Spirituality Therapists in Fredericksburg, VA

Reclaim Your Story. Let's take this liberating journey together. So often we allow the wants, needs, and expectations of other to dictate the path that we take in life, only to find out that what we really want is to be authentic. Your hopes and dreams are valid, they are truly yours. You can start that new business, change careers, walk away from an unhealthy abusive situation, walk in the gifts that you have to share with the world. Staying connect to those significant family and friends in this process of becoming comfortable being your authentic self can be challenging. But it is possible. It's time. You deserve it.

I have also helped many people who have experienced trauma and emotional abuse. I consider myself a very spiritual person and like to incorporate spiritual practices into my work!

Hi! I am Brittani Sanders and I’m so excited you’ve decided to stop by! First and foremost, I want to applaud you for taking the first step toward your healing and restoration.

Oftentimes, whether through unhealthy behavioral cycles, random obstacles, or other various stressors, we end up ready to throw in the proverbial towel on life. My passion is the mental and spiritual health of the church and God’s leaders. I firmly believe that our spiritual health is directly impacted by our emotional health and the way we lead and live our lives

I am the owner and sole practitioner of The Hope Connection. I'm a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) and a Certified Clinical Trauma Professional (CCTP).

I believe the problems that direct clients into counseling are emotional, physical, and spiritual. Therefore, the whole person must be addressed and treated as a unique and complex individual. As a Christian therapist I help clients get to the root causes of their distress and assist them to find answers by using solution focused therapy. While some long-term therapy is a necessity I take pride in helping people set goals and objectives to find answers to their issues and struggles. Discover the hidden strengths in your weakness and find an inner peace that brings stability amidst your storm.

Perhaps you, like many people, struggle with unhealthy relationships and low personal growth. If you are not working on becoming the person that you desire to be, you feel stuck and need someone to help get you back on track.

If you do, then it is time for you to seek the help of a professional. I am here to help you.

Living means encountering challenges along the way. All of us have a drive toward living full, happy, successful lives, and sometimes we can get overwhelmed by events and find ourselves in over our head. When life becomes too much to handle on our own, a compassionate, insightful and supportive relationship is invaluable to assist us in getting back on our feet or back on track. Whether you feel worn down over time by life, or beat down by major events, I create a safe and positive space for examining your strengths and values to move forward into a brighter future.

I believe having healthy and whole relationships is the key to well-being and happiness. As a therapist, I work with individuals, couples, and families in developing effective communication and in building meaningful connection. My approach is collaborative, practical, yet integrative, striving to help individuals utilize their strengths and understand their growing edges.

As women we play so many roles and often have little time to care for our personal needs. This can become a way of being which often leads to feeling unfulfilled, overwhelmed, drained, and stressed. When we create a healthy balance that includes our needs as priority, we experience more energy, more love, more joy, and a clearer sense of purpose. As your therapist, I will explore your concerns, assist you in identifying your personal strengths, and help you to develop effective coping strategies that will enhance your daily life.
