Spirituality Therapists in Roanoke, VA

If you're reading this, I imagine you're feeling pretty stuck: stuck in negative emotions that feel inescapable, stuck in thoughts that are toxic and shaming, stuck in a cycle of behaviors that don't serve you. In moments like this, there is no shame in reaching out for help! Hi, I'm Geoffrey, and I'm a Resident Counselor who specializes in working with clients with eating disorders, depression and anxiety, trauma, and LGBTQIA+ needs.

Does it feel like you're spinning your wheels in talk therapy? Are you looking for a way to go deeper? Sometimes we don't always have the words to fully express complex thoughts, feelings, or experiences. Music therapy techniques can offer a multi-sensory medium for finding ways to more authentically exist, express, and find true healing. Through an eclectic blend of therapeutic techniques proven to be effective, individual goals may focus on:

I enjoy working with adolescents and adults to address the following issues: depression, anxiety, pre-marital & marriage issues; race-related issues/social justice; weight loss; academic issues; life planning & decision making; low-self esteem, and parent-child issues. Many of my clients are couples, undergraduate & professional students, K-12 educators, college/university faculty & staff, health care professionals, clergy/spiritual leaders, first responders and law enforcement officers.

Taking new clients for neurofeedback only. If you are interested in pursuing EMDR in 2025, I am happy to put you on my waiting list. If you are wanting more immediate or long term therapy, I can refer you to another practitioner in my practice. Have you had a traumatic incident(s) and still experiencing the symptoms? Are loss of sleep, unexplainable emotions, low self esteem, poor concentration or panic keeping you from enjoying your life? You may be working with a therapist and feel that your brain will just not allow you to implement the strategies. Trauma wires the brain, neurofeedback and EMDR rewire it.

Finding value and meaning whether you are in the valley or at the top of the mountain using a blend of traditional evidenced based interventions with an existential feel incorporating different philosophies and schools of thought.

I am passionate about helping clients engage their stories in a way that leads to a better understanding of who they are. As a Christian Counselor, I seek to create a compassionate space for you to express your fears, hurts or stressors while combating the shame that often compels us to hide. My role is to guide, encourage, and challenge you as you move towards growth. I also believe not all counseling is about change. Sometimes, circumstances outside of your control lead to a hard season of life. In these instances, I seek to empathize, listen and identify the truths and values that help us feel a sense of calm in a chaotic world.

I am a Clinical Psychologist in the Christiansburg area. I use a variety of therapies to help each individual with their specific needs. My approach to therapy is warm, empathic, and caring. Whether there is pain from which you are seeking relief, or ways you just feel stuck, my job is to empower and equip you to grow into more of the person you want to be – and to respect and care for the person you already have become! I also offer objective testing for ADHD and other forms of psychological assessment.

Grab your comfiest clothes, maybe a cup of coffee. Join me in my cozy office with floor to ceiling plants, and 2 turtles, or outdoors, at your favorite spot. We'll laugh, talk and do a little therapy too. My name is Jenny and I have been a LCSW for 18 years, and practicing for 23. Your story is as individualized as your fingerprint, and I believe your therapy should be too. Take your time getting to know me and my approaches on 4RC's FB page, Instagram page (4riversjenny), or fourriverscounseling.org.

Religious trauma… if you know what it means to believe that your heart is deceitful, your mind fallen, your emotions dangerous, and your body sinful because of the feedback from your faith system then you can relate to the backdrop behind what religious trauma survivors are dismantling through their healing journey. Detangling dehumanizing beliefs from our psyche is hard work. If you have learned to not truly trust yourself, you probably know what it feels like to not give yourself permission to identify the truth found in your thoughts, feelings, and physical responses. The work I do is help you identify and navigate the tension.

Greetings, I am glad you chose to read my profile. Hopefully from this point on, we can work towards a plan of renewal and recovery. My purpose is to assist clients in achieving holistic wellness through the use of Christian Counseling, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Solution-Focused Therapy and Person-Centered Therapy. These methods, coupled with self-will and determination, can be a valuable asset for developing an effective treatment plan.

I know how important it is to have someone who will listen. I enjoy hearing others life experience, walking alongside them in vulnerable moments, and having authentic moments of honesty, openness, and healing. The goal of counseling is not knowing everything at the start (or even the finish!) but being willing to try, willing to learn, and willing to share. I enjoy helping others gain understanding about themselves and their world, make progress towards their life goals, and feel more stable in their actions and direction. I look forward to helping you with skills and knowledge that you will act on between sessions and beyond.

Whatever the issue or stress in your life right now, I want you to know that you don't have to go it alone. You are taking the right step in reaching out for help!

Feeling stuck is a part of life, but that doesn’t mean you have to figure it out by yourself. There are many pieces that play a part in being in a tough place that make each situation different. I am experienced in working with many issues including depression, relationship issues, anxiety, and traumatic stress. I am passionate about women’s issues, cultural diversity, and am LGBTQ+ affirmative. Life gets really difficult sometimes - you are stronger and more resilient than you think.

I desire to create an atmosphere that is comfortable and accepting and develop with my clients a collaborative therapeutic relationship. My primary goal is to come alongside the client and assist in managing issues that can cause one to feel stuck, overwhelmed or paralyzed while helping clients to move toward a more effective and rewarding life. I primarily use cognitive-behavioral, brief and solution focused therapies and techniques among other tools to develop an integrative approach that is tailored to each client individually. I also do work with engaged, dating and married couples using as customized couples assessment.

I believe counseling is a partnership between myself and the individuals I work with. I go into each session with hope and confidence that those seeking change will achieve it. I enjoy working with people of many ages and backgrounds and look forward to addressing issues related to behavioral disorders, anxiety/depression, stress, relationships, grief/loss, life transitions, and many more. My goal is to walk beside individuals as they work through life challenges.

To put it bluntly, I am here for you. I want to hear about what is hurting you and stopping you from moving forward in a happy and positive way in your life. I want your input on what the problem is and what plan will work with you personally. We will gather all our information and decide on a plan of action to get you back to where you want to be as quickly as possible and develop a way to keep you there.

“Taking refuge” is a phrase in Buddhism that invites a world-weary self to find relief. From the confusion of life’s dramas and the pull to get swept up in them. Taking refuge requires building trustworthiness through a softening that happens over time in relationship. That is one reason psychotherapy is effective: The trustworthiness built by therapist and client allows for a depth of self to be known and expressed. Such encounters in turn build trustworthiness within oneself, for as our capacities enlarge, we enlarge. In finding solace within, we learn to live less fearfully, participate in relationship with authority and ease.

I love to work with children, adolescents and adults. I am passionate and enjoy working with perinatal individuals and anyone dealing with postpartum anxiety or depression. My hope is to help individuals discover their values in order to help them live a value driven life rather than one focused centrally on acheiving goals.
