YOU DON'T HAVE TO FIGURE THIS OUT ALONE

Life can become overwhelming in ways that are difficult to explain. You may be carrying stress that never seems to let up, struggling in relationships, grieving a loss, feeling disconnected, or finding that anxiety, panic or depression are making daily life more difficult than they once were.

Many people come to therapy after trying to manage things on their own for a long time.

Welcome! I'm David Caldwell, a psychotherapist and Clinical Social Worker who works with adults, couples and families in Reston, VA. I have extensive training and experience working with individuals navigating stress, conflict, depression, relationship distress, grief, anxiety, social discomfort and anxiety.

Area of focus include:

  • Anxiety and panic attacks
  • Depression
  • Grief and loss
  • Relationship distress
  • Couples counseling
  • Stress and burnout
  • Parenting challenges
  • Life transitions
  • Family conflict
  • Social anxiety and panic

Therapist

Virtual & in-person • 20 mi away • Centreville, VA


I believe counseling should be a place where you feel seen, heard, and supported. Many of the clients I work with are navigating important life transitions—work, school, marriage, family relationships, cultural identity, leadership stress, faith questions, or the pressures of professional life. I especially enjoy working with individuals, couples, and families from diverse backgrounds, including professional women, TCK, MKs, PKs, Ministry families, African and Black and brown families, diaspora families, international professionals, and people who desire to integrate their faith into the counseling process.

My goal is to create a space that is both compassionate and practical. I want clients to feel safe bringing their whole story into the room—faith, culture, family dynamics, and personal struggles—while also leaving sessions with tools that help them grow and move forward. Whether we are working through relationship challenges, stress, anxiety, or life direction, I approach therapy as a partnership where we work together toward healing and clarity.

April Clements

Therapist

Virtual • Virginia


I'm April — a Licensed Clinical Social Worker who has worked alongside people in some of the hardest chapters of their lives: crisis moments in emergency settings, school hallways with overwhelmed teenagers, and outpatient rooms where families were trying to figure out how to be in the same room again. That range of experience has shaped how I work. I know that anxiety looks different in a 15-year-old than it does in a 40-year-old. I know that couples who love each other can still feel like strangers. And I know that healing isn't linear — it takes time, trust, and the right support.

I specialize in anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship and marital concerns, family conflict, parenting challenges, life transitions, and emotional regulation. I work with children, teens, adults, couples, and families. For clients who want it, I also offer faith-integrated counseling that weaves Christian beliefs and values into the therapeutic process — thoughtfully, ethically, and at your pace.

Therapist

Virtual • Virginia


You’re the one who holds it all together. On paper it’s working — the career, the relationships, the discipline. Underneath, you’re anxious, tired, and disconnected. Intellect, stamina, perfectionism and people-pleasing may have gotten you far — but now its part of a pattern that keeps you stuck.

I see driven, self-aware adults who are often the most capable person in the room despite (and because of) their bodies holding patterns of high-functioning anxiety, trauma, and depression.

The pattern lives within your nervous system — so this work includes the mind, body, and environment. Yes, we will explore your patterns & why they exist, AND we’ll notice them in your body, in real time. Coherence, parts work, Brainspotting, ART, EFT- different tools, one principle: change consolidates through experience, not just explanation.

Happy patient looking away

Find the right couples therapist for you

Headway makes it easy to find support for your relationship — from finding the right provider, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Couples Therapist in Arlington

Finding couples therapists in Arlington starts with clarifying what you and your partner want to work on together. Couples therapy or couples counseling can support concerns like communication patterns, recurring conflict, trust after infidelity, major life transitions, and parenting disagreements. Not all therapists have specific training in working with couples, so look for licensed marriage and family therapists or therapists who list couples-focused approaches, such as the Gottman Method or emotionally focused therapy, in their bios.

Arlington couples counseling also depends on finding one therapist whose location, schedule, and style work for both partners. You may want an office near home, work, or transit, or you may prefer virtual appointments that make it easier to attend from different places. As you compare therapists for couples therapy in Arlington, review availability, session structure, and whether they offer a brief initial consultation. A therapist’s profile can also show how they describe their communication style and experience with relationship counseling.

Couples therapy in Arlington can be a significant investment without insurance, and using in-network coverage is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs. Headway helps you find therapists who provide couples therapy in VA and are accepting new patients. Nationally, Headway partners with a wide range of insurance plans, and you can enter your insurance details to confirm coverage for your specific region and plan. You can enter your insurance details to see estimated out-of-pocket costs before booking, then review therapist bios and book directly when you’re ready.

If you're experiencing or worried about violence, threats, or coercion in your relationship, couples therapy isn't usually the right starting point — individual support is safer. The National Domestic Violence Hotline (1-800-799-7233, or text START to 88788\) can help you think through next steps.
