Therapist

Virtual & in-person • Tysons, VA


Because we are a Relational & Experiential center. Relational psychotherapy is an integrative form of therapy, born from a combination of several therapeutic theories and practices. In the 1980s a shift occurred in the practice of therapy, in that it moved away from simply exploring inner experiences (intrasubjective) and toward greater understanding of the impact of relationships on individual experiences (intersubjective). Since then, relational psychotherapy has expanded, and grown to become a widely used theoretical base.

The focus is on a person’s relationships/environment and the impact they can have on his/hers emotional and mental wellness (combination of nature and nurture). That is why we offer help beyond talk therapy and behavioral modalities. We are trained in brain changing therapeutic approaches based on the latest neuroscience information to rewire your brain and achieve long term healing and benefits when traditional therapy isn’t enough: EMDR, IFS, Adult Attachment Therapy, Imago, Somatic Intervention, Intuitive Eating...

Ask for more information to see which one is the best for you.

Find the right therapist for you

Headway makes it easy to find support for your mental health — from finding the right provider, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.

Factors to Consider When Choosing an Anxiety 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.
