Aetna - Medicare Therapists in Virginia

Hi ! I’m a Licensed Professional Counselor and Nationally Certified Counselor based in Virginia. I received my Masters from Northwestern University and have been practicing for 7 years. I help people who have been stuck and struggling with various challenges from anxiety, trauma and abuse, stress, work and life issues, relationship issues, depression and more to overcome and truly be set free.

My work focuses on targeting ineffective behaviors, habits, and beliefs with a trauma-informed, collaborative approach to treatment. My theoretical foundation is rooted in Rational Emotive Behavior Therapy, and I incorporate an integrative approach utilizing cognitive, behavioral, imaginative, and emotive techniques to cultivate change specific to your needs. Let us face it, sometimes, despite our best efforts, we may find ourselves struggling to cope. You may need support and a safe place to be share, be valued, and encouraged. You may even be seeking to gather a new perspective, clarity, or a new way of dealing with adversity. Whether it is personal or professional goals, loss, relationships, or trying to find your sense of purpose and value at this time in your life, I can help! Together, we can navigate these feelings and forge a path forward.

Hi! I'm Jasmine and I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker that has been practicing therapy for 6 years. I obtained a Bachelors in Psychology in 2010 at Eastern Michigan University and completed my Master of Social Work at Johnson C. Smith University, graduating in 2017. Do you have a hard time with change and life transitions? Do you feel overstimulated and unable to ground yourself? Do you feel isolated or "different" from everybody else? Are you exploring your identity, sexuality, or self-image? Are you seeking a therapist who can provide an atmosphere where you feel comfortable enough to vent, find relief, and explore your story– however unconventional it may be? Do you crave a space where you can find yourself or be encouraged to be the expert on your life while being held accountable for your goals? If you want to live a life that aligns with your values or true identity while communicating and reinforcing your boundaries, I can help you get there. Together, using strength-based and person-centered therapy with a psychodynamic touch (and a healthy dose of humor), we can partner and begin your journey to building the confidence to be who you are and enhancing your strengths. Finally, feel self-assured in your value and speak up for what you want in your life, relationships, and career. If you’re ready to build a happy, thriving life while being true to yourself, let’s chat today. I come from a military family that has been located throughout the United States, allowing me the opportunity to meet people from varying cultures and backgrounds. This has contributed to my ability to become more culturally competent and open-minded when working with different clients. When I’m not in therapist mode, I’m... Either out and about on the town attending open mics, enjoying brunch, having fun at concerts or at home watching the Food Network, cartoons, dramas, and comedies.

Welcome! The Ebbs and Flows of Life are something we all experience. We flow towards our hopes and dreams, while other times we may flow away. When your life ebbs it is like you are struggling against the current, and fighting your way through the current to grasp what is important to you. Perhaps the times you are flowing away are a result of relationship concerns, addiction, past trauma, anxiety or living with negativity. Like large rocks under the water, you may not be able to see them but they are creating obstacles in achieving your goals while potentially impacting both your health and well-being. I believe that by taking this step in seeking help you are interested in moving forward back to what is important to you. My role is to help you on your journey.

I am currently accepting new clients via teletherapy. I have been practicing as a Licensed Mental Health Counselor in Florida for the past 22 years and am also a Licensed Therapist in Virginia, largely with a focus in the areas of depression, anxiety, thought disturbance, addiction, emotion regulation, relationship distress, and self-esteem. I feel many of the responses we struggle with are connected to a traumatic event (or perceived trauma) from the past. Currently, my primary focus has been in the individual realm, with a focus on relationship growth. I will encourage you to prioritize the areas you wish to address in therapy and tailor my approach on an individual basis. I believe in client autonomy so the areas that are addressed are the areas you want to address. I draw on several treatment modalities (including, but not limited to, Internal Family Systems, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, and Dialectical Behavior Therapy) to allow you to further develop your strengths and help you meet all of your treatment plan goals at a speed that works best for you. I also have completed training in Gottman Method Couples Therapy as well as the Developmental Model for Couples and integrate both of these approaches into my relational therapy practice. Overall, I help you to see that managing the stressor is more important than just managing the stress as it will allow you to cope with anything that comes your way.

Feeling like you can't quite keep it together? Sometimes we get overwhelmed with the stresses in life and need help sorting them out. Maybe you've just hit a low point or feeling overly worried and anxious. Talking to a therapist has helped many people who are feeling the same way. The last few years have been more than difficult, and people are struggling. I help people figure out what's working well for them and what's not. Then we explore together the many strengths and skills you already have and can use to overcome the problems life throws at us. I teach new skills and introduce new tools that you can use to feel better and get your life back on track. I have many years of experience working with people with depression and anxiety as well as bipolar and schizophrenia. I am accepting of varying types of diversity and use solution focused methods with compassion and caring to create and meet the therapeutic goals that are unique to you. Starting therapy can be hard but it can change your life. I would love to work with you to start that process and look forward to meeting you.

I know at times life can seem confusing or even impossible. I believe with every fiber of my being we all have the answers we need. Somehow we get separated from our core strength. You are the expert on you, you alone hold your truth. I am interested in your story and use the description, "enlightened witness" as a way to describe some of what I do in my work as a therapist and healer. I see myself as a fellow traveler, a helper, and a companion who "holds the lantern" to help guide people to see out of dark places and into their truth. Much of the time we are living a narrative others have crafted, often by pain rather than strength. These narratives can feel like prisons but we can heal and take back our story, and choose to see from our core. Embrace compassion, reflection and most of all self-love. Some of my greatest joy comes from helping people move past pain into healthy and loving relationships with themselves and others. I believe suffering is inevitable but not without wisdom and growth. Sometimes seeing our strengths is difficult. Self-love must include your whole being and all parts ~ messy, vulnerable, raw and authentic. You are the velveteen rabbit and you are already worthy of your own love. You are already real. I am licensed in Virginia, West Virginia and Texas. I see clients in these states only at this point. FYI Please schedule on the hour only. Otherwise, I will have to call you back and reschedule.

