Stephanie Geiger

Therapist

Virtual • Charlottesville, VA


I work with individuals, couples, and families of all ages. I have a Masters in Clinical Health Psychology and a Masters in Nutrition/Dietetics, which helps lend to a holistic approach to my work with clients. I commonly work with health behavioral change, anxiety, depression, eating disorders, ADHD, OCD, and relationship change. My treatment approach utilizes a biopsychosocial lense in long-term therapy based in psychodynamic, strengths-based, and integrative work in overall health. I utilize coping skills from CBT, DBT, ACT, and Mindfulness. I incorporated life-skills such a assertiveness, boundaries, and career.

I love the work that I do and the healing relationships I have been able to foster with my clients. I believe that therapy is a form of self-care and I want to be an advocate of that for my clients. I welcome anyone who thinks they may want some support, whether long-term or short-term to reach out to me and set up a brief phone consultation.

Happy patient looking away

Find the right counselor for your family

Headway makes it easier to find family-focused support — from finding the right provider, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Family Therapist in Virginia Beach

Searching for family therapists in Virginia Beach starts with finding someone who understands the concerns your family wants to address. Family therapy can support families navigating parenting conflict, adolescent struggles, blended family dynamics, communication patterns, and stress across generations. Family therapists are trained to work with the relational system, not just one person, so review each therapist’s listed specialties, training, and approach to see whether their experience matches your needs.

In Virginia Beach, your options may include therapists with offices near home, school, or work, as well as therapists who offer virtual appointments across Virginia. For family counseling, it also helps to ask how sessions are structured. Some appointments may include the full family, while others may focus on parents, siblings, couples, or individual family members. Before booking, read therapist bios for details on availability, session format, communication style, and whether a free phone consultation is offered.

Therapy in Virginia Beach 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 family therapists in Virginia Beach who are accepting new patients, review detailed bios, check estimated out-of-pocket costs, and book directly when you’re ready.

If anyone in your family is experiencing or worried about abuse, threats, or coercion, joint family or couples therapy usually isn't the right starting point — individual support is safer. The Childhelp National Child Abuse Hotline (1-800-422-4453) and National Domestic Violence Hotline (1-800-799-7233, or text START to 88788\) can help you think through next steps.
