Stephanie Geiger

Therapist

Virtual • Charlottesville, VA


I work with individuals, couples, and families of all ages. I have a Masters in Clinical Health Psychology and a Masters in Nutrition/Dietetics, which helps lend to a holistic approach to my work with clients. I commonly work with health behavioral change, anxiety, depression, eating disorders, ADHD, OCD, and relationship change. My treatment approach utilizes a biopsychosocial lense in long-term therapy based in psychodynamic, strengths-based, and integrative work in overall health. I utilize coping skills from CBT, DBT, ACT, and Mindfulness. I incorporated life-skills such a assertiveness, boundaries, and career.

I love the work that I do and the healing relationships I have been able to foster with my clients. I believe that therapy is a form of self-care and I want to be an advocate of that for my clients. I welcome anyone who thinks they may want some support, whether long-term or short-term to reach out to me and set up a brief phone consultation.

Happy patient looking away

Find an expert who truly understands maternal mental health

Headway helps you find expert-guided support for every stage of motherhood — from finding the right therapist or psychiatrist, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Postpartum Therapist in Charlottesville, VA

Finding postpartum therapists in Charlottesville starts with knowing what kind of support matches your needs. Postpartum concerns can include more than depression, such as postpartum anxiety, birth-related stress, identity shifts, sleep disruption, and relationship strain. As you compare therapists, look for experience with perinatal mental health, postpartum support, or therapy for perinatal depression. Some therapists may also list specialized training, such as the perinatal mental health certification (PMH-C), which can signal focused experience with pregnancy and postpartum care.

In a smaller city like Charlottesville, local in-person options may be more limited than in a larger metro area. Virtual therapy can expand your search across Virginia and may be practical if your schedule changes often, you are managing infant care, or you are recovering physically. Beyond postpartum experience, consider appointment availability, whether the therapist is accepting new patients, and whether they offer a free phone consultation. Reading therapist bios can help you understand how they describe their approach, who they work with, and what a first session may include.

Therapy in Charlottesville can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and make ongoing care easier to plan for. Headway helps you find therapists who focus on postpartum support in Virginia, and you can check each profile for insurance participation and view estimated costs before you book. You can review profiles, compare availability, and book directly when you’re ready.
