Therapists in Virginia

Hello, and thank you for taking the first step in your journey to a better you! I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and Licensed Substance Abuse Counselor. My career spans twenty years of working with Adults, Kiddos and Families through the multiple stressors life can present. I specialize in Depression, Anxiety, Substance Abuse, ADHD, Childrens Behavioral Issues, Illness Management and Trauma. I have an extensive history of working with Helping Professionals. I will bring to you my experience in current therapeutic models, and evidence-based modalities to help you find ways to cope at this time in your life.

I live in the Hampton Roads section of Virginia with my son and our dogs. I enjoy spending time at the beach or in the water somewhere, hiking, reading, and traveling. I have been a licensed clinical social worker for over 20 years and have worked in the field of mental health both, in-patient and out-patient, for over 25 years. I use a combination of Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)and Rational Emotive (RET) therapies to guide patients toward a greater understanding of themselves with the goal of emotional equilibrium or “balance.” The large military presence in Hampton Roads has allowed me to work with active-duty personnel and their families. I have successfully treated patients with depression, anxiety, Bipolar disorder, substance use disorders, and trauma histories.

I’m Dora, an LCSW based in Florida specializing in therapy for medical professionals, healthcare workers, and high-acuity staff experiencing burnout, compassion fatigue, anxiety, and work-related stress. With over 6 years of clinical experience and an MSW from the University of South Florida, I work with nurses, residents, first responders, and hospital staff who are exhausted from long shifts, high responsibility, and nonstop pressure. My approach is direct and practical, centered on boundaries, nervous system regulation, and coping strategies that actually fit a healthcare schedule. Therapy here is realistic, grounded, and human because life is messy, work is demanding, and sometimes it really do be like that. I offer early-morning therapy sessions for shift workers who need support before or after long hospital hours. If you work in healthcare and are tired of holding it together, therapy here is built for you.

I am a licensed therapist dedicated to helping adults navigate life’s challenges with clarity, confidence, and compassion. My goal is to provide a safe, supportive space where clients can explore their thoughts, emotions, and experiences without judgment. I believe everyone has the capacity for growth, healing, and fulfillment, and therapy can be a powerful step toward reaching that potential. I work with women and men who are managing stress, anxiety, perfectionism, or significant life transitions such as parenthood, career shifts, or relationship changes. Many of my clients are striving to balance multiple roles while also wanting to prioritize their own happiness and well-being. In our work together, I may use different modalities such psychodynamic, cognitive, humanistic, and group therapy to meet each client’s unique needs. We may explore underlying patterns, identify and shift unhelpful thought processes, and build on existing strengths. My role is to support clients in gaining insight, developing effective coping tools, and creating healthier ways of thinking, feeling, and relating. Clients often leave therapy with a deeper sense of self, improved resilience, and the confidence to make meaningful changes. My mission is to empower both women and men to move beyond what holds them back and build lives of balance, purpose, and fulfillment.

Hi, I'm Morgan. My schedule has officially reopened to new clients! I know how isolating and tough it can feel when life gets heavier than you can carry or when you're constantly second-guessing yourself. I'm here to help untangle the tangled, and to help you find real relief from the pressures you're feeling. My clients are often people who appear to have it "together" on the outside but feel anxious, disconnected, or stuck on the inside. You don't have to do this alone.

My name is Juan A. López and I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor. I received my graduate degree in Mental Health in 2005 from Nova Southeastern University in Fort Lauderdale, Florida. In 2010 I became a Licensed Mental Health Counselor and a Certified Qualified Supervisor for Mental Health Registered Interns in 20015. I have more than 10 years practicing psychotherapy and Behavior Analysis with children, adolescents and adults with a variety of diagnoses. I want you to know that the most difficult decision in life is asking for help and by taking the time to do some searching and reaching out, deserves a lot of self-admiration and self-credit of empowerment. I am a true believer that with a little help, anybody can accomplish great things and achieve most of their personal goals in life by implementing changes.

