I'm Symone Lyles (she/her/hers), a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW). My work is grounded in the belief that you are the expert of your own healing. I’m here to guide and support steady, intentional growth at a pace that feels safe and authentic.
Like a turtle with its shell, you carry your protection wherever you go. I aim to create a space that balances comfort and challenge through connection, humor, and honesty while supporting you to come out of your shell.
My goal is to help clients develop greater awareness, resilience, and alignment between who they are and how they want to show up in the world.
As a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Virginia, I have worked in the mental health field for over 10 years. Currently, I provide individual and family therapy services to teenagers and adults experiencing mood disorders, anxiety, and trauma, as well as with LBGTQ+ and trans/gender non-conforming (TGNC) folks seeking supportive and affirming care.
Laneka Montgomery is a compassionate therapist with experience supporting individuals navigating stress, trauma, depression, anxiety, grief, and life transitions, including end-of-life concerns. She works with adults, women, and couples facing relationship challenges and emotional distress.

I am a Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner dedicated to providing compassionate, evidence-based care. I specialize in medication management and supportive therapy for a broad range of psychiatric disorders, including depression, anxiety, bipolar disorder, schizophrenia, trauma-related conditions, substance use disorders, and others. My approach is holistic and person-centered, fostering a safe and nonjudgmental environment where clients feel supported and empowered to achieve emotional stability, improved functioning, and overall well-being.
Making the decision to start therapy is a profound investment of your time, energy, and vulnerability. If you are looking for a blank-slate clinician who simply nods and listens, we might not be the best fit. I offer a highly engaged, malleable, and unflinching partnership.
My approach is rooted in the belief that while the work of untangling our lives is deeply structural, the room itself doesn't always have to feel heavy. I bring a grounded warmth to my practice—which means knowing how to sit quietly in the gravity of a difficult truth, but also knowing when to break the tension, exhale, and find the light in the sheer complexity of being human. I won’t just sit in silence while you do all the heavy lifting; I am an active collaborator who adapts to exactly where you are.
I'm a licensed professional counselor with a Master's degree in Art Therapy and Family Therapy and over 15 years experience in the field. I specialize in working with individuals facing anxiety, depression, trauma, neurodivergence, and postpartum issues. My approach incorporates training in Structural Family Therapy, Attachment Theory, EMDR, Parts Work, and Reiki, blending evidence-based practices with holistic care to support your healing journey.
