Hello! Thank you for taking a moment to explore my page. My name is Patricia Clark, a Licensed Professional Counselor in Virginia, a Certified Clinical Trauma Professional, a doctoral candidate in traumatology, and the founder of D.I.V.A. Counseling & Consulting. For more than 10 years, I have walked alongside individuals, couples, families, and organizations as they heal from the weight of what life has handed them. If you have been doing everything right on the outside, showing up, pushing through, holding it all together, but quietly feeling exhausted, disconnected, or like you have lost yourself somewhere along the way, you are not alone. What you are experiencing is common today.

Hello my name is Monica Whitlock, Welcome! I strive to embrace, empower, and uplift clients on their journey into all avenues of wellness. I have over 13 years of experience working with children on up until adults.
I am a Clinical Social Worker with a graduate degree from the University of Maryland School of Social Work. For the past two decades, I have been advocating for individuals and families struggling with mental health concerns. My work has primarily focused on trauma, and I have provided therapeutic services to a diverse array of individuals of all ages. I am committed to helping people overcome eating disorders, substance abuse, depression, anxiety, trauma, and other stressors that impact our lives.
Choosing a therapist is a deeply personal decision. People often come to therapy feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or tired of talking in circles—and they want real change, not just support. That’s where my work is different.
I am a solution-focused, no-nonsense therapist who believes therapy should be both compassionate and effective. My style is warm, grounded, and direct. I help clients quickly identify what’s truly driving their stress or dissatisfaction, calm emotional overwhelm, and move forward with clarity and confidence.
Clients often tell me they appreciate my ability to be both deeply supportive and refreshingly honest—offering perspective, guidance, and direction while maintaining a safe, respectful space.
Personally, I have a lot of life experience and a naturally positive perspective that helps guide my work and intentional focus. I am a mother of five, married with a blended family, step mother of two, grandmother, an equestrian, boater and aviator.
Educationally, I earned my Master of Social Work from Florida State University in 1991 and Licensed as a Clinical Social Worker in 1994. I have worked in Sports Broadcadting and Marketing, Medical Device Sales, Business and Behavioral Health. I have certifications in Critical Incident Stress Debriefing, Executive Leadership, and Hypnotherapy.
Hello,
My name is Keisha and I specialize in treating various issues. I appreciate the opportunity to provide my services to you. I create a safe space for my clients, free of judgement and full of understanding.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Postpartum Therapist in Virginia Beach
Searching for postpartum therapists in Virginia Beach starts with finding someone whose experience matches what you want support with. Postpartum care can include support for postpartum depression, postpartum anxiety, birth-related stress, identity shifts, and relationship strain. Some people also look for a pregnancy therapist or counselor for pregnancy before or after delivery. As you review profiles, look for therapists who list perinatal mental health, maternal mental health, or a PMH-C credential, which can signal specialized training in postpartum support.
Virginia Beach offers a range of local options, and the right fit may depend on both specialty and logistics. New parents may need flexible scheduling, virtual sessions, or appointment times that work around infant care, physical recovery, and changing routines. In-person care may be a good fit if you prefer an office setting, while virtual therapy can expand access to postpartum depression therapists near you when travel is harder. Read therapist bios before booking to understand their approach, communication style, availability, and whether they offer a free phone consultation.
Therapy in Virginia Beach can be a significant expense without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and make ongoing care easier to plan for. Headway helps you search for postpartum therapists who are accepting new patients, compare profiles, verify your insurance, and see your estimated cost before you book, so you can find someone who matches your needs, accepts your plan, and offers the support you’re looking for.
