Therapists in Fort Lee, VA

Hello there! I am a Resident in Counseling, ordained minister, and certified life coach. Counseling is my calling and I specialize in facilitating an environment where healing of the wounded and the brokenhearted can occur. I look forward to walking side-by-side with my clients, as they walk the path to wholeness and restoration. With God’s help, we can overcome all struggles, mindsets, and obstacles!

CCG is group practice with locations in Chesterfield and Fredricksburg, Va. The primary mission of Chesterfield Counseling Group LLC is to help clients improve their lives through introspection, self examination, and heightened insight. We work with individuals of all walks of life. We pride ourselves on being down to earth, reasonable, sober, and sensible therapists. So many times we hear of people who have had negative experiences with past therapists, with that in mind we strive to be flexible and the focus is always on what is important to the individual client. The purpose of the first therapy session is to get to know you.

As a strengths-based and trauma-informed therapist, I am passionate about helping clients to repair deeply held wounds, especially relational wounds, which are often at the core of symptoms such as depression, anxiety, and addictive behaviors. Though I work with clients to help alleviate their troubling symptoms, my work is more fully anchored in the belief that the sensitive exploration of underlying injuries enables not just symptom-reduction but transformation and growth.

I work with couples and individuals in NYC and Richmond, VA to help them create more resilient, joyful relationships. I take a relational, optimistic, and trauma-informed stance. My work is to help people use their differences as a means of self-growth and self-transcendence. In doing this, a relationship moves from a place of rigidity into new possibilities. I welcome clients of all gender identities and expressions, as well as queer and straight couples in all relationship structures.

I am a Clinical Mental Health Counselor, treating individuals, couples, family & group therapy. I specialize in expressive therapy for children and adolescents. I am experienced in applying object-relational, CBT, acceptance and commitment, solution focused, and various therapeutic approaches to assist the client in reaching their goals. I have worked with a variety of mental health conditions including ADHD, Autism Spectrum, Post Traumatic Stress, depression, and more. I'm a graduate of Marymount University and a PhD candidate.

I primarily provide Telehealth services and limited face to face. I am a Licensed Clinical psychologist who completed clinical training at Duke University, Harvard Medical School's Victims of Violence Program and at the University of Massachusetts and UNC-Chapel Hill. I provide highly specialized treatments for traumatic stress (posttraumatic stress disorders), grief/loss, major depression, anxiety and relationship issues. I am trained in highly specialized, evidenced-based therapies that have scientific research supporting their efficacy. I have also worked extensively with veterans, students and physicians coping with burnout.

Journeying alongside clients during life struggles takes relationship building and rebuilding: relationship with self and others. My goal is helping clients work through strongholds to create a healthier person to have a healthier life and healthier relationships. Getting rid of old habits and wrong beliefs to usher in habits and truths that benefit a well lived life, is a complete life changing make-over that takes time, effort, sweat, and tears. Together, my clients and I work toward conquering mountains by uncovering these strongholds, allowing healing and empowerment to be achieved to live a life with authority.

If you are ready to learn to be joyful and find a new meaning in life, I am here to support you in therapy. Are you currently experiencing challenges in your marriage or family relationships? Are you looking forward to learn better ways of communicating, and how to get along with others? Are you ready to learn better coping skills, get your self-confidence back, and finally put yourself first? I am here to support you on your healing journey. My clinical experience is in individual, couples and family therapy. I specialize in family therapy, and especially families of medical doctors.

My goal is to help you reach your goals. My only desire is to help you feel better and more empowered. This is done with the main approach of providing a safe, non-judgmental, and validating space to explore your thoughts and emotions. Life is hard. Maybe it's hard all the time? Sometimes you can rise to the occasion, are successful, and can cope with life's difficulties. Other times, you become overwhelmed, frozen, angry, or depressed. Maybe you feel out of control of your life? Don't feel like your "normal self"? Have anxiety/depression? Whatever you are facing....you can overcome.

You are always enough regardless. Just show up as you are; it is okay and welcomed. This is a place of gentleness, empathy, compassion, and authenticity. We are here to both figuratively and literally walk alongside you in your therapy journey either as an individual, couple, or family. Here it is not about what is wrong with you; it is about what has happened to you OR about the negative cycle that you have been stuck in. We make sense of it together. Mutually, we make sense of the brokenness, the pain, the relational distress. All behavior has context and fractures in relationships can be healed.

Are you or your family struggling with stressful situations, relational difficulties, or feeling overwhelmed and unsure of how to move forward? These things can create significant stress in our lives and are sometimes difficult to move through without professional help. These things can keep us stuck. If you are looking to become unstuck and searching for a way to find freedom and regain or gain for the first time a sense of feeling OK, I can help you.

My commitment is to provide a safe place of trust and to walk alongside my clients through the struggles they are currently facing and teach them more adaptive ways to manage their lives.

Even strong, smart successful people know when to utilize the help of experts. Maybe you’re not in crisis, just a couple in a “good enough” relationship, but some of the time things get painfully off track. Or an individual whose life seems to be going pretty well on the outside – but privately, you’re hurting. Sometimes, your ways of “getting by” turn into habits that need to be amended. It’s not always clear how to go about initiating change and it helps to have an objective perspective. Counseling is a great way to improve your life. Together we will explore, identify, and rebuild habits and patterns to provide lasting change.

As we live, we write the stories of our lives. Sometimes the pen gets too heavy. Sometimes we don’t know where to start… or how to continue. And then there’s writer’s block, the faltering of the creative process somewhere in our hearts, our minds, our bodies producing dis-orders and dis-eases. Maybe you have lost a Loved one. Maybe you’re starting a new relationship. Maybe you want a new job. Maybe you just want change. I believe the remedy is in the beliefs/feelings, thoughts, and behaviors fueling the writer’s block or dis-ease, and I am a dis-ease specialist.
