Therapists in Virginia

Hi, I'm Adam and I'm looking forward to meeting and seeing if we are a good therapeutic match. In my career I've worked with a broad spectrum of clients hailing from many different ethnicities, age groups, genders, levels of education, socio-economic status, sexualities and personal histories. I recognize that behavior and mental health occur in a context. Trauma is real. Oppression and injustice are real. Before I was a therapist I spent years in community organizing and social justice advocacy. Therapy that isn't grounded in the social environment in which one lives is incomplete at best. I understand this because I've been there and seen it firsthand. If you're looking for a therapist that gets this in their bones, I'm your person. My favorite thing about providing therapy is asking questions that unlock the insight and inspiration you need to solve your problems, manage your emotions effectively and become the self that you most want to be. When you work with me, you'll have the listening ear of someone with broad experience and perspective. You will find keys to open doors you may not even have been aware of, and you'll emerge with greater self-awareness and confidence. I have extensive experience working with people with serious mental illness, or "SMI" (e.g. schizophrenia, schizoaffective disorder, bipolar disorder etc.) and love witnessing and supporting people with challenges like these being and becoming more than they may have been told they could. That said, one doesn't have to have SMI to benefit tremendously from therapy. My experience working with the SMI community broadens my perspective rather than limiting my practice. I carry a deep compassion for all humanity and welcome the opportunity to work with anyone looking for something better out of life. NOTE: I cannot serve residents of Chesterfield County at this time.

Hi, I am a Licensed counselor practicing in Virginia. I graduated from Radford University with my Master of Science in Counseling Psychology in 1992, becoming licensed in 2002. Throughout my years of experience, the most important skill that I feel that I have been able to succeed in is listening to the individuals I work with. So often people do not feel heard, so it is important for people to not only feel heard but also that they are effectively communicating what they are feeling.

I am currently accepting new clients for individual sessions via teletherapy. I have been practicing as a Licensed Mental Health Counselor in Florida for the past 23 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.

I utilize a positive theoretical orientation which assumes that all individuals possess an innate desire for well-balanced emotional/mental health. I believe a person enters therapy with a strong wish, whether conscious or unconscious, to overcome obstacles and free themselves from constraints that are holding them back. I find that everyone needs a slightly different approach to accomplish these goals, so I adjust in technique for each specific challenge. I truly enjoy the experience of guiding my clients through this process and consider it a privilege to play such an important role in a person's life. “Crying does not indicate that you are weak. Since birth, it has always been a sign that you are alive.” ― Charlotte Brontë, Jane Eyre

Also, I can help with life stressors such as work related stress, divorce, separation, blended families, parent/child relationships, parenting skills, infidelity and trust, adjustment issues, social skills training, self esteem issues, emotional issues, motivational issues, and goal setting. Currently, I am offering tele-health (telephonic or video). I am available Tuesday through Friday (8:00 am until 4:00 pm).

As a Board-Certified Art Therapist (ATR-BC) and Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Virginia, my hope is to engage in a collaborative therapeutic alliance with each individual & couple: fostering self-efficacy, developing new coping skills, focusing on strengths, and finding solutions that support your journey for self-discovery and overall healing.

If you can read this, you made the first step. Congratulations. Seeking therapy is hard. Most people delay and tell themselves that whatever they are experiencing must be the way life is. Chances are if you have reached the point to begin exploring therapy, counseling can help make your life better. While therapy is often hard, it can be an enjoyable and uplifting experience as well. I believe that you cannot laugh without a combination of insight and relief. You can expect some humor in most sessions. I have been a Licensed Professional Counselor for over 20 years. In that time I have worked with men, women, teens, and families on a wide variety of issues. Sometimes that work simply involved helping them through a particular incident or life change that overwhelmed them. Other times our work together centered around longstanding issues of depression, anxiety, trauma, and addiction. In addition to traditional cognitive behavioral therapy, I also offer a fourth-wave therapy, Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT). I have found this technique to be highly effective in helping people with trauma and or anxiety. Our minds and bodies are connected. Anyone who has experienced a tight neck and shoulders or an upset stomach when they were stressed knows this. EFT uses acupressure (done by the client) and cognitive interventions to provide fast and effective relief. With over 20 years of clinical experience, I am ready to help you through the challenges you are facing. In addition to counseling, I also provide vocational testing, coaching, and consulting. I provide both Christian and secular counseling depending on the needs of my clients. For clients with high level confidentiality concerns due to corporate or clearance issues, there are ways we can do EFT without you ever speaking out loud about events.

