EVENING TELEHEALTH HOURS/FREE CONSULTATION!! As a therapist, connecting with clients and walking with them through their journey of triumphs and challenges, I have found that the connection between counselor and client is paramount. I strive to meet my clients where they are, focusing on their strengths and empowering them to make the changes they see fit rather than prescribing issue or diagnosis. I value treating each individual client with the respect they deserve. Placing emphasis on developing a relationship that is based on warmth, trust, respect, and genuine care. The ease of conversation, is client driven and casual.


Many people seek out therapy because, despite their best efforts to change, they might end up in the same cycles. These cycles of behavior are driven by our life experiences and long-standing behavior patterns. Together, we will explore these patterns so that we can begin to create understanding of our motivations and create space for positive change.


For 16 years I have worked with clients impacted by anxiety, depression, and grief. My experience has provided me a unique perspective in working with individuals and couples, parents and families. I understand the need to get to know a counselor before scheduling a session. To help, I offer a free 15 min phone consultation. Look forward to hearing from you.

Happy patient looking away

Find the right counselor for your family

Headway makes it easier to find family-focused support — from finding the right provider, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in Richmond

Finding the right family therapist in Richmond starts with identifying what your family is looking for. Family therapy can address a range of concerns — from communication difficulties and parenting challenges to adjusting after a major life change. Licensed providers such as LPCs, LCSWs, and psychologists may use approaches like structural family therapy, family systems therapy, or cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) depending on your family's specific situation.

With many therapists practicing across the Richmond metro area, it helps to narrow your search by what matters most — whether that's a provider who specializes in a specific concern, offers virtual sessions, or is located near your neighborhood. On Headway, you can read detailed provider bios to learn about each therapist's style and experience before booking.

Family therapy in Richmond can be expensive without insurance. Using your in-network benefits is one of the most reliable ways to reduce your out-of-pocket costs. On Headway, you can enter your insurance details to see estimated session costs upfront, and your out-of-pocket expense may be as low as $0 per session, though costs vary based on your location and exact insurance coverage. Nationally, Headway partners with over 100 insurance plans, making it easier to find a family therapist who is both the right clinical fit and covered by your plan.
