LGBT therapists in Winchester, VA

Hi there!

My name is Lorraine and I have over 20 years experience providing mental health services. I began my career in the school setting and have recently spread my wings into private practice. My approach is warm, compassionate, practical, and nonjudgmental. I believe therapy should feel like a safe place where you can be your authentic self, not a place where you have to have everything figured out before you walk through the door. Together, we can explore what is happening beneath the surface, identify patterns that may be getting in your way, and develop strategies that actually fit your life.

With 8 years of experience in the mental health field, I firmly believe in the parity of mental and physical health. Life often leads us into dark tunnels, and my role in therapy is to guide individuals toward the light at the end of those tunnels.

I graduated from EVMS with my degree in Art Therapy and Counseling in 2016, and since then have worked with a variety of different people in many different settings. My approach is collaborative and eclectic - I feel we are all on a path of growth, healing, and self discovery and that therapy can truly help this process along.

I believe in the inherent wisdom and strength within all human beings and I utilize a number of approaches to reveal that wisdom and strength within my clients.

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.
