Meet Shanelle McClaine, LCSW – Your Partner in Healing and Growth I help individuals reclaim their lives from anxiety, depression, PTSD, and the deep impact of trauma. As a trauma-informed psychotherapist and U.S. Air Force veteran with over 18 years of experience, I bring warmth, professionalism, and a deep understanding of how past experiences shape our present.

Warm Greetings! I have 32 years of experience in the counseling field since 1993. I earned my Masters degree through Longwood University. I worked in residential mental health care and in-home settings. In 2008, along with 3 colleagues, I founded a day school for youth with learning disabilities and mental health challenges. I have specialized in working with children, tweens, teens, and young adults. Adult clients, ranging up to seniors, can explore in an accepting space as I journey alongside them. I currently work extensively with diverse families and adults with unique backgrounds as well. I believe in creating a safe space for all individuals to be heard and validated. I value building trust and openness with people to support them as they unravel the twists and turns that life presents us all. When I listen attentively in sessions, the person, couple, or family are the most important people in the room as we seek to shed light on the areas we can discover together. I see clients both virtually and in my office. *In-office sessions require prior approval by contacting me directly.

Additionally, you can receive mindfulness-based, somatic integration, and a holistic lens to examine your needs via my 11 years’ experience and an additional master's in integrative health coaching plus 20 years’ experience in therapeutic design, so we can look together at social and environmental problem and solution spaces based upon your needs.

Hi- I’m Heather! I’m a licensed clinical social worker offering telehealth therapy in the state of Virginia. One of my greatest professional passions is introducing clients to EMDR therapy!

 If you’ve tried talk therapy before and found that you’ve hit a wall, you’re not alone. Talk therapy may help us gain new insights into our patterns of behavior or relationship dynamics, but we often still have trouble changing the way we respond to particular triggers. Despite years of talk therapy, many of us find that there is still an unbridgeable gap between what our rational thinking brain knows and our felt sense of truth. 

Do you cognitively believe that you are not a bad/unworthy/unloved person but deep in your body you cannot shake the sense that these core beliefs are true? EMDR can help resolve this disconnect. 

 Talk therapy work is done in the left hemisphere of the brain (this is the part of the brain where logical, rational thought occurs). But trauma is stored in the RIGHT hemisphere of the brain and the limbic system. Language does not easily address memories or beliefs stored in this part of the body and you may stay stuck living with maladaptive core beliefs and reliving traumatic memories until you can incorporate your RIGHT side of your brain in therapy. EMDR is one way of doing this. EMDR operates under the theory that the brain has a natural system in place to move toward adaptive resolution. Trauma blocks this system preventing us from fully processing our memories. EMDR reactivates this system, allowing our brain to fully integrate trauma so we can be free to live life on our own terms.

I'm an experienced, compassionate social worker, who specializes in helping others to be their best selves, and to find hope. Each person is on their own journey, and I want to be able to help assist people who are struggling to reach their goals.

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.

Throughout my career, I’ve worked in diverse settings—including schools, group homes, hospitals, and outpatient clinics—which has given me a broad understanding of the unique challenges individuals and families face. In addition to clinical work, I teach psychology at local colleges and universities and actively contribute to my community through volunteer work. As a board-approved LPC Supervisor in Virginia, I also enjoy mentoring students and Residents as they grow into confident, ethical professionals. Whether you're seeking support for yourself, your child, or looking for professional guidance, I’m here to provide a thoughtful, experienced, and collaborative approach to care.

I have been practicing some form of counseling/therapy since I started work in victim advocacy in 2018. My work with trauma survivors led to the pursuit of my masters in direct practice social work (MSW) and, ultimately, my license for clinical practice (LCSW) in 2024. I have a strong background and training in Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), and I am fully trained and pursuing my certification in Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) Therapy. I lean into the powerful combination of these two modalities to treat a wide spectrum of personal and emotional conditions including mood, personality, and impulse control disorders. I consider myself a warm and casual clinician. I value comfort and ease in therapeutic relationships, but I also hold my clients to high standards for a good working dynamic that enables change. I enjoy humor and banter, but I seek authenticity above all else, which means you (the client) bring your actual self, not the idealized version of yourself or some version you believe your therapist wants you to be.

I am Gregory a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and therapist. I believe therapy and coaching is a very personal and intimate experience, therefore I take a gentle, non-judgmental, yet action-oriented approach. I provide clinical therapy and I enjoy working with your entire family or just you. I have worked with individuals, families and couples in a variety of settings for over 30 years. I enjoy the progress my clients make and I look forward to supporting you in healing and growing.

I have a special place in my work for people who are tired of always having to be the strong one, the person everyone calls, the person who handles everything, the person who looks fine on the outside but knows there's a lot going on underneath. If that sounds familiar, I want therapy to be one place where you don't have to keep that up. With me, you can talk like yourself. You can laugh, you can cry, you can say "I don't know." We'll start wherever you are and go from there. Hi, I'm Keia, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker licensed in Virginia and Texas, and founder of Beyond Your Reflection Counseling Services, LLC. I'm glad you found your way here, and I want you to know I'm not here to judge your story, I'm here to help you understand it, work through it, and decide what you want the next part of it to look like. I know people come to therapy for all kinds of reasons. Sometimes you know exactly what's wrong, and sometimes all you know is that something doesn't feel right anymore. Either way, you don't have to come into our first session with everything figured out. I've spent years working in community mental health, crisis intervention, and care management, supporting people through anxiety, depression, grief, trauma, relationship concerns, and major life changes. I've learned that people don't always need someone telling them what they "should" be doing. They need someone who will really listen, understand what's happening, and help them figure out what comes next. That's the kind of therapist I am.
