Darlene Clark

I specialize in trauma, anxiety, parenting challenges, and have extensive experience supporting individuals living with serious mental illness. My passion is helping people navigate life transitions while building self-esteem, confidence, and resilience.

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in Virginia with10 years of experience in the mental health field.

When I’m not working, I love spending time with my family, relaxing at the beach, gardening, camping, and experimenting with new vegan recipes in the kitchen.

I believe therapy works best when grounded in respect, compassion, and openness. I strive to create a safe, non-judgmental space where you feel comfortable sharing your thoughts and feelings. Starting therapy takes courage, and I want to acknowledge the bravery it takes to take this first step. My goal is to help you be the best version of yourself.

Many clients are surprised to find therapy feels easier and more approachable than they expected, especially with my casual, down-to-earth style. We can jump right into what you would like to focus on, or we can take a slower approach. That is up to you.
