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.
I am a board certified psychiatric nurse practitioner for over 5 years, and I am also a board certified adult nurse practitioner for over 12 years. I began my nursing career graduating from university of MD with my bachelors, and then attended Johns Hopkins University for my masters. I decided to further my education by attending Brandman University to obtain my Doctorate and psychiatric mental health certification in 2018.
I have spent most of my life helping people be the best versions of themselves, in one capacity or another. As a trauma-responsive counselor, I have several years of professional experience working with adults dealing with a variety of mental health issues (e.g., anxiety, depression, addiction, loss, life transitions, relationship issues, etc.). What is most important to my client is most important to me. I strive to help clients feel safe, heard, and empowered to navigate whatever life handles them.

Factors to Consider When Choosing an OCD Therapist in Richmond
Finding OCD therapists in Richmond starts with looking for training that matches obsessive-compulsive disorder care. OCD can involve intrusive thoughts, checking behaviors, contamination fears, reassurance seeking, or mental rituals. Exposure and response prevention, often called ERP, is one therapy approach some clinicians use when supporting people with OCD, and not all therapists are trained in it. As you compare therapists, look for ERP, cognitive behavioral therapy for OCD, or OCD-specific experience in their bios.
Richmond offers a strong mix of therapy options, but the right match depends on more than location. You may prefer an office near downtown Richmond, the Fan, or surrounding areas like Chesterfield, or you may want the added flexibility of virtual appointments. For OCD care, it helps to compare therapists who list OCD as an area of focus with those who describe specific ERP training or structured OCD care. Review each bio for approach, availability, session format, and whether a free phone consultation is offered.
Therapy in Richmond can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs, and Headway helps you see your estimated out-of-pocket cost before you book. You can search for Richmond therapists who focus on OCD, filter by insurance and appointment format, read bios, and book directly when you’re ready.