Greetings. Whatever led you to this site, this profile, in this moment. Welcome! Life can be complicated, overwhelming, and flat out hard. However, it CAN also be purposeful, rewarding, and fulfilling. Whatever you may have encountered on your journey this far and whatever your needs may be in this moment that led you here, I'm honored to provide a safe space for you to explore and work through it. Together, we can identify what's not working and what's needed to get you aligned with the life you envision. We'll use a whole self approach, addressing the needs of your mind, body and spirit. There's no time like the present.

As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with over a decade of experience in the mental health field, I’ve had the privilege of supporting clients across the lifespan, including children, teens, and adults. I’m certified in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), and Solution-Focused Therapy, and I integrate mindfulness as a core component of my therapeutic approach. I hold specialized certifications in treating anxiety, depression, and Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD), with a particular focus on working with veterans. I am a Certified Clinical Trauma Professional (CCPT). My goal is to create a safe, compassionate space that fosters trust and open communication. Together, we’ll develop a comprehensive, evidence-based treatment plan tailored to your unique needs and symptoms. Outside of my professional work, I enjoy reading and traveling with my husband.

Hello, I am a Clinical Psychologist with over ten years of experience helping individuals of various ages to overcome a wide range of diagnoses and mental health struggles including anxiety, depression as well as grief and trauma. I have done so in a number of settings including my own private practice, hospitals, schools and community health centers. I am grateful Growtherapy gives me the opportunity to be able to help individuals such as yourself.

Hi there! I am Stephen Kovacs a licensed clinical social worker with 5 years of experience helping adults who feel constantly “on edge” from anxiety and panic—always braced for the next shoe to drop, even when life looks fine from the outside. I’m licensed as an LISW-CP in South Carolina and an LCSW in North Carolina and Virginia and practice predominantly in the evenings via telehealth. My focus is on high-responsibility adults who are tired of living in survival mode: racing thoughts, worst‑case scenarios, physical symptoms like a racing heart or tight chest, and the burnout that comes from holding everything together for everyone else. Together, we’ll slow things down, make sense of what anxiety and panic are doing in your body and your life, and build concrete tools to manage spirals, reduce avoidance, and feel more in control day to day—not with fluffy advice, but with step‑by‑step, doable changes.

I am a Licensed Mental Health Therapist and Nationally Certified Counselor in Virginia, dedicated to providing culturally sensitive, trauma-informed care. Fluent in English, Arabic, and Tigrinya, I offer evidence-based therapy for individuals and couples from diverse backgrounds, addressing concerns such as trauma, depression, anxiety, anger management, and major life transitions. With advanced training in trauma-focused modalities, I support clients carrying deep emotional wounds by creating a safe, compassionate, and nonjudgmental space for healing. I am especially committed to working with those navigating grief, trauma, interpersonal violence, marital challenges, and the long-term impact of experiences like war, immigration, and incarceration, honoring the cultural identities that shape each client’s story.

I have over 15 years of experience providing therapeutic support to individuals navigating mental health and addiction-related challenges in both outpatient and inpatient settings. I work with children (ages 6 and up), adolescents, and adults, helping them manage life’s difficulties and emotional stressors with compassion and evidence-based care. My therapeutic approach integrates Motivational Enhancement Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and Brief Psychodynamic interventions to address symptoms related to depression, anxiety, trauma, and abuse. I am dedicated to fostering a safe and supportive space where clients can build insight, resilience, and emotional well-being. I hold a Master of Science in Mental Health Counseling from Walden University and a Master of Arts in International Studies from East Carolina University. As a bilingual therapist fluent in Spanish, I also offer therapy services to Spanish-speaking individuals.

I identify as a strength-based, person-centered therapist, and I believe that everyone has inherent assets that can be utilized towards individual goals and aspirations. I believe in engaging in inclusive, authentic professional relationships that respect, honor and enhance our unique motivations and perspectives. I am committed to creating a nurturing and inspiring environment, and providing the support and guidance that promotes health, healing and harmony.

