Teletherapy for Richmond, VA

Here’s the truth about life: it is uncomfortable. It is uncomfortable, tough, chaotic and, sometimes, we lose ourselves in it. Life is full of emotions that can be overwhelming and confusing, but once understood, can be transformative. If you want a therapist to help guide you towards your emotional, mental and physical goals - while also meeting you where you’re at without judgment - then I am likely a good fit for you. In my sessions, you’ll find a compassionate, safe, space where you will be gently challenged to discover, learn and grow. I often work with adults struggling with anxiety, trauma, grief, conflict and sexuality.

I offer both individual and couples counseling to adults of all ages, also teaching mindfulness meditation when desired. In addition to ameliorating symptoms, decreasing emotional pain, and helping to solve difficult problems, therapy and meditation can facilitate significant personal growth and increased wellness. My approach is broadly humanistic, meaning we seek together in a safe and secure environment, mutual understanding of you as a whole person, honing your internal "voice" and tapping into your existing strengths. Once we identify who you really are and what is most important to you, the path to bringing your life into alignment becomes clearer.

As a fellow truth seeker and meaning maker, I know firsthand how challenges in life can seem inescapable at times. I also personally understand the layered impact that a history of trauma has on our physical, emotional, and spiritual selves. I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker passionate about supporting women to learn to connect, cultivate, and honor their deepest sense of self, from the inside out, and what I like to think of as on a soul level. I want to support you to learn how to own all parts of yourself - mindfully, without judgment, and to honor your soul.

I work with clients from all walks of life who may be struggling with drug addiction, life transitions, self-confidence and other issues that affect your well-being. During our initial session, we will collaborate to create a plan designed to get your life back on track. My approach to helping others is very practical and casual.

Heather is a licensed clinical social worker who has been working in the mental health field since 2013.

I believe that people are resilient and that we all have the capacity to change our lives for the better if we are given opportunities to succeed. Many of us will suffer moments of defeat, moments of heartache, cultural moments of significance, and situations of joy that beg to be shared. As a therapist, I facilitate the success of others by creating a space for hope, empowerment, passion, and sorrows. I desire to help others to become their best selves.

Life’s challenges may cause us to react and respond in many different ways. Our current situation may or may not be in our immediate control, but when we look at our life, long-term, it will be the decisions that we make today that set the course of the overall outcome. Experiencing depression, anxiety, grief, confusion, and frustration (to name a few) may be a part of that journey, but you do not have to go down that road alone. It's important to have a safe and confidential space to work through challenges, become more resilient, and come out on the other side with confidence and skills to manage the situations you face.

Are you suffering from the end of a relationship? A job? Do you feel like you are in crisis, or no longer feel like yourself? Maybe you’re realizing that your life as it is in this moment is not working for you. Perhaps you feel alone, lost, or at a loss for what to do. Congratulations on taking the first step to finding relief and taking control. Life is too short to surrender to bad relationships, hold grudges, let trauma control us, or to be anxious or angry all the time. You may feel stuck, but there is hope.

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor with over 10 years of experience in the mental health field. I have a passion for working with survivors of trauma, and especially enjoy working with teenagers. I enjoy working with individuals and families in an effort to help each person reach their goals. I believe therapy is a way to explore our deepest thoughts, worries, and concerns in a safe environment and to improve overall quality of life.

As a psychotherapist I work with adults (including young adults 18+) who are experiencing difficulties with relationships, anxiety, depression, work/school challenges, parenting issues, family conflicts, grief and loss, life transitions, or other problems that may get in the way of a more balanced, satisfying life. With each client, I seek to create an empathic, judgment-free space where you can explore your feelings, gain insight, and improve coping skills that can help to enhance your life and relationships. My approach is interpersonal and relational--working within a psychodynamic framework toward goals we will set together.

I have been providing outpatient therapy to individuals, couples, and families since 2019; prior to that, I worked as an intensive in-home counselor and ABA therapist for ten years while I obtained my master's degree and completed my residency. As much as I enjoy seeing my clients in person, I have strengthened my ability to provide therapy virtually, applying various resources and maintaining a strong rapport through my non-judgmental and open-minded approach.

Are you finding it difficult to move past a trauma or a loss? Are you feeling overwhelmed, or stuck in the same negative thought cycles? Are your go-to coping strategies or communication style no longer serving you or your relationships? Do you want to embark on your own personal healing journey, but aren't sure where to begin? If so, you're not alone. I am here to offer an empathetic, non-judgmental space for you to process through whatever you're going through, and to work with you to chart a new path towards positive growth and change. Together, we can build up the skills and resources for a more joyful and fulfilling life.

Hello I am Laura Cahill! I am a passionate, energetic, and dedicated Licensed Clinical Social Worker with a love for the art of engagement in the work of therapy. Do you feel like your emotions have taken over and pushed you out of the driver's seat in life? In life, we often experience challenges, unexpected stress and transitions, trauma, hurt, grief and loss. Understandably, we may struggle with powerful emotions that seem to almost overtake us. Part of the human experience is wanting to feel in control of our inner and outer lives. It’s time to step back from the battle-not by retreating, but by re-framing.

Hello! My name is Newzaira, which translates to someone who sees's the good in others. Do you feel that at times you struggle with finding a deeper meaning in life? Or that little things can trigger a large emotional response? Is it hard to draw kindness to your experiences and others around you?

It is much harder for us to show kindness and compassion than it is to judge ourselves because we are not strong enough to push through everything with a smile. I hope to assist you with learning how to extend the kindness you give to others to yourself. I have experience with individuals across the lifespan experiencing significant emotional distress and with those struggling with transitioning between stages of life. I focus on ambiguous grief to assist anyone struggling to identify and establish the role they want to have in their own lives and create sustainable change.
