Hello, and welcome! I'm Sakura Pate, a trauma-informed therapist dedicated to creating a safe, supportive, and nonjudgmental space where clients feel seen, heard, and empowered. I became a social worker in 2013, supporting individuals through a wide range of life challenges across community and behavioral health settings. After earning my Master of Social Work in 2023, I expanded my practice to provide individual and couples counseling, combining years of social work experience with evidence-based, client-centered, and trauma-informed care.
I work with adults and couples experiencing a variety of emotional, relational, and life challenges. Whether you're feeling overwhelmed, navigating a major life transition, struggling in your relationships, processing past experiences, or simply looking to better understand yourself, I provide a collaborative space to explore what matters most to you. My approach is tailored to each individual, recognizing that every person's experiences, strengths, and goals are unique. I also provide LGBTQIA+ affirming care and am committed to creating an inclusive environment where every client feels respected, valued, and safe to show up as their authentic self.
I believe healing happens through connection, self-awareness, and compassion. Whether you're seeking support for a specific concern, personal growth, or greater fulfillment in your relationships, I'm honored to walk alongside you as you build resilience, strengthen meaningful connections, and create lasting, positive change.
Hello, I am Anna. I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker who has been working in private practice since 2013, and I graduated with my MSW in 2006. I specialize in anxiety and panic disorders, Bipolar and mood disorders, Life transitions, LGBTQIA+ needs and Women's issues. I welcome all types of relationship dynamics in my sessions.
As a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Virginia, I have worked in the mental health field for over 10 years. Currently, I provide individual and family therapy services to teenagers and adults experiencing mood disorders, anxiety, and trauma, as well as with LBGTQ+ and trans/gender non-conforming (TGNC) folks seeking supportive and affirming care.
I work mainly with college-aged individuals, and specialize in working with individuals from adolescence to early adulthood who struggle with feeling that they are too much or not enough, who have been affected by trauma, and around issues relating to identity, attachment, grief, dysregulated emotions, self-esteem, and relational conflicts.
My name is Jericia Johnson and I am a Licensed Professional Counselor with over two decades experience in community mental health. I hope my practice working with me provides you a safe space to unbox, unload, sort through and discard tough emotions, pain spots, or soul injuries that are preventing you from moving forward on your journey.
I am a Licensed Professional Counselor who focuses on treating acute and relational trauma with teens, individuals, and couples. I have been working as a psychotherapist for over 15 years. I believe that we heal in relationship to another, rather than trying to do it all alone. My style is warm, attentive and an active participant in your healing journey.
My name is Dr. Julia Catlin, and I am so glad you’re here. I am a licensed psychotherapist based in Las Vegas, NV, and I provide psychotherapy via telehealth throughout Nevada and Virginia. My passion: creating a space for meaningful, transformative psychotherapy. I have been in the mental health field since 2013, but in the last few years, I have focused on providing treatment to military veterans and dependents, as well as industry professionals and performing artists.
I help couples build deeper connections and enhance eroticism in their lives. I studied to obtain my Certification in Sex Therapy from the American Association of Sex Educators, Counselors and Therapists. My work focuses on a number of sexual health and mental health issues, including desire discrepancies, physical concerns that limit one's ability to enjoy preferred sexual activities, erotic recovery after infidelity and/or trauma, establishment of monogamy agreements, kink-affirming care and assistance to co-create polyamorous relationship agreements. I also see clients for more generalist concerns including anxiety, depression, the general stress of living in the world today. Some of the concerns I help couples and poly folks with include: communication difficulties and strategies for interpersonal effectiveness in relationship, including coaching on scripted communication strategies; enhancement of desire, play and eroticism; recovery from infidelity; integration of kink/poly dynamics.