I’m a therapist who works with teens (13–17) and adults (18+) who are feeling overwhelmed, stuck in their heads, or just tired of holding everything together on their own. A lot of the people I work with look like they’re doing “fine” on the outside, but inside they’re dealing with anxiety, stress, low mood, or feeling like they’re falling behind in school, work, relationships, or life in general. In therapy, I offer a space where you don’t have to filter yourself or pretend you’re okay. Together, we focus on making sense of what you’re feeling, finding practical ways to cope, and helping you feel more grounded and in control of your day-to-day life. The goal is simple: to help you feel more like yourself again, with tools that actually fit your real life.

I’m a client centered therapist who works best with individuals feeling overwhelmed by life’s transitions, new diagnoses, caregiving stress, anxiety, depression, or uncertainty in relationships or career. I offer a calm, supportive space where you can explore your experiences, reconnect with your strengths, and make meaningful changes. I believe therapy should be a collaborative partnership where you feel empowered to set goals, make changes, and grow. I tailor each session to your unique needs using evidence-based approaches like CBT and DBT. CBT helps us identify cognitive distortions and behavioral patterns that affect daily functioning, while DBT supports trauma related work through mindfulness, emotional regulation, and problem-solving skills.

I specialize in helping clients break out of codependency and being stuck in repetitive cycles of behavior by addressing self-sabotage, low self-esteem, and developing self-sufficiency. I focus on helping you understand and manage your physical responses to the world, which leads to managing overstimulation and emotions. You'll develop a sense of control and understanding of your experiences, finding freedom from impulsivity and overwhelm so you can feel calmer and make more intentional, healthy choices. I work with individual adults (18+) only. I do not see couples, minors, or families. Specialties: -Individuation & identity development -Codependency & relationship patterns -Life transitions & life stage challenges -Boundaries, self-worth & people-pleasing -Self-discovery & personal growth -Anxiety related to change & uncertainty

I'm a queer, trans, and neurodivergent Egyptian therapist experienced in working with LGBTQIA+ adults and adolescents. Although I take immense pride in these labels and in my communities, my therapeutic approach does not expect you to fit yourself neatly into any boxes. Instead, my role is to help you learn how to live in alignment with your specific values and priorities, particularly when it comes to figuring out the gray areas in life. It's tricky answering questions like, How do you reconnect with your heritage after experiencing it in hurtful ways? How do you heal from childhood trauma while preserving familial relationships that are still important to you? How do you build meaningful friendships and romantic relationships when self-love still feels like an enigma? These are the types of questions I particularly enjoy exploring with my clients. We will always take the time we need to figure out the concrete skills necessary for navigating daily life (e.g. emotional regulation, communication strategies, adaptive reframes for unhelpful thoughts, etc.), but the next level of growth lives in these nebulous existential questions. By compounding established skills with acceptance, psychological flexibility, and letting go of control where it is not adaptive, we can help you foster the kind of inner peace that adds both serenity and deeper meaning to daily life.

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor with over nine years of experience providing mental health services in admissions, crisis intervention, and outpatient therapy.

My approach is client-centered and strengths-based, and I believe that healing happens through a collaborative therapeutic relationship built on trust, compassion, and respect.

I am a licensed clinical social worker with over 15 years of experience providing therapy across Maryland, D.C., and Virginia. In my practice, I provide a calm, collaborative space where adults can navigate anxiety, trauma, depression, and high-stress life transitions. I believe people are inherently capable of growth, but having a grounded, non-judgmental partner to help untangle the heavy stuff makes all the difference.

Hi! I'm Jen Tucker, a licensed mental health counselor who is passionate about serving others. I'm a military veteran and a military spouse. I'm also a wife, mom, and grandmother. I've been through a lot in my life. Most of you have too. After all, you find yourself here looking for something. It is my firm belief that each and every one of us has tremendous potential. We all have unique talents and skills, honed and sharpened through our life experiences. These experiences, while crucial to shaping us, can also leave us hurt, confused, numb, or insecure. It is paramount that we stop along our journey to take stock, address our needs, heal, and refocus. Sometimes, we realize we may benefit from having extra support or guidance through these moments.