As a clinician, I'm passionate about integrating the seen with the unseen. Understanding and working with the root issues. Helping you open into more of who you can be. I offer a warm, compassionate place for you to allow (or learn to allow) yourself to be cared for and supported. Embodied, experiential, and present: I work with techniques such as felt sensing and interoception, Accelerated Experiential Dynamic Psychotherapy (AEDP), Internal Family Systems (IFS)-informed, Energy Psychology, and Emotion Freedom Technique (EFT) tapping, to help you access, understand, and release emotions and stuckness and trauma.

Welcome! My name is Shabria Mayne, and I have over 10 years of experience as a professional counselor. I hold a Master of Science in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Mercer University in Atlanta, GA. I am a Virginia licensed professional Counselor and a North Carolina Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor. My objective entails goals centered around developing the mental health and functional well-being of women, men, and teens of diverse cultural backgrounds.

I earned a Master of Science degree in Clinical Counseling from Loyola University in Baltimore, Maryland. Additionally, I received a secondary Guidance Certification from Villanova University. I am a Nationally Board-Certified Counselor and have worked in a broad range of settings for over 28 years. I believe that the best clinical practice is an evidence-formed, eclectic model whereby the therapist adjusts to the needs of the client. I strive to provide clients with an opportunity to explore their inner selves, their relationships with others and their innate striving for wholeness, creativity, and well-being. Therapy can increase overall sense of well-being, build stronger coping and problem-solving skills, strengthen one's resiliency and determination, change behavior, and build stronger interpersonal relationships. The establishment of a trusting relationship between the client and therapist is of utmost importance to be able to work together to build a skill set to adapt and overcome life's most difficult challenges in order to create a fulfilling life. Regardless of a client's clinical needs, it is imperative to determine their support system and focus on the encouraging aspects of those relationships in helping the client become more resilient and set on a positive path in life.

Hello! My name is Dr. Tomlin, and I am a licensed and nationally certified professional counselor and traumatologist. I specialize in various modalities, including strength-based coaching, existentialism, multicultural awareness, and cognitive behavioral therapy. I am passionate about helping others achieve social, emotional, and behavioral improvements and providing them with the fundamental tools to overcome life struggles so they can prosper. Life is full of obstacles and difficult circumstances, which can feel overwhelming and all-consuming. Navigating these unique, daily challenges can be isolating, leaving you second-guessing everything and spiraling with sadness, frustration, and exhaustion.

Grief can feel overwhelming and isolating, whether it’s the loss of a loved one, anticipatory grief, or the challenges of caring for someone with a chronic or terminal illness. I provide a compassionate, nonjudgmental space where adults can process complex emotions, honor their loved ones, and begin to move forward. In your first session, we’ll talk about your story, your current challenges, and create a plan tailored to your needs and goals.

I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker providing teletherapy to adults in Virginia. My work is grounded in compassion, respect, and curiosity. I approach therapy as a collaboration where we make space for what’s difficult, confusing, or painful while also noticing progress and moments of relief. Clients often describe our sessions as calm and genuine, with humor and honesty mixed in. I practice from a person-centered and humanistic framework, integrating CBT, DBT, mindfulness, and narrative work as needed. I’m agnostic and open to people of all faiths and worldviews. My focus is on helping you understand your experiences, manage distress, and find meaning that feels true to you. Therapy isn’t supposed to always feel good. It can be uncomfortable and tiring at times. My hope is that you leave each session with a little more clarity, support, and confidence in yourself. A limited number of reduced-fee slots ($30–$45) are available for clients experiencing financial hardship or without insurance. Please inquire about current availability.

I challenge stereotypes about aging and promote a vision of later life filled with possibility and fulfillment.

My approach integrates evidence-based and trauma-informed practices, including CBT, TF-CBT, and attachment-based therapy, to help clients build resilience, self-awareness, and healthier relationships. I speak both English and Amharic and value the importance of diversity, cultural humility, and representation in the therapeutic process. I strive to create a supportive, inclusive, and culturally responsive space where individuals and families can heal, grow, and connect with their strengths.

I enjoy working with people to help them build a strong sense of self, encourage their confidence in relationships, and help foster a sense of calm and security in their everyday life. I enjoy helping parents navigate the many challenges that come our way. I believe people seek therapy for many reasons: adjustment to a new city or life situation, feeling overwhelmed or stuck, or problems with relationships. Counseling is a process that most of us could benefit from time to time at different stages in life, as it brings an outsider's perspective to events, we are faced with in day-to-day life in a nonjudgmental way.

I am licensed in Virginia with 8 years of professional work experience. I have experience working from youth ages 4-17 and adults ages 18-70. I have experiences primarily working with individuals with anxiety, depression, adhd, and trauma. I am a Christian (but not a Christian therapist) and can compliment that side of your needs if you so prefer allowing a safe environment for religious/spiritual challenges. I work with my clients to create an open and safe environment where thoughts and feelings can be shared without fear of judgment. Taking the first step to sign up for therapy can take courage and I am proud of you for getting started!
