Hi. I'm Kris Wegman, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker. I have decades of experience working with clients with various behavioral health concerns, including PTSD, depression, anxiety, bipolar disorder, and substance use disorders. I have had the privilege of working with Veterans for most of my career but have worked on the Civilian side, too.
I’m a Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP-BC) dedicated to helping individuals across the life span achieve mental health balance and resilience. My approach combines medication management with supportive therapy, always tailored to your unique needs.
Clients often describe me as compassionate, collaborative, and practical. Whether you’re navigating anxiety, depression, ADHD, or life transitions, I provide evidence-based care in a welcoming environment where you can feel heard and supported.
I help ambitious adults who feel plateaued or stuck in their work, relationships, healing or personal growth. On the surface life may look solid, yet anxiety lingers, relationships feel strained, or old patterns keep showing up when they try to move forward in their work, relationships, or personal growth. You understand yourself intellectually, but the deeper patterns still feel outside your control. Often the coping strategies that once propelled you forward are now the very things holding you back. You may even know exactly what needs to change, yet still find yourself repeating the same reactions when pressure rises.
I am a Board-Certified Psychiatrist and I have been treating patients across the lifespan for over 15 years. Once my caseload became full in 2022, I founded a small practice (Tandem Telehealth) where I now oversee a handful of talented psychiatric nurse practitioners and talk therapists. The team approach allows us to provide faster access to care for new patients and a higher level of support than you would likely receive from individuals working independently.
Life's challenges can sometimes feel overwhelming, whether you're struggling with anxiety, depression, relationship concerns, grief, or the transitions that come with different stages of life. You don't have to navigate these experiences alone. My goal is to provide a safe, supportive, and judgment-free space where you can feel heard, understood, and empowered to move toward meaningful change from an eclectic evidenced based approach that promotes hope, stability, and wellness, including faith-based perspective.
I specialize in working with adults and older adults experiencing anxiety, depression, grief and loss, intimate relationship conflict, and couples counseling.I believes my purpose is to assist individuals to live life healthy and with hope.
I have extensive experience with substance abuse, holding a previous Certified Alcohol Drug Certificate (CADC) in Illinois, previous certification as an Emergency Services Prescreener with mental health, certified as a Clinical Trauma Professional, trained in level 2 of the Gottman Couples Method, experienced with anxiety, depression, grief & loss, and intimate relationship conflict. I received an outstanding excellent therapy award in 2021 and am committed to lives being changed. I am inspired daily by my husband, two adult children, and in love with my five grandchildren. In my spare time I love exercising, running miles, and reading educational/spiritual literature to keep myself sharp to assist others in sharpen themselves.

Many of my clients come to therapy feeling overwhelmed, misunderstood, or stuck in patterns that no longer serve them — even when they appear “high-functioning” on the outside.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Mental Health Therapist in Charlottesville, VA
Finding therapists in Charlottesville starts with knowing what kind of support you want. You may be looking for therapy in Charlottesville for anxiety, depression, grief, life transitions, relationship concerns, or work stress. As you compare therapists, look for training and listed specialties that match your needs, such as cognitive behavioral therapy, eye movement desensitization and reprocessing therapy, trauma-informed care, or couples counseling. A therapist’s profile can also help you understand their style, what sessions may focus on, and whether their experience fits what you are looking for.
In a smaller city like Charlottesville, local appointment options may be more limited than in larger Virginia markets. Virtual sessions can expand your search while still letting you work with a therapist licensed in Virginia. As you narrow your options, consider whether you prefer in-person care near Downtown, Belmont, or nearby neighborhoods, or the flexibility of virtual appointments. It also helps to check appointment times, whether the therapist is accepting new patients, and whether they offer a free phone consultation. Reading bios before you book can give you a clearer sense of communication style, therapy approach, and fit.
Therapy in Charlottesville can be a significant cost without insurance. Using in-network coverage is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and understand what you may pay before care begins. Headway makes that process easier by helping you find therapists in Charlottesville, VA who take insurance, show available appointment times, and provide estimated costs before you book. You can compare profiles, review specialties, and book directly when you are 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.
