonal conflict, family conflict, adjustment, anger, anxiety, and depression.

I am an experienced counselor who is truly invested in helping individuals and families make their lives better and find joy in life. Whether you have concerns for your child, teen, or for yourself, rest assured that life can feel better than it does for you right now. I am a compassionate listener who will help you develop new perspectives and skills to navigate the challenges affecting you and your family. I will encourage you, help you grow into your best self, and enhance your significant relationships. My approach is holistic, incorporating the spiritual values that are important to you.

I enjoy working with couples or those who want to improve their relationships in life. I have years of experience with couples seeking counseling because of conflict and crisis or those who would like to re-ignite the passion and intimacy in their relationship that they once had. I have worked with couples from diverse populations including African American, Latinos, Caucasian, Asian, and Middle-Eastern. I also work with individuals who are struggling with life changes such as divorce, employment changes, parenting, caring for family members, and death of a loved one.

At Light Counseling, our team of professionally trained and compassionate clinicians are here to help you overcome life’s challenges with evidence-based practices and a distinctly Christian approach. Our professionals specialize in helping with many of the following issues: ADD/ADHD, Adolescence Adjustments, Alcohol Abuse and Addictions, Anger Management, Anxiety, Attachment Disorders, Child Abuse/Victim Support, Childhood Behavioral Problems, Compulsions, Depression, Drug Abuse and Addiction, Family Issues, Grief and Loss, Infidelity, Marital Stress, Men’s Issues, Obsession, Panic Attacks, Parenting and Step-Parenting Concerns, Phobias, Pornography, Post Traumatic Stress Issues, and more.

I'm passionate about helping clients work through trauma/PTSD, anxiety & panic attacks, interpersonal relationship concerns, depression, loneliness, perfectionism, dysfunctional family systems, people-pleasing, communication issues, multicultural identity concerns, faith struggles, and ADHD. I strive to take the time to engage with each person’s unique personality and story and believe that healing isn’t one-size-fits-all. I take a holistic and client-centered approach to therapy - meaning focus is on you as a whole person and reviewing your goals and concerns.

Have you ever thought – what distinguishes healthy relationships that are able to thrive from unhealthy ones that tend to be full of stress? Is it self-will? Determination? As a couples and family therapist, I believe the one distinguishing factor is "attachment". Attachment is the ability to connect with others. Depending on our ability (or inability) to attach interpersonally, determines the overall satisfaction we experience within our intimate relationships. Also, having been a victim of racism, I opened this practice as a place that people of color can heal from the impact of both blatant and systemic oppression.

Are you and your spouse struggling to understand each other? Do you feel like you can’t get your teenage children to talk about their lives no matter what you do? Are you simply stuck in life and need someone to talk to? If you fall into any of these categories, then I can help you!

Life can be overwhelming at times and sometimes you are in need of extra support, guidance and a safe space along the way. My hope is to walk alongside you in your journey and help you reach the goals you want for yourself and your life and provide a safe space for healing and growth. I have spent years developing my skills and knowledge by working with adults, adolescents and children who have experienced trauma and family issues. I have experience in working with individuals who have struggled with couple issues, depression, anxiety, PTSD, sexual exploitation, grief and loss. I am currently seeing clients aged 14+.

I coach women and adolescent girls 16+ who struggle with people pleasing, fixer syndrome, and perfectionism to build emotional wellness skills to tackle unhealthy relationships that trigger anxiety and depression. I teach research based skills to help you overcome cycles of toxic relationships, family drama, codependency, rescue syndrome, self-doubt, and burn out. I understand the stress of feeling consumed by life and overbearing relationships. I can relate to life feeling too much, relationships feeling burdensome and overwhelmingly exhausting, wanting to leave everything, everyone behind and disappear. I'm here to support you.

My career background before pursuing a Master of Arts in counseling was as an RN and then as executive director of a nonprofit women's ministry focused on eating disorders and other co-existing conditions. When assessing a client I try to take in the whole person: body, mind, and spirit, considering how each of these components is impacting the others. If a client chooses, I am willing to incorporate Christian faith-based counseling, in addition to a mix of therapeutic approaches. I also provide couples and family counseling. I have been married for 37 years and we have three grown children, 4 grandchildren, and 2 doodle-pups.
