I'm not a regular therapist—I'm a cool therapist. You'll likely find me using humor in sessions because it's one of my favorite coping skills (when it's appropriate). I strive to create a warm, supportive, and nonjudgmental environment where you can feel comfortable being yourself.
Helping others has always been my passion, and I love supporting clients as they create meaningful changes in their lives. I also value learning and believe that knowledge can be a powerful tool for growth, so don't be surprised if I recommend a book or two during our time together.
I specialize in working with clients experiencing anxiety, ADHD, PTSD, substance use concerns, burnout, and adjustment disorders or other life transitions. I also love supporting new moms as they navigate the perinatal period and the unique challenges that can come with it.
Feeling overwhelmed, lost, or unsure where to start? You've come to the right place.
With over 17 years of clinical experience across a variety of settings, I specialize in creating a warm, judgment-free space where you can explore your concerns at your own pace. Whether you arrive with specific goals in mind, need help identifying them, or simply need somewhere to exhale.
I work with children, adults, couples, and families navigating a wide range of challenges, including depression, anxiety, behavioral concerns, relationship difficulties, and life transitions. Whatever brings you here, I bring deep clinical expertise, genuine compassion, and a commitment to helping you move toward the mental health and life you deserve.
Over eleven years I have worked with a wide range of clients, which means very little of what you bring will be unfamiliar to me. Maybe you are managing anxiety that puts you in fight or flight, a low mood that will not lift, the demands of ADHD, or a health condition that has quietly reshaped your life. Whatever brings you here, I start from what is already working
in your life rather than from what is broken. You do not need the right words or a clear diagnosis to begin. If that sounds like the support you are looking for, I would be glad to hear from you.
I specialize in helping adolescents and adults realize their maximum potential by assisting with overcoming struggles, stress, and trauma.
Hello! I’m Kody, a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Fredericksburg, Virginia. I work with adults and couples who feel overwhelmed, stuck, or disconnected, and who want help navigating stress, life transitions, or relationship struggles. My goal is to create a safe, judgment-free space where you feel heard, validated, and supported. Through a collaborative approach, I offer honest feedback, encouragement, and support as we work toward your goals.
For more than twenty years, I have had the privilege of walking alongside adolescents, adults, and couples during some of the most difficult and meaningful seasons of their lives. I believe that sometimes it can be difficult to see beyond the darkness in front of us. My role is to listen without judgement while helping you find your way toward the light again.
Hello my name is Monica Whitlock, Welcome! I strive to embrace, empower, and uplift clients on their journey into all avenues of wellness. I have over 13 years of experience working with children on up until adults.
I am a Psychiatric-Mental Health Nurse Practitioner with more than 16 years of experience in psychiatric nursing. I graduated cum laude from Walden University in 2022, where I completed advanced training in the assessment, diagnosis, and treatment of mental health conditions.
My clinical specialties include attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder, post-traumatic stress disorder, mood disorders, bipolar disorder, schizophrenia, major depressive disorder, and generalized anxiety disorder. I am committed to providing compassionate, evidence-based, and patient-centered care while creating a supportive environment where individuals feel heard, respected, and actively involved in their treatment.
My goal is to collaborate with each patient to develop an individualized treatment plan that promotes emotional wellness, stability, recovery, and an improved quality of life.
