I help to create a safe, collaborative space where you will feel seen, not judged. Our relationship is one where you can let your guard down and show up as your full self. It is my goal to use a warm and compassionate relationship to walk alongside you, offering reflection, compassion, and challenge when needed to help you reach your goals.
With 8 years of experience in the mental health field, I firmly believe in the parity of mental and physical health. Life often leads us into dark tunnels, and my role in therapy is to guide individuals toward the light at the end of those tunnels.

I’m Ashinna Cole, a Licensed Professional Counselor providing virtual therapy to individuals experiencing trauma, depression, anxiety, and performance anxiety. I’m passionate about helping people who are ready to better understand themselves, heal from experiences that have shaped them, and actively work toward meaningful change.
As a LPC, I know that the client is the expert in their own life, and this truth guides the work we do together. I earned my BA from Lycoming College and my MA in Clinical Mental Health Counseling and School Counseling from Rider University. My theoretical framework is Person Centered/Solution Focused/CBT via talk therapy. My specialties include, but are not limited to anxiety, depression, ADHD, self-esteem, career challenges, relationship issues, grief, family challenges, and illness.
I have been working in the mental health field for four years and have experience supporting clients ages 5–60. I graduated from Regent University in 2021 with a degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling. For clients who prefer a faith-based approach, I also integrate Christian principles into therapy sessions.
I believe the most effective care comes from a strong, collaborative partnership. I approach each person as more than a diagnosis, and I value honesty, accountability, and mutual respect in the work we do together. Change is possible—I’ve seen it firsthand—and I’m here to support you in becoming the version of yourself you want to be. My background includes both a Bachelor’s and Master’s in Nursing from Walsh University, and I bring that clinical foundation into thoughtful, individualized care.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in Abingdon
Searching for therapists in Abingdon starts with finding someone whose experience fits what you want help with. Therapists may support concerns like anxiety, depression, grief, relationship challenges, and life transitions. As you compare options, look for a therapist whose listed specialties, therapy style, and training match your needs. A bio may mention approaches like cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, trauma-informed care, or support for couples and families.
In a smaller city like Abingdon, local in-person options may be more limited than in larger Virginia markets. Virtual therapy can expand your search while still letting you work with a therapist licensed in Virginia. Consider practical details like appointment availability, whether the therapist is accepting new patients, and whether they offer a free phone consultation. Reading profiles before you book can help you compare communication style, session structure, and what each therapist focuses on in care.
Therapy in Abingdon can be a significant expense without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and understand what you may pay before your first appointment. Headway helps you search for licensed therapists who are accepting new patients, check your insurance, see estimated out-of-pocket costs, and book directly when you’re ready.
