Grief Therapists in Richmond, VA

Hello! My name is Newzaira, which translates to someone who sees's the good in others. Do you feel that at times you struggle with finding a deeper meaning in life? Or that little things can trigger a large emotional response? Is it hard to draw kindness to your experiences and others around you?

Are you grieving the loss of a loved one? Are you an LGBTQ youth or teen struggling with surviving in an unkind world? Are you an adult child faced with the changes or declining health of an elderly parent? Or simply a person trying to create a life of meaning and purpose?

Hi there! I am Brazilian and I graduated in Psychology over 15 years ago - do not do the Math! :) I have been living in the USA since 2014 and I obtained my Masters in Clinical Mental Health Counseling in 2018.

I offer individual, couples, and group therapy. In addition to ameliorating symptoms, decreasing emotional pain, and helping to solve difficult problems, experiential therapy, along with mindfulness and somatic awareness can facilitate significant personal growth and increased wellness. My approach is broadly humanistic, meaning we seek together in a safe and secure environment, mutual understanding of you as a whole person, honing your internal "voice" and tapping into your existing strengths. Once we identify who you really are inside and what is most important to you, the path to bringing your life into alignment becomes clearer.

Life’s challenges may cause us to react and respond in many different ways. Our current situation may or may not be in our immediate control, but when we look at our life, long-term, it will be the decisions that we make today that set the course of the overall outcome. Experiencing depression, anxiety, grief, confusion, and frustration (to name a few) may be a part of that journey, but you do not have to go down that road alone. It's important to have a safe and confidential space to work through challenges, become more resilient, and come out on the other side with confidence and skills to manage the situations you face.

I pursued this work because I know what it is like to be knocked off course. Over the years, I have found that assisting people heal from trauma is what I am meant to do. I focus on empowering my clients through education, proven therapies, and allowing my clients to lead their treatment. You are the expert on your own experience! I'm here to safely offer you an alternate path to your goals. You are experiencing a normal reaction to something that is abnormal. Trauma and grief are heavy - you don't have to carry it alone and it does not have to be a part of your identity.

I have been providing outpatient therapy to individuals, couples, and families since 2019; prior to that, I worked as an intensive in-home counselor and ABA therapist for ten years while I obtained my master's degree and completed my residency. As much as I enjoy seeing my clients in person, I have strengthened my ability to provide therapy virtually, applying various resources and maintaining a strong rapport through my non-judgmental and open-minded approach.

I believe that people are resilient and that we all have the capacity to change our lives for the better if we are given opportunities to succeed. Many of us will suffer moments of defeat, moments of heartache, cultural moments of significance, and situations of joy that beg to be shared. As a therapist, I facilitate the success of others by creating a space for hope, empowerment, passion, and sorrows. I desire to help others to become their best selves.
