Therapists in Virginia Beach, VA

Are you noticing the desire to make changes? You may be struggling with anxious thoughts, self doubt, worries or stress. Transitions such as moving, having a baby, dealing with relationships or the loss/desire of one are all things that happen and can be overwhelming. Are you looking to gain a deeper awareness, develop healthy coping skills, or manage what may feel like is out of control? Maybe it's simply time to process what's going on, find or renew that sense of inner strength and confidence.

My approach is person-centered, solution-focused, mindfulness, and cognitive-behavioral to help empower and motivate change in clients and their families. I strive to help adults using a non-judgmental and supportive approach. My focus is on helping you better understand the relationship between your thoughts and feelings.

Hello! I'm a licensed professional therapist with four years of experience specializing in outpatient counseling. My practice encompasses working with children, adolescents, and adults dealing with various challenges, including depression, anxiety, bipolar disorder, grief, trauma, autism spectrum disorder, LGBTQ+ issues, life stage transition difficulties, and other mental health disorders. Taking the initiative to pursue a more fulfilling and happier life requires courage, and I commend you for taking that first step towards change. I'm here to provide you with the support and empowerment you need on your journey.

I am passionate about helping others succeed in improving their mental health so they may live healthy life. I believe each stage of life brings an opportunity to grow and challenges to be faced. Due to people’s backgrounds and mental health issues, they may lack the skills or emotional stability to navigate circumstances on their own. My goal is to provide an empathetic, non-judgmental, warm, and attentive environment that produces personal growth and wholeness. A place where the individual may feel comfortable sharing pains and struggles in life as well as developing self-compassion and resilience.

Easy to schedule on our website! For those of you who garden, you understand the importance of pulling a weed out by its roots; otherwise, it will keep coming back. Many counseling issues are like weeds. As therapists, we value taking the time necessary to explore your past & determine together the root causes of your issues. At the same time, it's important to make this process efficient and effective. We'll work towards healing, as well as functioning without the need for therapy, in a timely manner. But we'll also be here for you whenever you need us!

Hello. My name is Sa'Deria Brace and I'm a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) based in Virginia. I enjoy working with every population and diverse cultures. My role as a therapist is to provide clients the space to navigate life's stressors and build resilience to persevere.

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with a master's in clinical social work, based in Richmond Virginia. I work with adult clients of all backgrounds, while specializing in following areas: LGBTQ+, kink/polyamory/ethically non-monogamous relationships, sex workers, and substance use/misuse recovery and harm reduction. I am passionate about helping people feel comfortable and safe in their own skins and gain tools to manage their day to day lives.

My therapy approach is built on two beliefs- people are amazingly resilient and there is always hope. I draw from EMDR and CBT training to work with clients facing a variety of challenges and help them move to the present and build on their strengths. Together we focus on developing new thinking patterns that will lead to the desired behavioral changes. My professional background includes working with children, adolescents, adults, and families in both the inpatient and community settings. My Christian faith centers me and can be used in the therapeutic relationship with clients who share my faith or want to learn more.

Does it feel like every time you get ahead something goes wrong in your life? Perhaps you struggle with relationships, school stress, job difficulties, or other things that just never go right. I know that problems can become overwhelming. Life stress can lead to anxiety and depression that makes it even more difficult to cope. Often past experiences such as trauma can make things worse as well. While it may feel like things will never change, the truth is they can. With support you can learn to solve problems as they arise, to cope with them differently, or if necessary, change the environment itself.

I AM accepting new clients at this time. My name is Savannah Pierce, and I'm a Licensed Professional Counselor in Virginia working at Coastal Virginia Counseling & Mediation. I obtained a Master’s of science degree at Longwood University in the field of Mental Health Counseling. My therapeutic approach includes Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and positive psychology techniques while using a client-centered approach. Throughout my clinical journey, I found my passion entails working with individuals and families from all walks of life who are ready to make changes in their lives.

I believe individuals have the answers they need within themselves; they just need assistance finding those answers. I understand how hard it is to decide to attend counseling and then actually make the call. It is a vulnerable and healthy first step. Together we will identify what is and is not working for you and develop tools that increase your well-being.

Transitions and adjustments can be difficult. At times we can feel wonderful, while other times we are left wondering "what happened?". In those moments, it can be difficult to know what to do or how to navigate the next steps in our life. The journey can be painful, overwhelming and just down right exhausting. While many of us experience similar situations, no one experience is the same; which is why I want to help find what benefits and helps you the most. I will help guide you and support you during your journey by tailoring treatment to fit you and your experience(s).
