Hi, I’m Nicole, a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) and Licensed Substance Abuse Treatment Provider (LSATP) with over 25 years of experience in behavioral health. I hold a Master’s degree in Counseling and Psychology and have worked with individuals navigating a wide range of emotional and life challenges.

I specialize in working with teens, college students and

adults experiencing anxiety, stress, burnout, life transitions, relationship challenges, trauma, and substance use. I am also passionate about supporting women through major life shifts, including boundary work, identity changes, and wellness-related concerns.

My approach is practical, supportive, and direct. I provide a safe space where you can be honest, gain clarity, and develop tools you can actually use in your daily life.

Many of my clients are used to being strong for others but are now feeling overwhelmed or stuck. Together, we focus on building healthier boundaries, improving communication, and creating balance.

If you’re ready to do the work, I’m here to support you.

If you’re feeling overwhelmed by anxiety, stuck in relationship patterns, or trying to make sense of experiences that have shaped you, therapy can help you understand what’s happening beneath the surface and create meaningful change. I’m a licensed clinical psychologist in Virginia with a PsyD in clinical psychology, and I work with adults navigating anxiety, relationship concerns, trauma, OCD, and ADHD. I specialize in helping people understand patterns that may have developed as ways of coping but are no longer serving them.

I believe you shouldn’t have to have everything figured out before coming to therapy. My experience across outpatient, inpatient, and community mental health settings has given me a broad perspective on care and the ability to meet people where they are. Whether you’re struggling with anxiety, navigating a difficult relationship, processing past experiences, or feeling stuck in patterns you don’t fully understand, we’ll work together to make sense of what’s happening and identify meaningful ways forward. My goal is to create a space where you feel genuinely understood while also feeling supported and gently challenged to grow. If you’re looking for a therapist who will take the time to understand the bigger picture, not just your symptoms, I’d be glad to help you better understand yourself, your relationships, and the patterns that may be keeping you stuck.

Hi, I'm Erin, a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Virginia and a Doctoral Candidate in Counselor Education and Supervision (CES). I have experience working with individuals across the lifespan and have specialized training in trauma, substance use disorders, crisis intervention, and problematic sexual behaviors.

My clinical experience includes working with individuals navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship concerns, life transitions, grief, substance use, and recovery. I also have experience providing assessment and treatment for individuals with problematic sexual behaviors, an area in which many clients struggle to find knowledgeable and nonjudgmental care.

In addition to working with the general adult population, I enjoy supporting counselors, graduate counseling students, and other helping professionals who are navigating the unique challenges of caring for others while maintaining their own well-being.

As both a practicing clinician and counselor educator, I am passionate about promoting wellness, professional growth, and compassionate, evidence-informed care.

Therapist

Virtual & in-person • Covington, VA


Hi, I’m Bethany Hagy, a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) with about six years of experience working with children, teens, and adults. I earned my Master of Arts in Professional Counseling from Liberty University in May 2021.

I work with clients ages 6 through adulthood, supporting a wide range of concerns including trauma, anxiety, depression, ADHD, anger, impulse control, relationship challenges, and life or career transitions. Whether you’re navigating something specific or just feeling stuck, I aim to meet you where you are.

At the core of my work is the belief that everyone deserves to feel seen, heard, and supported. I strive to be a voice for those who feel like they don’t have one and a steady presence for those who need someone in their corner.

I offer both in-person and telehealth sessions to make therapy as accessible and comfortable as possible.

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.

As a therapist, I believe in your story and your individual experience. A space that is safe, comfortable, & free of judgement is essential for your success. It is important that you are in control of your own therapeutic experience, and I believe my role as a therapist is to serve as a guide & emotional support for you through your own journey. To provide a more authentic process and promote psycho-education, I aim to actively engage with you through discussions and person-centered support. “Pain is real, but so is hope”, and that is the main goal of my therapeutic approach: instill hope.
