Bethany Hagy

Bethany Hagy

Therapist

Virtual & in-person • Covington, VA


Hi, I’m Bethany Hagy, a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) with about six years of experience working with children, teens, and adults. I earned my Master of Arts in Professional Counseling from Liberty University in May 2021.

I work with clients ages 6 through adulthood, supporting a wide range of concerns including trauma, anxiety, depression, ADHD, anger, impulse control, relationship challenges, and life or career transitions. Whether you’re navigating something specific or just feeling stuck, I aim to meet you where you are.

At the core of my work is the belief that everyone deserves to feel seen, heard, and supported. I strive to be a voice for those who feel like they don’t have one and a steady presence for those who need someone in their corner.

I offer both in-person and telehealth sessions to make therapy as accessible and comfortable as possible.

Amanda Palacios

Amanda Palacios

Therapist

Virtual • Virginia


Hi there! I’m an LCSW in VA with my MSW from Rutgers, The State University of New Jersey, and my BFA from The College of New Jersey.

My practice primarily focuses on young adults and early-middle adults who are seeking to navigate through anxiety, depression, stress, various relationship/interpersonal challenges, and life transitions. While I have experience in adolescent and family systems, my current work is centered on supporting adults as they make meaningful changes in their lives. I have a collaborative and real-world approach to therapy. I think a lot about therapeutic fit; I truly believe the right therapist for the right person actually makes a huge difference.

My style is warm, flexible, and rooted in evidence-based interventions. I work best with people who are open-minded to the process and willing to explore what change may look and feel like. It is okay if you don’t know where to start yet.

Outside of work, I’m creative, adventurous, animal-loving, and enjoy being in the present.

Hello. My name is Adam and I am a Licensed Professional Counselor with a Masters in Clinical Mental Health Counseling. I have worked with adolescents, young adults, adults, families, and athletes on a variety of clinical issues such as anxiety, depression, life transitions, conflict resolution, relationships, sports counseling, and trauma. I believe we are all just one small adjustment away from the life we want. With the use of psychotherapy, we can modify behaviors, our mindset, and implement healthy habits to find balance while continuing to grow. No time like the present, so let's get started!
