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!
As a Licensed Professional Counselor, I believe in prioritizing our mental health. My goal is make therapy feel approachable, empowering, and warm. I will meet you where you are on your life journey and collaborate with you on meeting your goals.
I'm a licensed therapist who works with people navigating anxiety, life transitions, and the general chaos that can come with being a human, especially during big seasons of change like parenthood, relationship shifts, graduations, or just feeling like you're not quite where you thought you'd be.
I'm warm, honest, and very much a real person in the room with you. Therapy with me is supportive, but also practical and grounded in real life.
I am experienced in treating PPD/PPA, pregnancy loss, birth trauma, and related concerns. I am trained in EMDR with a focus on the perinatal period. I enjoy working with parents to support positive attachments with their children, navigate through challenges, and understand developmental stages and concerns.
I also work with those experiencing difficulties related to ADHD, life transitions, anxiety, depression, and trauma.
Hi, I’m Marlane.
Taking the first step toward therapy can feel overwhelming, but you don’t have to face life’s challenges alone. I provide a safe, supportive space for individuals and families navigating stress, trauma, emotional challenges, and substance use concerns.
With over five years of experience supporting clients in crisis, I use a collaborative approach tailored to your unique needs. Through evidence-based approaches such as CBT and trauma-focused CBT, we will work together to build coping skills, improve emotional wellness, strengthen communication, and create meaningful change.
My goal is to help you feel empowered, resilient, and confident as you move forward.
Hi - I'm Gina, a licensed LCSW in Illinois with 15 years of professional work experience and a MSW from the University of Chicago. I have experience in helping clients (teens and adults) with stress, anxiety, chronic illnesses, midlife crisis, trauma, abuse, & coping with grief and loss. I use several treatment modalities to include Cognitive Behavioral, Trauma Informed Therapy, Solution-Focused Therapy, and Emotion-Focused Counseling. I also offer clinical supervision.
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.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in Fairfax
Searching for therapists in Fairfax starts with knowing what kind of support you want and which therapist is trained for that area. People often look for therapy for anxiety, depression, relationship concerns, grief, work stress, or life transitions. As you compare therapists, look for specialties and approaches that match your needs, such as cognitive behavioral therapy, trauma-informed care, family therapy, or solution-focused therapy. A therapist’s bio can also help you understand their style, what they focus on, and what a first session may involve.
Fairfax has many mental health professionals, but local office availability may vary by schedule, neighborhood, and specialty. Virtual therapy can help expand your options across Virginia, especially if nearby appointment times are limited or your calendar makes in-person visits harder to arrange. As you narrow your search, consider whether a therapist is accepting new clients, offers appointments that fit your schedule, and provides a free phone consultation. Reading profiles before booking can help you compare communication style, clinical focus, and session format in one place.
Therapy in Fairfax can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and understand what you may pay before care begins. Headway helps you find therapists who match your preferences, accept your plan, and are accepting new patients. You can enter your insurance details, see an estimated cost before booking, review therapist bios, and book directly when you’re ready.
If anyone in your family is experiencing or worried about abuse, threats, or coercion, joint family or couples therapy usually isn't the right starting point — individual support is safer. The Childhelp National Child Abuse Hotline (1-800-422-4453) and National Domestic Violence Hotline (1-800-799-7233, or text START to 88788\) can help you think through next steps.
