They say you can’t choose your family, but you can choose your therapist, and I promise I’m a much better listener than your Uncle Chip. I’m Matt, and I’ve spent the last ten years helping people navigate the 'plot twists' of life. With a master's degree from Catholic University and a specialty in anxiety, relationships, and life adjustments, I’ve learned that while I can't wave a magic wand to fix your problems, I’m excellent at helping you find where you dropped yours. Let's get to work... no promises there won't be more metaphors down the road though.

I'm Ji-Hae Park, a licensed clinical social worker and certified hypnotherapist based in Herndon, Virginia, with 31 years of experience working with adults navigating trauma, PTSD, and major life transitions. I'm Korean-American, and I understand the particular ways that cultural background, identity, and family history intersect with how we process pain — whether or not that's what brings you in. My practice is built for people who are ready to go deeper than coping. I see clients both in person in Northern Virginia and virtually throughout the state, and I accept Aetna and Cigna/Evernorth.

Welcome! I'm David Caldwell, a psychotherapist and Clinical Social Worker who works with adults, couples and families in Reston, VA. I have extensive training and experience working with individuals navigating stress, conflict, depression, relationship distress, grief, anxiety, social discomfort and anxiety.

Area of focus include:

  • Anxiety and panic attacks
  • Depression
  • Grief and loss
  • Relationship distress
  • Couples counseling
  • Stress and burnout
  • Parenting challenges
  • Life transitions
  • Family conflict

Dr. Joy Mwendwa

Therapist

Virtual & in-person • 20 mi away • Centreville, VA


I believe counseling should be a place where you feel seen, heard, and supported. Many of the clients I work with are navigating important life transitions—work, school, marriage, family relationships, cultural identity, leadership stress, faith questions, or the pressures of professional life. I especially enjoy working with individuals, couples, and families from diverse backgrounds, including professional women, TCK, MKs, PKs, Ministry families, African and Black and brown families, diaspora families, international professionals, and people who desire to integrate their faith into the counseling process.

My goal is to create a space that is both compassionate and practical. I want clients to feel safe bringing their whole story into the room—faith, culture, family dynamics, and personal struggles—while also leaving sessions with tools that help them grow and move forward. Whether we are working through relationship challenges, stress, anxiety, or life direction, I approach therapy as a partnership where we work together toward healing and clarity.

Renata Creech

Therapist

Virtual & in-person • 21 mi away • Haymarket, VA


You may be someone who usually handles things well. You are responsible, capable, and used to figuring things out—but relationships can bring up reactions that are much harder to manage.

I work with adults who find themselves overthinking conversations, struggling with boundaries, questioning their decisions, repeating painful relationship patterns, or feeling stuck between what they want and what others expect from them.

With over 10 years of experience, I offer a warm, direct, and down-to-earth approach to therapy. I will listen carefully, but I will also ask questions, notice patterns, and help you understand what keeps getting in the way of the relationships and life you want.

Ethan Kaste

Therapist

Virtual & in-person • 23 mi away • Fairfax, VA


Hi, I’m Ethan

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) with an M.S. in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Divine Mercy University. My training and experience focus on trauma, Emotion-Focused Therapy, and Person-Centered Therapy.

I believe people are naturally inclined to grow and thrive. Emotions are not just things to manage; they are strengths we can use to live well. I value each client’s story and creating a safe space to share it. I draw on attachment-based ideas, which say people heal best in secure, connected relationships—neither fully dependent nor completely independent, but interdependent.

I work with depression, anxiety, acute/chronic/complex trauma, and relationship distress. I treat individuals of all ages, as well as couples and families.

Credentials and training:

  • Certified Clinical Traumatologist
  • Level 1 and 2 Emotion-Focused Family Therapy
  • Core skills in Emotion-Focused Couples Therapy

Clients should know that I am committed to providing a safe, supportive, and judgment-free space where they can openly discuss their concerns. I understand that seeking mental health treatment can be difficult, and I strive to build trusting relationships through empathy, respect, and active listening.

As a Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner, I believe in treating the whole person rather than just symptoms. I work collaboratively with clients to develop individualized treatment plans that align with their goals, values, and lifestyle. My approach combines evidence-based medication management with education, supportive therapy, and practical coping strategies to promote lasting wellness.

Clients can expect me to be compassionate, approachable, and dedicated to helping them navigate life's challenges while empowering them to take an active role in their mental health journey.

Find the right therapist for you

Headway makes it easy to find support for your mental health — from finding the right provider, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in Leesburg

Searching for therapists in Leesburg starts with finding someone whose experience matches what you want support with. Therapists may focus on concerns like anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, grief, trauma, or life transitions. As you compare options, look for a therapist whose listed specialties, approach, and background align with your needs. Bios can also help you understand whether a therapist uses approaches such as cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, or trauma-informed care.

In a smaller city like Leesburg, local in-person appointments may be more limited than in larger nearby areas. Virtual therapy can expand your options while still connecting you with a therapist licensed in Virginia. As you narrow your search, consider appointment availability, whether the therapist is accepting new clients, session format, and whether a free phone consultation is offered. Reading profiles before you book can help you compare communication style, areas of focus, and what to expect in a first session.

Therapy in Leesburg 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 search for therapists who accept a wide range of insurance plans, verify your benefits, and see an estimated out-of-pocket cost before you book. You can browse therapists in Leesburg, review bios, and book directly when you’re ready.

1 Cost may vary based on your location, age, and insurance coverage.
