Addiction therapists & psychiatrists in Williamsburg, VA

Hi! I'm so glad you're here! :) I know how overwhelming and intimidating it can be to look for help. A safe place and a non-judgmental/unbiased ear are highly coveted and sought after in today's society. Therapy can address infinite issues and struggles that arise in daily life. I know it worked for me-- let it work for you!

I graduated from Northwestern University and have worked with individuals of all backgrounds and ages. I live in Ohio and am licensed in Ohio, Arizona and Virginia.

I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with over eight years of experience providing therapy in both English and Spanish. I work with children, adolescents, adults, couples, and families, specializing in trauma, stress, and depression.

I strive to create a warm, supportive space where you feel heard and understood. My approach is collaborative and tailored to your needs, helping you build insight, develop coping skills, and move toward meaningful change.

Whether you’re navigating a difficult time or working through past experiences, I’m here to support you every step of the way.

I have more than 25 years of experience assessing and treating adolescents, adults, and families. While I appreciate numerous approaches, my patients have stated that I provide a melding of both direct and indirect styles. In other words, my standard of care is challenging and supportive. More often than not, you won’t leave a session wondering what’s next.

Whether you are struggling with the far-reaching impact of past trauma, relationship challenges, anxiety, depression, PTSD, or other ongoing health issue or simply wanting to invest in a bit of self-exploration and growth, I am so glad that you have begun your search for the best facilitator in that journey. I believe in meeting people where they are and allowing you to set your own pace for healing. I look forward to assisting on your healing journey in any way that I can.

I’m Dr. Gina Sissoko, a licensed clinical psychologist passionate about helping women—especially Black women, immigrant women, and high-achieving professionals—heal from trauma, manage stress, and create lives that feel balanced and authentic.

My style is warm, collaborative, and grounded in both science and cultural awareness. I specialize in supporting women navigating burnout, relationship challenges, and the effects of racism or gender bias at work. In our sessions, I create a space where you can slow down, feel seen, and rebuild confidence from the inside out.

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) and EMDR-certified therapist, dedicated to providing a warm, empowering space for healing. A graduate of Virginia Commonwealth University, I specialize in helping individuals reprocess trauma, build skills to manage emotional dysregulation, and develop a more positive mindset. My approach is client-centered and trauma-informed, guiding you toward resilience and lasting change. Whether you're facing PTSD, anxiety, or life transitions, I am here to support your journey to well-being.

As a Licensed Professional Counselor, I believe prioritizing mental health is key to happiness and stability in life. Seeking help can be one of the hardest parts, so congratulations on taking that step! I’ve been practicing for 10 years, but in the last few years, I have shifted my main focus to clients who are struggling with anxiety, depression, and stress management concerns. I also work with professionals who are looking for a safe place to address concerns that they may not always feel comfortable with sharing in their work environment.

Finding the right therapist can feel overwhelming — and sometimes the hardest part is simply starting. As a Licensed Professional Counselor, Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist, Registered Art Therapist, and Master Addictions Counselor, I bring more than two decades of experience supporting individuals, couples, and families through some of life’s most challenging moments.
