Therapists in Charlottesville, VA

Amanda B. Barnes
Counselor, MA, LPC
Charlottesville, VA 22903
I enjoy helping people find balance and discover/rediscover their inner strength while navigating through the challenging times and transitions in life. Life is full of surprises; while some are amazing, others can be devastating. Big life changes, such as moving away from home to go to college or for a job, having a baby, or getting divorced/breaking up, can leave you feeling overwhelmed and uncertain. It's normal to have feelings of anxiety and/or depression, especially during change & trying times, but it's also important to get the support you need to get through the difficult times & get back on track with the help of therapy.

You cannot sit on the couch without guilt, the to-do list, or the feeling you are doing something wrong. The mental load never actually stops. You may be a mom hoping to change the script on motherhood, a girl or teen whose anxiety is stealing her childhood, or a woman who just wants to feel like herself again. You want to feel light. To actually enjoy the moment you are in instead of racing through it to the next one. That is what we work toward.

Do you feel weighed down by anxiety, past hurts, or stress that makes it hard to move forward? Maybe you’ve been coping the best you can—juggling relationships, parenting, or life transitions—but inside, it still feels like too much, or simply not quite right. My first priority is creating a safe, connected space where you don’t have to carry it all alone. We’ll work at a pace that feels right for you, noticing what’s helping while gently exploring what’s getting in the way. Together, we’ll build awareness, strengthen your inner resources, and move toward a way of living that feels more grounded, easeful, and authentic.
