Denise Thomson

As a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Virginia, I specialize in working with older teens and adults who are navigating challenges related to relationships, anxiety, and depression. Whether you're feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or simply looking for support, I offer a compassionate and structured approach to help you move forward with confidence and clarity.

I believe that therapy is a powerful opportunity for you to grow into the best version of yourself. Using evidence-based approaches, particularly Cognitive-Behavioral Therapies (CBT), I work collaboratively with clients to develop practical skills for coping with thoughts, emotions, and behaviors.

My goal is to help you gain insight, build resilience, and create meaningful change—one step at a time.

As your therapist, my role is to truly listen and support you in developing the coping strategies you need to work through life’s challenges and move toward becoming the best version of yourself.

While we’ll certainly focus on areas where change and healing are needed, I also believe it’s just as important to recognize your strengths — the ways you're already growing, thriving, and applying insights from our work together. Therapy isn't just about what's not working; it’s also about celebrating progress and building on what is.

Together, we'll create a space that encourages growth, self-awareness, and lasting positive change.