Hello I am Laura Cahill! I am a passionate, energetic, and dedicated Licensed Clinical Social Worker with a love for the art of engagement in the work of therapy. Do you feel like your emotions have taken over and pushed you out of the driver's seat in life? In life, we often experience challenges, unexpected stress and transitions, trauma, hurt, grief and loss. Understandably, we may struggle with powerful emotions that seem to almost overtake us. Part of the human experience is wanting to feel in control of our inner and outer lives. And when our natural emotional responses to difficult experiences and circumstances threaten that sense of control, we may find ourselves fighting our feelings. It’s time to step back from the battle-not by retreating, but by re-framing. Our emotions and feelings are not our enemies, they are messengers. This is where our work begins. We will focus on how to hear those messages by learning the skills needed to hear, manage and interact with these feelings to help calm the turmoil that life has taken on, understand and recover from the past, and to be fully present to our current experiences. To have the opportunity to create a life that is built on your terms and not defined by what has happened to you. Entering into the world of therapy can feel overwhelming and a bit scary (well done making it this far). I applaud your bravery and commitment to your process of healing and recovery and I would be honored to have the opportunity to get to know you better and to be a part of this journey with you.

Drawing from both my West Indian heritage and my 10 years of service in the U.S. Navy, I bring a well-rounded perspective that acknowledges the challenges people face and the resilience they possess.

In my practice, I focus on helping clients cultivate emotional wellness, navigate major life transitions, and build the skills needed to thrive in the face of adversity. Whether it’s developing healthy coping strategies, improving communication, or fostering a sense of inner strength, my goal is to guide clients on a path toward greater self-discovery and personal empowerment.

I have worked or trained in schools, private practice, community mental health centers, and Probate & Family Court. I enjoy helping clients identify their strengths and learn skills to navigate life challenges and transitions.

I started providing mental health services in the community in 2016 as a behavior technician. Once graduated I became a psychotherapy resident and later completed full psychotherapist licensure requirements with a specialty in marriage and family therapy. My therapeutic style is psychodynamic/psychoeducational, which means I help individuals understand the psychological underlying motivations for their behaviors impacting their mood shifts and precipitating symptoms and/or relational distress and impacts on our day to day activities. Relational distress is not confined to couples. Relational distress (mostly precipitated by depression and anxiety and as the cause of depression/anxiety in a never ending loop) includes connections in all existing contexts. Day to day actives impacted by mood shifts and symptoms of depression and anxiety can range from our daily personal hygiene routines to balancing (or rather neglecting to) a check book, to job performance, to dysregulation showing up in additive day to day behaviors (alcohol and drugs are not the only addition behaviors presenting as dysregulation). In my practice, I believe that therapy is a collaborative journey where the client and therapist work together. My work is grounded in mutual respect, empathy, unconditional regard, and trust. My goal is to provide a supportive and non-judgmental place where the individual can explore thoughts, feelings and stances impacting their interpersonal, intrapersonal, and day to day experiences with honesty and openness. To me, growth and change are deeply personal experiences and unique to each individual. A transformative process that unfolds carefully and mindfully over time. My role is to provide guidance and tools towards the path of healing and self discovery of insights and resilience as the individual, couple, or the family reach their desired goals.

I have always had the conscious goal of supporting others with being able to overcome their hardships and internal challenges that prevents them from being successful. I am a firm believer that in life we have all experienced some type of challenge that will impact our thoughts and emotions. For some people the challenge is more difficult than others and they will experience greater hardship and internal challenges that will send them on a spiral to the unknown. Being a therapist has always been a desire of mine to support others with understanding their thoughts, feelings, beliefs and behaviors associated with how they feel.

One of the wonderful aspects of therapy is that it's a journey for all stages of life — not just during moments of turmoil, but also in times of joy and stability. My mission is and will always be to empower individuals to embrace self-compassion and grace, fostering a deeper understanding of themselves. My approach to therapy focuses on addressing present challenges through practical solutions that enhance your well-being and alleviate stress. I prioritize accountability and offer the insights you need, rather than just what you might want to hear. I recognize that no textbook or degree can rival first-hand experience. Bearing in mind that I may not entirely grasp my client's personal experiences, I excel at offering a professional yet personable perspective, maintaining an open mind, and always remembering that my clients are the true experts on their own lives. I acknowledge that I may be the sole confidant of your struggles or hardships, and it's very important to me that you feel free to be your authentic self during our time together. Whatever it may be that you are going through, be encouraged to know that you certainly are not alone. I am here and I am here to help.

I will provide a safe, non-judgmental space where you can explore your emotions, develop healthy coping strategies, and build resilience. I will work collaboratively with you to help you discover your strengths, improve your dimensions of wellness, and achieve your goals.

I received my Masters in Social Work, Planning, and Administration from Virginia Commonwealth University have over 20 years of experience in the field of social work, advocating and serving people with disabilities in their community. I have extensive experience working with children and adults assisting them in both English and Spanish. I received my undergraduate degree in Studio Art from Mary Washington and also work as an accomplished artist. My love for art and social work is the focus of my practice. I work in the expressive arts and EMDR and am working towards certification in both. I believe in the healing power of art and its use in mental health recovery. Art allows us to bring about change inside ourselves and can support you as you move through your distress. I believe that recovery is always possible. If you are looking for recovery and change I invite you to reach out to me, be well.
