Hello. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Virginia. With over 26 years of clinical experience, I support clients to access their inner resources and strengthen coping skills so they can design the life they seek. My work focuses on turning emotions into wisdom (emotion regulation), managing stress (distress tolerance), and teaching others how to treat us (interpersonal effectiveness). These skills can help us deepen the meaningful connections with loved ones and improve the overall quality of our lives.

I understand that life can be overwhelming and we all need someone to listen at times. It can be helpful to evaluate our lives, problems or certain situations in a safe and confidential setting. Current stressors, such as problems with work, family, romantic relationships or finances can make it difficult to function adequately. I have been working as a counseling psychologist for over 10 years with most of my experience with adult individuals. I enjoy conducting therapy with people from different backgrounds and have worked successfully with individuals who have experienced various types of trauma, such as childhood abuse, sexual or physical assaults, combat or domestic violence. I am also experienced in treating anxiety, depression, adjustment issues, anger management problems, or problem solving deficits. Making health behavior changes, such as behavior activation or weight management, can be achieved via therapy and I have successfully worked with individuals who wanted to improve their health.
I am originally from Germany and I speak English and German. I also lived in Switzerland and England for a while. I studied Psychology in the United States and graduated with a Ph.D. in Counseling Psychology.

Hello, my name is Sally. For decades it has been my life mission to help people return to resiliency after setbacks, losses, pain, stress, and suffering. Resiliency means you still acknowledge and own the dark times in your life, but you are freed to return to creating, to feeling compassion instead of being needy and fatigued. Resiliency means your body, brain, hormones, and emotions are back in flow and in healthy relationships with others and the environment and that your mind is free to focus on the things you want and need to focus on.
Often people come to therapy feeling stuck and feeling unable to change a situation or the suffering in their lives. Many times for life problems that just emerge, all you need to return to resiliency is more options to consider. Most successful outcomes involve finding the right combination of attacking certain aspects, embracing and loving certain aspects, simply letting go of some aspects, and avoiding some aspects of an issue. I bring a comprehensive set of tools and provide coaching on how you can put the right tools for you and your situation into action.
In all cases, it is best to build on our strengths. However, in many cases - especially if your ‘weaknesses’ are connected to intractable and chronic pain or long-term damage, like in addictions, it is best not to ignore or push those problems and feelings down or to the back. I can help you navigate through the inner judges, critics, and defender parts back to a centered, reliable starting place. I help you find and connect a ‘good self to come from’.
Sometimes emergent life challenges reveal the deep fault lines of old unresolved traumas. Often struggles with competency, completion, relationships, dependence, or other aspects of being consistently functional and resilient are rooted in unresolved events or relational traumas. I can help you make a journey map to get started in coping with and ultimately resolving those traumas. I can assist you in learning how to connect to and relate to those parts that are impediments to healthy relationships, body flow, and resiliency. The task is to reorganize clusters of feelings and find a starting place for change and balance.

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW). I have completed Level 1 Internal Family Systems (IFS) training by the IFS Institute. This is the tool I use to help alleviate symptoms from unresolved issues in the past that remain present in our daily lives, and mental wellbeing issues that decrease our quality of life. I enjoy working with adults of all ages. I use IFS with trauma informed care with a body-centered approach. I believe this modality can help many of us who tried other ways and are still seeking peace of mind.

My overall goal is to help you feel more in control of your emotions and thoughts resulting in you being excited about life again. Therapy can feel scary and even overwhelming, but trust me you are making the best choice for you.

Empowering Others to Live Happier Lives. I am Jennifer Evans, LPC, LMHC. I am a board-certified therapist in multiple states and over 20 years of counseling experience, with a proven success of reaching remission in Depression with my clients in one session; this is within the 95th percentile of clinicians measured. I am passionate about effecting change and helping work with people to achieve insight in order to gain maximum potential and reach their most desired visions and goals. I know personally and professionally, how difficult it is to get here and I am proud of your first step and commitment to change. I know I can be of valued support as we work together to reach success, insight, and overcome emotional and psychosocial stressors.
A little more about me; I was born and raised in Florida. I did my undergraduate at Florida State University, and moved to Virginia to attend Eastern Virginia Medical School, where I studied clinical counseling and received my Master’s in Art Therapy. As a military spouse, we relocated many times, having to redevelop my career each duty station, which gave me a myriad of experiences with various populations. This has lead me to focus on occupational counseling and the effects of stress on our mental health. My passion for treatment is trauma and life experiences that lead us to feel fearful, unsafe, and saddened; sometimes with no explanation as to why we feel the way we do. I work with my client’s in a person-centered format with cognitive-behavioral underpinnings and psychoeducation to not only work through and build a better understanding of ourselves but the experiences and beliefs that built us and ways to endure and build resiliency to better manager those feelings so they are not as overwhelming in the future.

Hi! I'm a Licensed Clinical Social Worker based in Virginia. I am also a Christian and a Veteran. I received my Masters from the University of Southern California and have experience in working with an array of mental health issues including anxiety, depression, and Post Traumatic Stress Disorder.
I strive to provide an environment that fosters mutual trust and respect but still hold to my deep held values.
I recognize the challenge individuals face when acknowledging the need for help and taking the first step towards addressing their issues. Understanding the reluctance to admit vulnerability, I am dedicated to making this initial step more accessible.
I emphasize importance of addressing habits, hurts, and hang-ups to foster mental, emotional, physical, and spiritual growth and healing. Drawing parallels with seeking medical help for physical ailments, I believe mental health should be approached with the same level of importance. While acknowledging that the journey to healing is neither quick nor easy, I am committed to providing support and guidance to help individuals navigate this pathway.
