Grief counselors and therapists in Williamsburg, VA

I help ambitious adults who feel plateaued or stuck in their work, relationships, healing or personal growth. On the surface life may look solid, yet anxiety lingers, relationships feel strained, or old patterns keep showing up when they try to move forward in their work, relationships, or personal growth. You understand yourself intellectually, but the deeper patterns still feel outside your control. Often the coping strategies that once propelled you forward are now the very things holding you back. You may even know exactly what needs to change, yet still find yourself repeating the same reactions when pressure rises.

My passion lies in supporting children, teens, and young adults navigate through daily life stressors via a collaborative and supportive therapeutic environment. I have an extensive background in working with individuals who feel overwhelmed or defined by their life stories, those navigating trauma, and individuals experiencing relationship issues, mood disorders, anxiety, and/or depression. When I am not counseling or doing assessments, you can catch me reading, journaling, listening to music, swimming, traveling/ visiting sanctuaries/endangered animals, and/or spending time with family and friends.

I’m Ine Saka, PMHNP-BC, FNP, and founder of Empathy Wellness Center, currently serving Maryland and Virginia. As a board-certified psychiatric and family nurse practitioner, I provide compassionate, holistic, evidence-based care for children, adolescents, and adults. I specialize in ADHD, mood disorders, anxiety, and trauma, integrating traditional psychiatry with wellness-focused approaches to support mind, body, and spirit.

I have been a counselor for more than 30 years. I remain passionate about making a difference in the lives of others and believe that genuine caring is an essential element to an effective counseling relationship. Over the years I have worked with clients with significant trauma and loss. I consider it a privilege to stand with another individual as he or she resolves great pain. I specialize in treating clients with trauma, relationship issues, and borderline personality disorder.

Hi! I'm Alyssa and I am a licensed clinical social worker and geriatric mental health therapist who is passionate about helping older adults and caregivers navigate life and its challenges. I specialize in depression, anxiety, grief, relationship concerns, cultural issues, and life transitions. My goal is to provide compassionate care that will help you feel supported, seen, and heard.

I have worked as a therapist since 1993. I have not only provided therapy but, for many years, I supervised therapists as well. I’ve had the unique opportunity to work with clients with a wide variety of disorders and problems, and from a wide variety of backgrounds.

Living between cultures, expectations, or identities can create quiet pressures many people carry alone. Adults often reach out when grief, relationship strain, identity questions, or emotional overwhelm begin affecting daily life. I work with individuals navigating immigration experiences, cultural identity, family expectations, loss, and major life transitions. Therapy offers a space to slow down, make sense of what you’ve been carrying, and reconnect with your values so life feels more grounded, authentic, and emotionally balanced.

Hi, I’m Bethany Hagy, a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) with about six years of experience working with children, teens, and adults. I earned my Master of Arts in Professional Counseling from Liberty University in May 2021.

I work with clients ages 6 through adulthood, supporting a wide range of concerns including trauma, anxiety, depression, ADHD, anger, impulse control, relationship challenges, and life or career transitions. Whether you’re navigating something specific or just feeling stuck, I aim to meet you where you are.

At the core of my work is the belief that everyone deserves to feel seen, heard, and supported. I strive to be a voice for those who feel like they don’t have one and a steady presence for those who need someone in their corner.

I offer both in-person and telehealth sessions to make therapy as accessible and comfortable as possible.
