Welcome to outpatient therapy. My name is Dr. Krystal Symeonides, Ph.D. and I am a Licensed Professional Counselor and Licensed Substance Abuse Treatment Practitioner working in Virginia. I have been practicing in the mental health field for 29 years and I enjoy helping clients understand oneself and others, while providing genuine support to assist in growth and change. Therapy is food for the soul.

What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?

During your first session, we will assess the reasons you are seeking treatment and identify the goals you want to work on.

Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.

The greatest strength that I have as a therapist is developing a plan for clients that will help them understand why they are in treatment and what they need to work on.

My treatment methods

Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)

I have utilized Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) over 29 years to assist clients with understanding how their thoughts can lead to feelings. I’ve used this treatment method to explain to clients how their irrational thoughts can lead to negative feelings.

Motivational Interviewing

I have worked with individuals struggling with addiction and sex offenses. By using motivational interviewing, I was able to elicit and explore a client’s own reasons for change while demonstrating compassion and acceptance.

Solution Focused Brief Treatment

As an outpatient therapist, I utilized Solution Focused Brief Treatment by using positive psychology to help clients develop solutions rather than focusing on problems.
