Trauma and PTSD therapists & psychiatrists in Fredericksburg, VA

Hi, I’m Michelle Gorden, a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Virginia and a Nationally Certified Counselor (NCC). I’m passionate about helping individuals, couples, and families heal, grow, and reconnect with the best version of themselves.

My clinical approach is grounded in evidence-based practices, and I am trained in Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and Solution-Focused Brief Therapy (SFBT). I specialize in working with clients experiencing anxiety, depression, trauma, PTSD, mood disorders, relationship challenges, life transitions, and emotional regulation difficulties.

In addition to my clinical work, my diverse professional and personal background allows me to connect with clients from many walks of life. I believe therapy should feel supportive, empowering, and collaborative — a place where you can feel truly seen, heard, and understood without judgment.

I have my Master of Social Work from New York University and have worked in Social Services and Behavioral Healthcare for more than 26 years between New York City and Philadelphia. I offer individual therapy to support my clients in their work to live their best lives, whatever that means to them. I have experience working in inpatient psychiatry and outpatient counseling.

Hi, I’m Ethan

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) with an M.S. in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Divine Mercy University. My training and experience focus on trauma, Emotion-Focused Therapy, and Person-Centered Therapy.

I believe people are naturally inclined to grow and thrive. Emotions are not just things to manage; they are strengths we can use to live well. I value each client’s story and creating a safe space to share it. I draw on attachment-based ideas, which say people heal best in secure, connected relationships—neither fully dependent nor completely independent, but interdependent.

I work with depression, anxiety, acute/chronic/complex trauma, and relationship distress. I treat individuals of all ages, as well as couples and families.

Credentials and training:

• Certified Clinical Traumatologist
• Level 1 and 2 Emotion-Focused Family Therapy
• Core skills in Emotion-Focused Couples Therapy

Hello! My name is Brian, and I'm a clinical social worker. I've been in the field for 27 years, helping people conquer their troubles, transitions, and major decisions, both big and small.

I am a Board-Certified Psychiatrist and I have been treating patients across the lifespan for over 15 years. Once my caseload became full in 2022, I founded a small practice (Tandem Telehealth) where I now oversee a handful of talented psychiatric nurse practitioners and talk therapists. The team approach allows us to provide faster access to care for new patients and a higher level of support than you would likely receive from individuals working independently.

I am a certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP-BC) with several years of experience treating children, adolescents, and adults.
