My name is Ebony Walker and I am an LPC in the State of Virginia. I completed my undergraduate studies at Virginia Commonwealth University and obtained my Masters Degree from Liberty University. I have a history of working with individuals with a broad range of concerns to include: depression, stress/anxiety, lack of coping skills, issues with anger, relationship issues, trauma, poor communication, abuse/neglect, relationship and family conflict with focus on adults, adolescents and couples.
I work primarily with individuals and couples who need assistance in learning what to do when difficult emotions appear. I work with couples navigating the same arguments over and over or individuals wondering, "Why does this feel so hard?" Areas of specialty include:
- Anger and areas of conflict
- Cycles of closeness and withdraw
- Emotional distance and disengagement
- Healing from affairs
- Lack of trust and insecurities
- Dating
- Premarital counseling
- Separation and divorce
- Parenting issues
- Power and control issues
Finding the right therapist, and starting therapy, can be both exciting and perhaps overwhelming. But your story matters--it is unique to you.
I can help with solving current struggles, as well as past wounds which may contribute to distress. I help those who want deeper insight into those areas they feel stuck; negative patterns of relating; or feeling blocked from living their best life.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Postpartum Therapist in Norfolk, VA
Searching for postpartum therapists in Norfolk starts with finding someone whose experience matches what you want support with. Postpartum concerns can include depression, anxiety, birth-related stress, identity shifts, and relationship strain. As you compare therapists, look for listed experience with perinatal mental health, postpartum support, or related specialties. A certification like PMH-C can also signal focused training in care during pregnancy and the postpartum period.
In Norfolk, the right fit may depend on more than specialty. Consider whether in-person therapy in Norfolk, VA fits your schedule, or whether virtual sessions make care easier to access during infant care, physical recovery, or changing routines. You can also narrow your search by appointment availability, whether a therapist is accepting new patients, and whether a free phone consultation is offered. Reading therapist bios can help you understand their approach, communication style, and experience with postpartum support in Virginia before you book.
Therapy in Norfolk can be a significant investment without insurance, which makes in-network coverage an important part of the search. Using insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs, and Headway helps you see estimated out-of-pocket costs before booking. You can compare postpartum therapists in Norfolk, review detailed profiles, confirm insurance fit, and book directly when you’re ready.
