I'm a board-certified psychiatrist with over 20 years of experience in both general psychiatry and addiction medicine. My background spans a wide range of mental health conditions — from anxiety and depression to bipolar disorder and substance use — and I bring a deeply holistic perspective to every patient I work with. I offer telehealth care with flexible scheduling, including early morning appointments starting at 7:30am for those who need care before their workday begins.
I provide evidence-based therapy with a strong focus on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy. I work with adults experiencing anxiety, depression, stress, and adjustment difficulties, helping clients develop practical coping skills, improve insight, and create meaningful behavioral change.

With over 17 years of clinical experience across a variety of settings, I specialize in creating a warm, judgment-free space where you can explore your concerns at your own pace. Whether you arrive with specific goals in mind, need help identifying them, or simply need somewhere to exhale.
I work with children, adults, couples, and families navigating a wide range of challenges, including depression, anxiety, behavioral concerns, relationship difficulties, and life transitions.

I'm Catie Eager, a Licensed Professional Counselor, National Certified Counselor, and Certified Narcissistic Abuse Treatment Clinician practicing virtually in New Jersey, Washington D.C., and Virginia. I founded Lotus Mental Health Counseling to fill a gap I kept seeing: brilliant, capable people destroyed by relationships that quietly dismantled their sense of self.
I truly believe each person has the power to overcome any challenge they face but sometimes, we need a little guidance. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor, it is my goal to help each person achieve their goals. I have over 10 years of experience working with many populations and I am trained in EMDR therapy .
In therapy with me you will find that I emphasize acceptance of emotions, reframing negative thinking, and offering self-grace. I try to help you dig deeper to get the root issue that is causing you to be different than the way you want to be.
We are talking about you and your life, things that matter so I am open and non-judging, relaxed, and very real.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in Richmond
Searching for therapists in Richmond starts with finding someone whose experience matches the care you’re looking for. People seek therapy for many reasons, including anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, grief, trauma, and life transitions. As you compare therapists in Richmond, VA, look for listed specialties, therapy styles, and populations served. A therapist’s profile can help you see whether they use approaches such as cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, or trauma-informed care, and whether their background fits your needs.
Richmond offers a range of therapy options across neighborhoods like the Fan District, Jackson Ward, Church Hill, and nearby areas. For some people, an in-person office close to work, school, or home may make appointments easier to keep. Others may prefer virtual therapy in Richmond, VA, especially if scheduling around commute time, caregiving, or a busy calendar. When narrowing your search, check whether a therapist is accepting new patients, has appointment times that fit your schedule, and offers a free phone consultation. Reading bios before booking can also show how a therapist describes their communication style and what sessions may feel like.
Therapy in Richmond can be a significant expense without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and understand what you may pay before starting care. Headway helps you find Richmond therapy options by showing therapists who match your preferences, accept a wide range of insurance plans, and offer upfront cost estimates after your benefits are verified.
