Anxiety Therapists in Norfolk, VA

Our experiences in life - relationships, career, family and community - bring us joy and fulfillment, but also challenges, stress, and loss, even trauma, anxiety , illness and depression. As young adults and adults, when these critical life events are left unaddressed, symptoms and stresses we carry can contribute to illness, work problems, psychological issues, unhealthy behaviors, isolation and low self worth. Clients with these concerns, as well as professional challenges, family needs, divorce and remarriage, and relationship problems, can find a therapeutic home to heal and to rediscover inner resources.

If you are discouraged by your current situation, have lost sight of who you are and what makes you special, or if you feel stuck in your interpersonal relationships, it would be my privilege to come alongside you and help foster hope. I love to work with individuals and couples who come from both military and civilian backgrounds, those who seek faith integration in therapy, and those who want to be the best version of themselves that they can be.

(*Emails Preferred*) Are you struggling to feel like yourself and looking for a safe space to identify your needs, talk through your concerns, and find ways to cope with your current stressors? Perhaps you’ve found yourself navigating a new life transition, struggling with a significant relationship, or coping with multiple stressors and are looking for a way to move forward with your life. Or perhaps you feel overwhelmed, burnt out, and don't even know where to begin at all. Counseling is a supportive and confidential place for you to process through your experiences and identify your unique goals for healing, growth, and change.

Throughout this journey called life, there are several obstacles, challenges, stressors, and disappointments you will face that contribute to feeling down and out. I am a firm believer in the saying “if nothing changes, nothing changes.” I am thrilled you have decided to take the initial step to produce a change in your life!!

* ACCEPTING CLIENTS* It is an honor that you are choosing me as part of your journey to peace and well-being! I’m sure you are wondering to yourself: Who are you and can you help me? Absolutely, I can! I have worked for the past 5+ years with a variety of clients with addictions, attachment problems, and interpersonal concerns.

Are you struggling with either being or connecting with the best version of yourself? I understand on a personal and professional level. My practice is tailored to helping women and mothers heal from their past, find a work-life balance, transition into motherhood, teen mother challenges, and managing "mommy guilt".

Consider a new beginning within a wellness-based setting.

Life has more than enough obstacles, challenges and events that leave us with wounds. And, while we have family and friends that try to be of help, often we don't get the best, unbiased advice. Counselors are the friendly ear, the non-judgmental person, with a broad perspective to help you get through those times when life gets difficult. Transitions such as marriage or divorce, or the loss of family or friends, as well as accidents, or the activities of being a policeman, fireman or soldier, brings overwhelming life events that call for a trained professional to guide and help bring resolve to those things.

I enjoy working with individuals of all ages (from children and adolescents, teenagers, adults, and the elderly), as well as couples, families, and groups on diverse issues (e.g., life changes and day-to-day experiences, stress, depression, anxiety , trauma, psychosis, psychosomatic, gender issues, LGTBQ+ issues, substance abuse, eating disorders, personality, disruptive behaviors, and so much more). I have a certification in working with clients who have experienced trauma and have extensive crisis training.

People contact the Center For Mind Body Healing (CMBH) asking for help. "Can you provide help with...?" Then they state what it is they need help. They state something PHYSICAL like sleep, pain, something in their body. They state something EMOTIONAL- anxiety , stress, fear, sadness. They state something INTELLECTUAL-focus, pass an exam, think straight. And they often state something SPIRITUAL-belief in something. People contact CMBH; want HELP; want CHANGE. They state "struggling their struggles" has happened too long.
