Female Therapists in Nokesville, VA

Now accepting new Aetna clients! Being a human can be really hard sometimes. Maybe it’s hard because there’s an area in our lives where we struggle, like in our careers or relationships. Perhaps, we’ve experienced some painful times that we haven’t fully healed from or find ourselves engaging in problematic behaviors. Whatever our struggles, I’ve found that psychotherapy can help reduce our suffering and help connect us to the joy of being alive.

I am a Resident in Counseling approved by the VA Board of Counseling, working towards becoming a Licensed Professional Counselor. I graduated with my Masters' degree in Clinical Mental Health and Addiction Counseling from The College of William & Mary. I have helped teens, college students, and adults experiencing anxiety, substance abuse, stress, low self-esteem, adjustment issues, academic/college struggles, relationship issues, identity development, and racial identity concerns. I have a passion for working with 1st and 2nd generation immigrants, BIPOC and South Asian population.

Kai Allen is a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker in Virginia who has been practicing since 2015. She I received her undergraduate degree in Psychology from Hampton University (an HBCU) and received her Master's degree in Social Work from Columbia University in New York City. Kai's approach to therapy is focused on empathy and a solutions-based mindset. She offers a warm and nonjudgmental space (with humor thrown in there) to help clients feel comfortable, heard, seen, and supported as they learn skills to help manage their mental health.

I believe that balance is essential to living life to the fullest. My experience includes helping individuals overcome trauma, anxiety, depression, life transitions, grief/loss, relationship issues, self-growth and stress management. In addition, myself and our providers at Bridge to Balance LLC are all trained in Christian counseling services which can be incorporated into your sessions when requested. I enjoy using creative approaches and skill-based learning with a variety of age groups including children, adolescents, adults, families, and couples.

Counseling is a supportive nonjudgmental approach to learning ways to cope with personal and professional stressors. My goal is to help you gain insight, while developing strategies to improve your overall satisfaction and quality of life. Together, we will identify and utilize your strengths to let go of unhealthy practices and respond better to stress.

“I don’t understand why you feel that way” “Here we go again!” “There are people who have it worse than you…” Sound familiar? It’s hard enough navigating the complexities of life as an individual. It’s even more difficult when you don’t feel seen, heard, or understood. My clients call me Alex. I am not a traditional clinician, and I do not strive to be. I aim to create a safe and collaborative atmosphere for my clients centered on inclusion and understanding. I pride myself on being relatable and honest. I tell it like it is. I empower. I listen. Are you ready to transform your life?

I provide a safe, non-judgmental environment where we focus on healing as we address issues with: Family, relationships, unresolved emotional issues, self-doubt and low self-esteem, guilt and shame, emotional intimacy and trust, anxiety and depression, parenting, substance use and addiction, processing traumatic or painful experiences that may have occurred during childhood, and fertility and pregnancy issues. I work with individuals, couples, and families to help them value, trust, and connect more deeply with themselves and their loved ones.

A positive well being is important to live a fulfilling life. I believe that therapy is every person’s journey in their own time and process. I offer a safe space and non-judgmental perspective to allow for self discovery, healing and growth—strength to meet life’s challenges. I use a person centered, resilience based and solution focused approaches. I will work with you to set manageable goals and become the best version of you.

I support individuals and couples by using the science of attachment to make sense of important relationships. My role is to help you to organize your life experiences and emotions so you can better understand your patterns/needs for connection and then find more satisfying ways to share and relate to loved ones. I work to help you make sense of your emotions, especially the vulnerabilities, misunderstandings, protections, and hurts that underpin your experience and often drive your behavior or responses. From there, I can support you to create more satisfying relationships, abundant self-work, clear boundaries, and emotional calm.

YOU can heal you! It’s not about what's wrong with you, it’s about what happened to you. Finding a safe space that encourages healing can be difficult to find and asking for help can be an intimidating prospect. I aim to help create a space where you can begin to reconnect with yourself, empowering all parts of you to choose the path YOU want. I want to help you approach emotions with curiosity and gentleness. Viewing behavior, thoughts, and feelings as techniques adapted to help us survive, we begin to move towards a place of acceptance. I want you to live a life free from emotional suffering, feeling stable in all areas of life.

Our early family of origin experiences lay the foundation for internal and relational patterns that continue to play out in later life. Many of our patterns include our best and most creative efforts to adapt to the tough stuff of life such as trauma, misattunement, and loss. Though these patterns are not set in stone, they are often automatic and hard to recognize, change, or understand. Together we can explore the ways in which our adaptations may have served you well in earlier times but are no longer proving to be helpful, effective, or authentic. I work with clients to create connection, healing, safety, and satisfaction.
