Teletherapy for Richmond, VA

Our clients require training and education on ways to improving coping mechanisms when living with a mental health illness/diagnosis. We train, monitor, and educate clients on skills development for living independently. We teach clients about their psychotropic medication and ensure medication management. We connect and educate clients to and about community resources. We also demonstrate, train, and model self-advocacy skills to our clients. Our clients may have treatment history that includes substance abuse or doctor's recommendation.

People come to therapy with strengths and skills that have helped them to survive up until meeting me, and I find that it is often better to work with existing tools rather than tearing down entire foundations. As a clinician, I can help you to decide what stays, what goes, what skills should be emphasized, and what skills should be learned. I have supported others to solve relationship problems, establish effective coping systems, with adjusting to difficult life experiences and spaces. We are both experts in the room and I will use my understandings of integrative practices to help build the dream that you imagine for yourself.

Do you want to experience greater freedom from anxiety, depression, or negative thoughts? Are you feeling frustrated, misunderstood, or unappreciated in your close relationships? Have you tried therapy before but did not get the results you were hoping for? With understanding and compassion for yourself, you can break free of negative thoughts, self-limiting beliefs, and harmful habits. You can learn communication methods to bring you closer to others, without sacrificing yourself. Together we will discover a deeper source of strength that is uniquely yours. I can help you tap this well to find joy, contentment, and harmonious relationships.

Are you struggling with your overall mental wellbeing? Do you feel overwhelmed, lost, stressed or having difficulties coping with your symptoms of depression, anxiety and/or trauma related symptoms? Have you tried therapy in the past and not seen the progress you were expecting? If you are in need of a supportive, knowledgeable, and understanding therapist to help you make the progress you would like to make, please let me know how I can help! I am a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in the state of VA. Book an appointment at jmariespsychotherapy.clientsecure.me/

Wellness has been defined as a way of life oriented toward optimal health and well-being in which body, mind, and spirit are integrated to live more fully within the human and natural community. Ideally, it is the optimum state of health and well-being that each individual is capable of achieving. When working together in counseling, I perceive one’s thoughts are related to their feelings and reactions to events, not the events themselves. Counseling sessions are individualized to meet the unique needs of each client.

As an agency we have been supporting people via online sessions, with everything that falls “outside the box”. If you are encountering relationship problems, you may have found that it is easier to procrastinate rather than to seek the relationship advice and tools that you need. You may have even been waiting to seek consulting or coaching services for years. Meanwhile your relationship difficulties have only been getting worse. Our consulting services are designed to help you communicate better and make sustainable changes that will benefit you and your family throughout your lives to come back to loving one another.
