Suicidal Ideation Therapists in Winchester, VA

I enjoy helping individuals in need. I have an eclectic approach but rely heavily on mindfulness and solution focused therapy. I am very straight forward in my approach, and focus on individuals, adolescents, adults couples. I specialize in teenagers and young adults.

As a fellow truth seeker and meaning maker, I know firsthand how challenges in life can seem inescapable at times. I also personally understand the layered impact that a history of trauma has on our physical, emotional, and spiritual selves. I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker passionate about supporting women to learn to connect, cultivate, and honor their deepest sense of self, from the inside out, and what I like to think of as on a soul level. I want to support you to learn how to own all parts of yourself - mindfully, without judgment, and to honor your soul.

My contact with clients starts by providing a safe, secure environment in which the client can slowly open themselves to the therapeutic process. I have special training in attachment issues and injuries but also blend cognitive behavioral, systems therapy, solution focused and neuroscience modalities into treatment as needed.

I always gravitated to jobs that entailed helping people: Teacher; Red Cross; Covenant House. I had also pursued seminary studies and was briefly on track to becoming a clergyman. Entry into grad school to study Counseling seemed the next natural step in my career path. But there was a more profound reason I became a Professional Helper, and that is my own lifelong struggles with anxiety and depression.

We believe in starting where the client is, in order to help them explore their potential for growth. We provide a gentle push to help them find healing, hope, and happiness. We help those from a young age to those in their retirement have happier, healthier lives.

The journey of finding a therapist can be difficult and frustrating at times. You may ask yourself, "do I really need to talk with someone?" Coming to the realization that you may need to talk to some one is challenging . Taking that first step in searching, for someone, to talk to is moving in the direction, of finding peace, hope and healing.

Does self-doubt rob you of feeling a sense of contentment and stability you desire? Do feelings of shame obstruct your ability to feel worthy of a loving relationship with yourself and others? Are self-esteem and confidence drowned out by nagging thoughts of: "I'm not good enough", "I'm a failure", "I'm not worthy of love"? Life transitions and unexpected events can resurface embedded and unresolved traumas that stick with us and impact our emotional health later in life. Consequently you may find yourself overwhelmed by feelings of stress, anxiety and disconnection, unable to find a sense of peace and balance.

I have always said that treatment is not one-size-fits-all and must be tailored for the person and their needs. It is also essential to build genuine trust and a safe space for a client aiming to better their sense of wellbeing. As a resident in counseling, my focus is to allow room for vulnerability, genuineness, and empathy. While life comes with tremendous rewards, it also has challenges that can feel too much to bear. Together we can process the curveballs, build coping skills, heal past traumas, and build healthier patterns to take on any obstacle. I am a resident in counseling in the Commonwealth of Virginia.

Hello, my name is Lachica-Muschett. I am a Licensed Clinical Psychologist with over 7 years of clinical experience working with diverse populations, including veterans, emerging adults, LGBTQ+, and individuals who suffer from Anxiety, Depression, Trauma, PTSD, Stress, and Military issues. I am primarily a third-wave Cognitive Behavioral psychologist, and I am most passionate about interventions from MCBT, ACT, and DBT. I believe in the philosophy of "Pay attention to what the person is saying and not saying, especially if what they are not saying has something to do with the environment in which they have to function."

Life is an extraordinary thing but it can also be full of challenges, especially when situations occur that can seem out of our control. Sometimes life stressors can seem so overwhelming that it can be hard to imagine that light at the end of the tunnel. Sometimes it can feel like we are just surviving instead of thriving. My goal is to help you reverse that and really begin thriving in the life you deserve. I utilize a strengths-based, client-centered, collaborative, trauma-informed, and holistic approach that considers the person’s mind, body, spirit and worldview.

I am compassionate and nonjudgmental and will offer the support you need to overcome life's difficulties. We are all different in the way we experience and manage life. I have always been interested in the wellness of others and have been blessed to watch many people find recovery. If you are feeling discouraged, overwhelmed, worried or sad, then together we can discover or revisit your healthy options to navigate those feelings. You have taken a step in the right direction to navigate those feelings and to reach out for help. Connection to others allows us to find peace and improved quality of life.

I believe you are the expert on you! I believe that therapy works best when client and therapist work together to take a team approach to your care; I can help give you the tools, but I need you to tell me what is or is not working for you so that we can tailor your treatment to you as an individual. Every human is unique, so I believe your treatment should be uniquely based on your needs. To achieve this, we will work together to determine what your needs are, what your goals for treatment should be, and what styles will work best for you.
