Most of my clients describe me as being fully engaged, compassionate, intuitive, and challenging. I tend to be direct, authentic and kind. Over my 30 years of clinical practice, I have worked in a wide variety of settings, including mental health clinics, psychiatric hospital, corporate settings, taught graduate school and maintained a private practice. I have also provided critical incident debriefings and corporate trainings. During COVID, I closed my on-site office and now maintain a 100% remote private practice.

Hello. Thank you for stopping in. I have over twenty years of clinical practice working with adults. Much of my clinical experience has been working with our Military and Veterans. I appreciate working with individuals from diverse backgrounds. As my client I will engage you in broad conversation about how you are functioning and together we will develop strategies and skills to improve your day to day life. Although therapy is a place of 'work' therapy is also a place where you can expect to feel listen to and know your opinion matters. I frequently hear clients tell me they looked forward to their next session. So, in the tone of 'looking forward' I hope to meet you soon.

I'm Charonne Randall, LCSW-C, a trauma-informed psychotherapist, leadership coach, speaker, and founder of Cultivating Unstoppable You and Soar Beyond Coaching & Consulting. With more than 20 years of experience helping individuals, couples, and leaders navigate life's challenges, I am passionate about helping people move from survival to authenticity. At my core, I'm a down-to-earth, relatable person who believes healing happens through genuine connection, not perfection. Clients often describe me as warm, compassionate, insightful, and easy to talk to. I create a space where people feel safe enough to be honest about their struggles, uncover the patterns that keep them stuck, and discover new ways of living, loving, and leading. My work integrates evidence-based approaches, including Internal Family Systems (IFS), Relational Life Therapy (RLT), attachment-based therapy, and Christian counseling for those who desire faith integration. Whether I'm working with a couple seeking deeper connection, a leader battling burnout, or a woman who has spent years putting everyone else's needs before her own, my goal is to help people understand why they do what they do, heal the wounds beneath their protective patterns, and reconnect with who they truly are. My own journey through loss, life transitions, and personal reinvention has shaped my belief that our greatest challenges can become catalysts for growth and transformation. I am passionate about helping others remove the masks they've worn to survive, embrace their God-given worth, and cultivate lives marked by authenticity, purpose, peace, and meaningful connection.

I have provided counseling & therapy to children, adolescents, and adults in various settings including schools, group homes, residential treatment facilities, in-office, in-home and virtually. I earned my B.A. in Psychology from The College of Wooster in 2001. In 2003, after working for 2 years at a non-profit in Washington, DC, I joined the staff of HB Woodlawn Secondary Program, in Arlington, VA, as a counseling assistant and college counselor for students in 6th – 12th grade. In 2006, I moved to Philadelphia, PA, and earned my M.A. in Counseling Psychology & School Counseling from Rosemont College in 2009. During my two practicum experiences, I worked primarily with children and adolescents with a variety of behavioral and mental health issues. I was a guidance counselor at Jack M.

I was also a therapist at St. Francis St. Joseph Homes for Children, where I provided group, family and individual counseling for homeless or displaced boys who often needed support for trauma and grief. Since 2009, I have provided therapy in both a Residential Treatment Facility (RTF) in Portsmouth, VA, and as an independent counselor providing in-office and in-home services in San Antonio, TX and Gambrills, MD.

My name is Julianne Toy, and I am a licensed therapist with a strong foundation in both education and social work. I earned my Master’s in Education from Concordia University of Portland in 2015, followed by a Master’s in Social Work from Simmons University in 2018. Having training in both fields has been invaluable — it allows me to be creative and flexible in my approach, integrating educational strategies with therapeutic interventions to enhance understanding, growth, and lasting change. I have worked with individuals across the lifespan — from early childhood through older adulthood — and in a wide variety of settings, including homes, schools, hospitals, jails, courts, community agencies, and offices. I also have extensive experience providing teletherapy in several formats, ensuring accessible and personalized care for clients wherever they are. Before becoming a therapist, I worked as a case manager and volunteered for many years with at-risk youth and individuals with developmental disabilities. I also served as a crisis therapist, offering brief interventions and support to individuals at imminent risk. Over the course of my seven years as a therapist, I have provided both individual and group counseling, helping clients navigate a wide range of emotional, behavioral, and relational challenges. In recent years, my work has focused on private practice therapy with individuals and couples. Through this work, I have deepened my expertise and integrated several evidence-based therapeutic models to help clients improve their mental health, strengthen their relationships, and build more fulfilling lives. I currently work primarily with adolescents and adults, guiding them toward greater self-awareness, resilience, and well-being.

Listening to others' stories and supporting them in finding positive paths through challenges has always felt like a natural calling. Even as a child, friends would often reach out, and my mom would joke, "Is the doctor in?" Later on, this passion led to volunteering with kids in creative programs and working in hospice care, where deeper connections were formed. These experiences led to a rewarding role at an outpatient community clinic, where people from all walks of life could share their unique journeys and struggles. My work with clients have included helping those navigate stress, anxiety, mood disorders, and life transitions. The ideal clients are those who are open to exploring interventions and truly wish to understand themselves more deeply. Therapy is not about achieving perfection but rather finding new perspectives on who we are and how we engage with the world around us. Healing and personal growth rarely follow a straight path, and it's the patience and willingness to try that often make the difference in finding the right way forward.
