Kimberly White

Kimberly White

Therapist

Virtual • West Virginia


I am a therapist from southern WV who specializes in trauma and somatic therapy. I have received training in Somatic Experiencing and am on the Advanced, Level 2 training. I spent a decade working with children in foster care, addressing issues related to severe abuse and neglect. This has encouraged my interest in neurological development and attachment theory. I love learning about neuroscience and incorporate this into treatment to address the mind/body connection. I now work with parents to assist them in reunifying with their children. This includes elements of social work as well as counseling. Work in this field has prepared me to work with clients, not just from an individual framework but also being mindful to address systemic and societal issues that contribute to mental health symptoms. I am neurodivergent and relate well to clients with neurodivergence.

Amber Clay

Amber Clay

Therapist

Virtual • West Virginia


I’m a Licensed Professional Counselor and Registered Play Therapist based in southern West Virginia. I work with children, adolescents, and adults who are navigating anxiety, trauma, emotional overwhelm, self-worth challenges, life transitions, and family stressors.

I am especially passionate about helping children and teens develop emotional regulation skills and helping adults build confidence, boundaries, and a stronger sense of identity.

As someone who serves rural communities, I understand the unique pressures families face — close-knit systems, generational patterns, limited resources, and the desire to “handle things on your own.” Therapy with me is a place where you don’t have to carry everything alone.

My Philosophy

I believe people are not “too much” — they are often carrying too much.

Therapy is not about fixing you. It’s about helping you understand yourself, regulate your emotions, and build a life that feels more steady and aligned.

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 a Therapist in West Virginia

Searching for therapists in West Virginia starts with finding someone whose training matches what you want support with. Across urban and rural parts of the state, available therapists and areas of focus can vary. You may want support for anxiety, depression, grief, relationship challenges, trauma, or life transitions. As you compare options, look for a therapist who lists experience with your concerns, preferred therapy approaches, or populations they support. A detailed bio can help you understand how they work before you book.

Location and format matter, too. If you are looking for a therapist in Charleston, Morgantown, Huntington, or a nearby community, in-person availability may depend on where you live and how far you want to travel. Virtual appointments can expand your options across West Virginia, especially when local openings are limited. As you narrow your search, review whether a therapist is accepting new clients, offers appointment times that fit your schedule, and provides a free phone consultation. Bios can also show communication style, session structure, and what to expect in a first visit.

The cost of therapy in West Virginia can vary, and using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs. Headway helps you search for therapists who take your insurance, see estimated out-of-pocket costs before booking, and book directly when you find a fit. Nationally, Headway partners with over 100 insurance plans, and you can enter your plan details to check coverage for your location. From there, you can browse therapists, review bios, and choose someone who matches your needs, schedule, and insurance plan.

If you or someone you know is experiencing severe withdrawal symptoms — especially from alcohol or benzodiazepines — talk to a medical provider or seek emergency care before starting outpatient therapy. If you or someone you know is struggling with addiction or substance use and is in a crisis, immediately reach out to:

* 988 Suicide & Crisis Lifeline — call or text 988 * SAMHSA National Helpline — 1-800-662-HELP (4357), free, confidential, 24/7 * Crisis Text Line — text HOME to 741741

1 Cost may vary based on your location, age, and insurance coverage.
