Hi, I’m Johnathan, and I believe therapy is most effective when you feel genuinely heard, understood, and supported. I strive to create a welcoming, nonjudgmental space where we can work together to navigate life’s challenges and build on your strengths. Over the past 10 years, I’ve had the privilege of working in a variety of mental health settings, including inpatient care, substance use treatment, school-based therapy, outpatient therapy, and with first responders. I am also trained in EMDR and have experience helping clients work through trauma, anxiety, relationship challenges, and other life difficulties. Whether you’re feeling stuck or seeking personal growth, my goal is to help you find healing, hope, and greater alignment in your life.

Life can be hard and sometimes overwhelming, but there is light, even if you can’t see it right now. You don’t have to carry everything alone. With support, healing and growth are possible. You deserve a space where you feel heard, understood, and supported without judgment. Starting therapy can feel vulnerable, but I’m here to walk alongside you. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Virginia with over 10 years of experience in the helping profession, including clinical mental health work since 2020. I earned my Master of Science in Education in Clinical Mental Health and School Counseling from Old Dominion University. I work with adolescents, young adults, adults, couples, and veterans ages 11 to 40 supporting concerns such as life transitions, relationships, anxiety, depression, stress, trauma, self-esteem, and personal growth. I focus on building a genuine connection and creating a safe, welcoming space where you can be yourself. I value cultural humility and honor your unique experiences and strengths, meeting you where you are while supporting your growth. I believe healing happens in supportive relationships. Whether you’re facing challenges, processing the past, or moving into a new chapter, I’m here to support you. There is hope, and together we can help you move forward. Outside of counseling, I enjoy singing, painting, music, travel, and exploring different cultures, which help keep me grounded and inspired.

Victoria Sterling

Therapist

I believe therapy begins with feeling safe enough to be honest and being heard without judgment. I want my clients to know that you don't have to have all the answers before coming to therapy. Sometimes taking the first step is the hardest part.

I earned my Master of Social Work (MSW) from the University of Maryland and am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW-C) licensed in Virginia and Maryland. I have worked in behavioral health for many years, with a particular focus on substance use, co-occurring mental health concerns, and trauma. My experience includes working with adults from diverse backgrounds and supporting individuals through residential, intensive outpatient, and outpatient levels of care.

I genuinely enjoy helping people recognize strengths they may have forgotten they have. I believe that your diagnosis, substance use, trauma, or past experiences are only part of your story—they do not define who you are. I will meet you where you are and work with you to identify where you want to go next.

Thank you for reaching out for assistance. I have been providing mental health interventions and support for 36 years as an LCSW. I have also been credentialed as a trauma and ICU nurse and very early on in my professional life I was a special education teacher and received a masters in education as well.

My first few decades in practice was dedicated to the care and treatment of children 4 -12 years of age and adolescents 13 to 18 many who had been adjudicated for protection. Because of my nursing background and work in oncology I also have experience in providing supportive care for loss and grief issues as well as education and support for chronic illness, and post trauma care.

I have in the past 15 years began to work also with adults. I am licensed in EMDR interventions for PTSD both acute and chronic post trauma effects.

Because of my medical background i try and include a holistic approach to understanding both the physical and psychological issues my clients may be experiencing .

Hello. My name is Adam and I am a Licensed Professional Counselor with a Masters in Clinical Mental Health Counseling. I have worked with adolescents, young adults, adults, families, and athletes on a variety of clinical issues such as anxiety, depression, life transitions, conflict resolution, relationships, sports counseling, and trauma. I believe we are all just one small adjustment away from the life we want. With the use of psychotherapy, we can modify behaviors, our mindset, and implement healthy habits to find balance while continuing to grow. No time like the present, so let's get started!

Dr. Sylvia May

Psychiatric Mental Health NP

I believe exceptional mental health care begins with feeling heard, understood, and supported. I’m Dr. Sylvia May, a dual-certified Psychiatric Mental Health and Family Nurse Practitioner with a Doctor of Nursing Practice degree.

I provide compassionate, evidence-based psychiatric care for adults navigating anxiety, depression, ADHD, stress, burnout, life transitions, and women’s mental health concerns. My approach is warm, collaborative, and individualized, recognizing that your experiences, challenges, and goals are uniquely your own.

With a background in both psychiatric and primary care, I take a whole-person approach to mental health. I consider how emotional well-being, physical health, lifestyle, relationships, medications, and life circumstances intersect, rather than focusing solely on symptoms or a diagnosis.

My goal is to create a welcoming, judgment-free environment where you feel comfortable sharing your concerns and actively participating in your care. Together, we’ll develop a thoughtful, realistic treatment plan that reflects your needs, priorities, and goals while supporting meaningful, lasting improvements in your mental health and overall well-being.

Therapist

Virtual • Williamsburg, VA


For the past 35 years I have helped clients work through troubling life situations. Throughout my career I have worked with a broad spectrum of clients from every walk of life. I have treated people struggling with a wide range of problems; depression, anxiety, marital difficulties, infidelity, loss of a job, domestic violence, PTSD or other life altering circumstances. Your past does NOT equal your future. Who you can become is not defined by who you have been, who you think you are now, or by what experiences that may have impacted your life to this point. My role is to challenge and empower you to transform your life, helping you to change your patterns of thoughts, feelings, and behaviors that may not work or don't support you to attain the personal growth you are committed to accomplishing.
