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.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Mental Health Therapist in Harrisonburg, VA
Searching for therapists in Harrisonburg starts with identifying the kind of support that fits what you want to address. People look for therapy for many reasons, including anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, grief, life transitions, and work stress. As you compare Harrisonburg therapists, look for training and listed specialties that match your needs. A therapist’s bio can help you understand their approach, such as cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, trauma-informed therapy, or support for couples and families.
In a smaller city like Harrisonburg, local appointment options may be more limited than in larger Virginia markets. Virtual therapy can expand your search while still connecting you with a therapist licensed in Virginia. If you prefer in-person care, consider office location, commute time, and appointment availability. If virtual care fits your schedule better, look for therapists with evening, weekend, or flexible openings. Reading profiles before booking can also show how a therapist describes their communication style, session structure, and areas of focus.
Therapy in Harrisonburg can be a significant expense without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and understand what you may pay before your first appointment. Headway helps you search for therapists who accept a wide range of insurance plans, review detailed bios, see availability, and book directly when you’re ready.
