Therapists in Yorktown, VA

Hello, as a therapist, I have had the opportunity to engage with individuals from all types of backgrounds, and life challenges. I have worked in the “helping” field for over 20 years, from Adolescent Residential support, Foster Care, Career Counseling with Job Corps and in Community Based Counseling service (in the homes and school systems). I am humbled by the gift I have been given to support you on your journey to a life of peace, balanced with excitement, love and understanding. My function in your life is simply to turn on the light so that you can see your way clear as you navigate into the life you are destined to live.

I am so glad you have taken the time to seek out a therapist to connect with. Your relationship with your therapist is the most important factor. I have worked with individuals and couples for 32 years and would absolutely love the honor of connecting with you. I have worked with couples struggling with infidelity, blending families, and many other issues. Please call me if you'd like to connect and see if we would be a good match to help you move ahead into the next chapters of your life! I am also to meet with you through telehealth (video) or in person.

Are you feeling disconnected from yourself, your relationships, or your life? Do you find yourself repeating the same patterns or feeling stuck? I can help you reconnect with your body-mind. I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with 7 years clinical experience in the mental health field. I provide individual, family, marriage, and couples therapy. My treatment approaches include: a Psychobiological Approach to Couples Therapy (PACT), the Gottman Method for couple’s therapy, neuropsychobiological approaches that promote brain regulation, body-mind interventions such as Meditation, Mindfulness, and Trauma Informed Yoga.

It's not the conversation around you that distracts you, it's the conversation within you that distracts you! I am a Clinical Therapist that would love to connect with you to start the conversation to assist you as you navigate your life journey. I focus on creating a safe and supportive therapeutic environment where I can help clients identify opportunities for change and growth, cope with difficult emotions and experiences. It is my passion to assist you in solving problems in constructive ways that brings the opportunity to heal emotional wounds.

I have counseling experience with adults, children, and couples in areas to include Individual and Group Counseling Couples Counseling, Child Behavior and Development, Grief and Loss, Interpersonal Relationships, Life Coaching, Crisis Intervention, Cognitive Behavior Therapy, Emotional Behavior Therapy, and using the Narrative Approach to aid others in achieving a greater well-being for themselves.

Therapy is a process and just starting is an accomplishment. It can be difficult because you may address topics that you have avoided. The Carter Psychotherapy Group provides a place for you to fully engage in treatment so that you leave every session needing therapy less and less. My goal is to create a safe space for individuals and families to access mental health services without barriers to treatment

We are a private practice of licensed clinical staff serving several states throughout the east coast, via traditional and non-traditional mental health services and caregiver support. We support our local domestic courts and partner with local community agencies, small businesses, and other mental health clinicians.

I received my M.A. in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from the Chicago School of Professional Psychology and my B.A. in Psychology from Hampton University with a minor in Children and Family studies. I am a 200 hour Registered Yoga Teacher and my approach is person-centered and strength based. I provide a holistic approach to the counseling journey through a combination of mindfulness and primarily CBT. Depending on the client - this is not a one size fits all deal - that's what makes life beautiful. We are all different and unique in our own ways. This counseling journey will be just that: beautiful, different, and unique.

I have been assisting people to overcome depression, anxiety and to repair relationships seemingly in free-fall for more than 40 years. Because there is no shortcut to peace and well-being, treatment is open-ended, tailored to each person's unique needs. Teletherapy by computer, tablet, and smartphone is available for individual, couple, and group treatment sessions. With COVID-19, Shelter-in-Place puts even more stress on relationships and employment. Alcohol, drug use, and porn addiction can make relationships even harder. I have much experience assisting addicts to achieve a more peaceful and productive life for self and family.

Hi and welcome, let me share a bit of my philosophy with you… After several different career choices, true to the vocational model, at thirty-something I discovered the field of psychotherapy. I began my career in accounting, moving into the medical field, then the business world and found my true passion in the study of human behavior. I may be one of a few therapists with physics and organic chemistry as electives ! Taking time for YOU is a quintessential part of experiencing happiness. Knowing who you are and loving it, is a big step in the right direction towards joyful living.

This is a time of great stress and challenge for everyone. You have reached out to begin rebuilding a life a balance and resilience. I am happy to work with you on your journey. In my 35 years of service in working with adults I have come to understand that “one size does not fit all”. You and I will work together to define your own personal goals and develop a path of healing and growth to achieve what is right for your life. I work entirely on-line so that you can access these services in the comfort and privacy of your own home. My hours are from 11:00-3:00 Tues. & Wed. If you are ready to start your journey, please contact me.
