I received my bachelor's from James Madison University and a Master of Arts from Lesley University in Expressive Therapy.
Hi, I’m Emileigh! I’m a Licensed Professional Counselor who has worked in the mental health field since 2018 with children, teens, and adults of all genders, backgrounds, and identities. I hold a Bachelor’s degree in Psychology and a Master’s degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Regent University, and I have also served as a Clinical Director and supervised counseling interns. I believe strongly in dignity, cultural humility, and creating a practice where people from all backgrounds and identities feel valued and understood; outside of work, I love coffee, sunshine, the beach, dancing, and spending time with family and friends.
I have over 40 years of experience in mental health practice. I believe that we work together to help you be the best version of yourself. I am trauma therapy certified, anger management certified and work with teens and adults. I specialize in anxiety, depression and trauma issues as well as Adult Children of Alcoholics. We are a team working together to help you improve your life situations
I believe that we are all a work in progress, including myself. I want therapy to feel safe, productive and supportive.
With over three decades of dedicated psychiatric experience, I bring a unique, comprehensive perspective to mental health care. My journey spans more than 30 years in the field, including 18 years as an advance practice Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner and adult medical prescriber. Having cared for individuals of all ages during my foundational years as a registered nurse, I understand the deep complexities of human development, behavioral health and substance abuse disorders. My passion for elevating patient care has allowed me to lead, mentor, and collaborate with teams of nurses across multiple states and healthcare systems. This expansive network keeps me at the forefront of modern, evidence-based treatments and diverse clinical practices. I am deeply committed to empowering my patients through personalized, empathetic and expert care. Whether you are navigating a life transition, managing a chronic mental health condition, or seeking support for substance recovery, my wealth of knowledge ensures you receive top-tier, specialized guidance. Together we will build a tailored path toward lasting wellness, balance and healing.
Hi hi! I’m Kaitlyn, an LCSW in Virginia specializing in grief therapy and anxiety management. I spend my days in a school division providing mental health services to rural kiddos, and then I come home to chase my own kiddos. Providing therapy brings me back to myself, as strange as that sounds. I am fueled by helping others!
I have a wide range of experience in various clinical and therapeutic settings. I specialize in working with children and adults with depression/anxiety, trauma, grief/loss, serious mental illness, lgbtq+, crisis intervention, intellectual and developmental disabilities (including Autism Spectrum Disorders), as well as traumatic brain injuries. I primarily enjoy working best with youth or adults in individual therapy sessions. I am NOT currently accepting any new COUPLE THERAPY clients at this time.
I'm here to offer a safe, confidential space where you can explore your inner world, address challenges, and begin the process of profound healing and growth.
To support our work together, I have pursued specialized training in several transformative approaches:
- CCTP-II (Level II Trauma Certified): I have advanced training in trauma-informed care and treatment modalities. This certification ensures I am equipped to safely and effectively address the impact of past trauma, including dissociative disorders, helping you process difficult experiences and move toward post-traumatic growth.
- C-DBT (Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) Certified): DBT provides practical, concrete skills for managing intense emotions, improving relationships, living in the present moment, and tolerating distress. It is highly effective for those struggling with emotional dysregulation and interpersonal challenges.
• Internal Family Systems (IFS- informed): This powerful, evidence-based model views the mind as a system of "parts" (e.g., a critical part, a vulnerable part, a protective part). IFS helps you develop a compassionate, curious relationship with these different facets of yourself, leading to greater internal harmony and wholeness.
I'm April — a Licensed Clinical Social Worker who has worked alongside people in some of the hardest chapters of their lives: crisis moments in emergency settings, school hallways with overwhelmed teenagers, and outpatient rooms where families were trying to figure out how to be in the same room again. That range of experience has shaped how I work. I know that anxiety looks different in a 15-year-old than it does in a 40-year-old. I know that couples who love each other can still feel like strangers. And I know that healing isn't linear — it takes time, trust, and the right support.
I specialize in anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship and marital concerns, family conflict, parenting challenges, life transitions, and emotional regulation. I work with children, teens, adults, couples, and families. For clients who want it, I also offer faith-integrated counseling that weaves Christian beliefs and values into the therapeutic process — thoughtfully, ethically, and at your pace.
Starting therapy can feel overwhelming, but you don't have to face life's challenges alone. Whether you're struggling with anxiety, depression, ADHD, trauma, stress, or a major life transition, I provide a warm, supportive, and nonjudgmental space where you can feel heard and understood.
I'm Sorlyz, a bilingual (English/Spanish) Licensed Therapist with over eight years of experience helping children, adolescents, and adults. My background includes extensive work with individuals who have experienced severe trauma, as well as first-generation and Spanish-speaking clients navigating cultural identity, family expectations, and life's many demands. This experience allows me to connect with people from diverse backgrounds and tailor therapy to each person's unique needs.
Together, we'll build practical coping skills, strengthen resilience, and create meaningful, lasting change.
Hi, I’m Johnathan, and I believe therapy is most effective when you feel genuinely heard, understood, and supported. I strive to create a welcoming, nonjudgmental space where we can work together to navigate life’s challenges and build on your strengths. Over the past 10 years, I’ve had the privilege of working in a variety of mental health settings, including inpatient care, substance use treatment, school-based therapy, outpatient therapy, and with first responders. I am also trained in EMDR and have experience helping clients work through trauma, anxiety, relationship challenges, and other life difficulties. Whether you’re feeling stuck or seeking personal growth, my goal is to help you find healing, hope, and greater alignment in your life.

Factors to Consider When Choosing an ADHD Therapist in Norfolk
Searching for ADHD therapists in Norfolk starts with knowing what kind of support you want. Therapists can help with executive function, organization, time management, emotional regulation, and patterns that affect school, work, or relationships. Some therapists use approaches like cognitive behavioral therapy for ADHD, skills-based support, or coaching-informed strategies. Medication management is different and is handled by psychiatrists or other qualified prescribers. Adults, teens, and children may also need different types of ADHD support, so review each therapist’s listed specialties, age groups, and approach before you book.
In a mid-size city like Norfolk, your options may include therapists near downtown, Ghent, Ocean View, or nearby Hampton Roads communities, along with virtual appointments across Virginia. Virtual care can expand your choices if local appointment times are limited or if you want a therapist with experience in both ADHD and common co-occurring concerns like anxiety or depression. As you compare therapists, look at appointment availability, whether they offer a free phone consultation, and how they describe session structure. A therapist’s bio can help you understand how they work with ADHD day to day, not just whether ADHD appears on their specialty list.
Therapy in Norfolk 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 makes that process easier by helping you find ADHD therapists who are accepting new patients, match your preferences, and accept a wide range of insurance plans. You can enter your insurance details to see estimated out-of-pocket costs, compare therapist bios, and book directly when you’re ready.
If you're already taking psychiatric medication and considering switching providers, talk to your current prescriber before changing or stopping any medication — most psychiatric medications shouldn't be stopped abruptly. Anyone experiencing thoughts of self-harm or in acute crisis should call 988 or go to the nearest emergency department rather than wait for an outpatient appointment.
