Hello! Thanks for checking out my profile, and congratulations on taking the first steps in trying to find the right therapist for you! Should you choose to work with me you'll learn plenty more about me, but to hit the highlights: I spent the first half of my career and vocational life working in non-profit management and fundraising before becoming a therapist. I'm divorced and have 50/50 custody with my co-parent of our two delightful children (11 & 13). I love nature, soccer, and cooking!

I work with couples and individuals 21+, and have a particular interest and passion in working with folks (whether individually or as a couple, friends, or members of a family) suffering from CPTSD, complicated grief, and significant attachment and developmental trauma.

Find the right therapist for you

Headway makes it easy to find support for your mental health — from finding the right provider, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Mental Health Therapist in Chester, VA

Searching for therapists in Chester starts with finding someone whose experience fits what you want support with. You may be looking for help with anxiety, depression, grief, relationship challenges, work stress, or a major life change. As you compare therapists, look for listed specialties, therapy approaches, and experience with the concerns most relevant to you. A bio can also show how a therapist describes their style, what sessions may focus on, and whether their approach feels like a practical match.

Chester is a smaller community, so the number of nearby in-person therapists may be more limited than in larger Virginia cities. Virtual therapy can expand your options while still connecting you with a therapist licensed in Virginia. Some people prefer meeting in an office, while others choose virtual sessions for schedule fit or easier access from home. When narrowing your search, consider appointment times, whether the therapist is accepting new patients, free phone consultation options, and how clearly their profile explains their approach.

Therapy in Chester can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and make ongoing care easier to plan for. Headway helps you find therapists who match your needs, accept a wide range of insurance plans, and show estimated out-of-pocket costs before you book. You can review profiles, compare availability, and book directly when you’re ready.
