Therapist

Virtual • Woodlawn, VA


I believe therapy works best when clients feel safe, heard, and genuinely supported. I strive to create a warm, nonjudgmental, and collaborative environment where clients can show up as their authentic selves. My approach is compassionate, direct when needed, and focused on helping clients build practical tools for everyday life while also exploring deeper emotional patterns and experiences.

I enjoy working with individuals navigating anxiety, life transitions, relationship concerns, self-esteem challenges, stress, identity exploration, and emotional overwhelm. I am passionate about supporting LGBTQIA+ and BIPOC clients and creating an affirming therapeutic space where clients feel respected and understood.

I understand that starting therapy can feel vulnerable, and my goal is to meet clients where they are while helping them move toward healing, clarity, and meaningful growth.

Hi, I'm Josh. I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in Virginia with over 20 years of experience working with individuals diagnosed with Intellectual and Developmental Disabilities, and more than a decade supporting individuals in acute crisis situations. I earned my Bachelor's in Sociology from Virginia Tech, a Master’s in Social Work from Radford University, and a second Master’s in Aging and Health from Georgetown University.

Clients should know that I bring a deep commitment to meeting people where they are—emotionally, mentally, and situationally. I’ve worked in long-term care, acute crisis settings, and served as the director of a regional crisis response team. No matter the setting, I’m dedicated to treating people with respect, dignity, and compassion. I'm here to provide a sound board and assist in making meaningful changes for those I provide services for including those managing depression, anxiety, difficult relationships, or just need someone to talk to about everyday life issues we all experience. I also have a special passion for working with the aging population, ensuring their voices are heard and their needs honored.

Hi hi! I’m Kaitlyn, an LCSW in Virginia specializing in grief therapy and anxiety management. I spend my days in a school division providing mental health services to rural kiddos, and then I come home to chase my own kiddos. Providing therapy brings me back to myself, as strange as that sounds. I am fueled by helping others!

Something brought you here. That instinct is worth listening to. I’m Jen, a Licensed Professional Counselor with over a decade of experience helping teens and adults through stress, anxiety, and those “where do I go from here?” moments. Basically, I help people with the sticky, messy parts of being human. (Spoiler: everyone has them.) I have a soft spot for young adults figuring out their next chapter, parents running on empty, and educators who hold space for others all day and have nothing left for themselves. I also work with job stress, burnout, identity questions, relationship changes, and that quiet feeling that something needs to shift. My style is warm, honest, and grounded. I’ll meet you with empathy, and I’ll also nudge you a bit. Feeling understood is great. Feeling understood and moving forward is better. We’ll talk openly, laugh or cry as needed (sometimes both in the same session), and find practical ways to untangle old patterns. I earned my master’s in School and Mental Health Counseling from the University of Pennsylvania, and I’m a certified K-12 school counselor. All sessions are online for folks in Pennsylvania, Delaware, and Virginia, so you can come as you are. Sweatpants welcome. If you’re ready to talk, reach out. I’d love to hear what brought you here.

I am originally from North Carolina and moved to Virginia 6 years ago. I studied at Wake Forest University. Since I was younger, I've enjoyed helping others and learning about the science of mental health. It became my hobby when I was younger. I enjoy working with so many backgrounds and increasing my education each year as I help new people. Currently, I like to utilize mindfulness based CBT, DBT, and ACT.
