As a LPC, I know that the client is the expert in their own life, and this truth guides the work we do together. I earned my BA from Lycoming College and my MA in Clinical Mental Health Counseling and School Counseling from Rider University. My theoretical framework is Person Centered/Solution Focused/CBT via talk therapy. My specialties include, but are not limited to anxiety, depression, ADHD, self-esteem, career challenges, relationship issues, grief, family challenges, and illness.
I have been working in the mental health field for four years and have experience supporting clients ages 5–60. I graduated from Regent University in 2021 with a degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling. For clients who prefer a faith-based approach, I also integrate Christian principles into therapy sessions.
I believe the most effective care comes from a strong, collaborative partnership. I approach each person as more than a diagnosis, and I value honesty, accountability, and mutual respect in the work we do together. Change is possible—I’ve seen it firsthand—and I’m here to support you in becoming the version of yourself you want to be. My background includes both a Bachelor’s and Master’s in Nursing from Walsh University, and I bring that clinical foundation into thoughtful, individualized care.
I am a direct, solution- oriented mental health therapist with over 30 years helping people navigate mental health challenges
Something keeps getting in the way - focus, old wounds, stress you can't quite name. I'm Michael, a Virginia LPC who works with adults around ADHD, trauma, and the weight men often carry without much support. Therapy with me is grounded, solution-oriented, and built for real change.
I'm a board-certified psychiatrist with over 20 years of experience in both general psychiatry and addiction medicine. My background spans a wide range of mental health conditions — from anxiety and depression to bipolar disorder and substance use — and I bring a deeply holistic perspective to every patient I work with. I offer telehealth care with flexible scheduling, including early morning appointments starting at 7:30am for those who need care before their workday begins.
I have over 8 1/2 years of experience helping adults, children, and families learn how to heal and grow from dysfunction, trauma, addiction, and mental health issues of all kinds. I have worked with people from ages 3-80 years old so I have a multitude of experiences with all kinds of mental health issues including (trauma, depression, anxiety, grief, LGBTQIA+ related issues, and more). I am a licensed marriage and family therapist who has worked in community mental health and online.
Are you ready for your journey? My goal as a therapist is to help you feel better and hopeful about your future. We all deserve a journey with happiness and personal success!!
I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) who has been in the helping profession for over 20 years. My journey as a therapist has been both personally and professionally rewarding. Much of my experience has been working with individuals from diverse populations who struggle with depression, grief, loss, anxiety and chronic illnesses. I have extensive experience working with adults and seniors citizens. My focus is making sure my clients are getting the best from me.
My treatment approach is rather laid back but is set on the foundation of developing a meaningful therapeutic relationship with my clients. Additionally, I utilize cognitive behavioral therapy, person centered therapy, solution focused therapeutic approaches to help you overcome some of the life's difficult challenges. I want you to feel like the person you were meant to be.
There is more to life than suffering in silence. You deserve happiness and personal success. It's time for you to feel whole again. I'm committed to aiding people navigate through difficult periods in their lives. Your mental wellness begins now. Reach out and find out for yourself.
Having over 30 years of experience and a doctorate in social work, I've enjoyed helping clients work through life's hardest passages- grief, identity, relationships, and carrying heavy burdens. I work with adults and seniors, individuals and couple, and bring a warm, direct, solution-oriented style that clients describe as grounding and refreshingly practical. We develop a rhythm quickly and I invest in understanding both where you have been and where you want to go. Homework often helps progress develop quickly.
I am a licensed professional counseling and I have experience working with individuals that struggle with anxiety, depression, bipolar, PTSD, trauma, personal issues, self esteem, relationship issues and substance abuse. My counseling style is warm and engaging. I treat anyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in Virginia
Searching for therapists in Virginia starts with finding the right clinical fit for your needs. Virginia has a wide mix of therapists across urban, suburban, and rural areas, so available options can vary by location. You may want support for anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, grief, trauma, or life transitions. As you compare Virginia therapists, look for training, listed specialties, and therapy approaches that match what you want to focus on. A therapist’s bio can help you understand their style, experience, and what sessions may look like.
Practical fit matters, too. Whether you are looking for therapy in Virginia Beach, Richmond, Northern Virginia, or a smaller community, consider whether in-person or virtual care works better for your schedule. Some people prefer meeting in an office, while others prefer the flexibility of virtual sessions from home. You can also narrow your search by appointment availability, whether a therapist offers a free phone consultation, and whether they are accepting new patients. Reading profiles before booking can help you compare communication style, specialties, and scheduling options in one place.
The cost of mental health care in Virginia varies, and using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs. Headway helps you find therapists who take your insurance, see estimated out-of-pocket costs before you book, and choose from appointments that fit your schedule. Nationally, Headway works with over 100 insurance plans. You can browse therapists in Virginia, review bios, check availability, and book directly when you are ready.
