I’m Startasha Dillard, a Licensed Professional Counselor in Virginia and the District of Columbia, with 19 years of experience in the behavioral health field. I’ve worked with individuals facing both mental health and substance use disorders, helping adults navigate issues such as addiction, anxiety, stress, depression, trauma, anger, and relationship challenges. I strive to create a safe and non-judgmental space where you can share openly. My approach involves maintaining an open ear, flexibility, and the awareness needed to meet your unique needs.
I have completed my Doctor of Education in Counselor Education and Supervision, as well as my Master of Art in Community Counseling from Argosy University. My therapeutic methods include collaborative, supportive, person-centered, strength-based approaches, motivational interviewing, and solution-focused therapy.
My goal is to provide a supportive environment to help you navigate personal challenges and life transitions. By collaborating and increasing your self-understanding, we can work together to reach your goals and develop skills to prevent future distress.