You keep seeing everyone posting about being their best self, and showing up for themselves. Meanwhile you are just trying to be. Whatever that be, may be for the day.

Then we take it a step further and look at building you up as a WHOLE. So your best self starts with where you are today and then we create a plan on where you want to be and who you want to become.

Welcome! I’m Jalisia, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with a passion for helping people navigate life’s most difficult moments. If you’ve asked yourself this question, “Why does life feel like it’s one thing after another?” You might be feeling overwhelmed, anxious, or drained.

My approach is person-centered, meaning you are in control of your healing journey. I offer a supportive, non-judgmental environment where you can safely explore your thoughts, emotions, and experiences. Together, we’ll work toward clarity, self-awareness, and emotional growth, empowering you to make the changes you desire.

Welcome! I came to this work a little differently than some. After spending 16 years in my first career, I found myself sitting across from a therapist for the first time. That experience changed my life. It gave me not only a new perspective on myself but also a deep desire to help others in the same way. So, I made a big leap: I went back to school to become a therapist myself. Since then, it’s been over two decades of meaningful, often humbling work. I spent 21 years in community-based mental health and substance abuse treatment, and I was fortunate to serve as a contracted therapy provider for the Department of Defense—work that gave me a profound respect for the strength and resilience of those who serve. I’ve also worked in private group practice and provided therapy in intensive outpatient programs in Canada, gaining experience with a wide range of individuals and challenges along the way. In November 2021, I opened my own private practice. It’s been an incredible privilege to support individuals and couples in this more personal setting, and I truly value the relationships I build with each client. If you’re considering therapy, I want you to know you're not alone—and change really is possible.

If your brain never fully shuts off, you overthink everything, or you feel mentally exhausted even when life looks “fine” from the outside, you’re in the right place. I work best with thoughtful, reflective young adults navigating anxiety, ADHD, burnout, relationship patterns, life transitions, and the pressure of trying to hold everything together. Many of my clients are young adults, college students, and young working professionals who are thoughtful, high-functioning, and often spend more time in their own heads than they’d like. My approach is conversational, direct, and insight-oriented. I don’t believe therapy is about me having all the answers. You are the expert on your own life. My role is to help you identify patterns, challenge assumptions, explore different perspectives, and uncover solutions that already fit who you are. Clients often appreciate my open-minded approach, curiosity, and ability to create a space where they can think out loud without judgment. Therapy with me is less about being told what to do and more about developing a deeper understanding of yourself and how you want to move through the world.

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker based in Virginia. I received my graduate training at Smith College School for Social Work in a clinically focused program. I believe that here is hope in the process of self-discovery. You are responsible for your process of change and the power of healing lies within each of us. I will be your skilled responsive partner. We will hold space for difficult and joyous moments. Let's journey together as you gain insight and build a life that works better for you. My therapeutic approach is attuned, responsive, person-centered and culturally aware. I strive to build a trusting empathic connection that fosters safety and authenticity. I have worked with persons presenting with a wide range of issues including trauma, anxiety, depression, interpersonal challenges, adjustment challenges, stress reactions, and male abuse survivors.

Hi, I'm Nick! I specialize in helping people navigate the complexities of relationships, divorce, and dating. Whether you're struggling to make a relationship work, facing the uncertainty of divorce, or trying to rebuild your confidence and find meaningful connections afterward, I'm here to help you move forward. My approach to therapy is direct, practical, and focused on meaningful change. I believe that understanding our struggles is important, but understanding alone isn't always enough. Real progress happens when we take what we've learned about ourselves and put it into action. Having experienced divorce and the challenges of dating myself, I understand how overwhelming these transitions can feel. I also know that it's possible to come out the other side with greater confidence, clarity, and a renewed sense of purpose. My goal is to help you do exactly that: understand what's holding you back, identify what you truly want, and develop the confidence and skills to build a life and relationships you're proud of.
