I have a background in science and psychology, which fits my education as a psychologist. I am also a very creative and collaborative person. I want to work with each client to find the best individual treatment for them. I know many techniques and exercises, but only you can tell me what what works best for you. I enjoy helping adults (age 18+) navigate the transitions they face and be able to look forward to the future with hope (even if that feels very far away currently).
As a Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP) from Walden University, I am deeply passionate about delivering patient-centered care and committed to advocating for individuals from diverse backgrounds and cultures. With over eight years of experience working with patients, families, and communities affected by mental illness, I have developed a profound understanding of the importance of compassionate and individualized care.
My professional journey began as a registered nurse, where I came to realize that mental illness is no respecter of person, age, color, or social status. This experience reinforced my belief that every individual facing mental health challenges deserves a patient-centered, personalized, and holistic approach to their care.
As a PMHNP, my goal is to serve as a source of strength and support through active listening, empathy, and compassion. I strive to provide an evidence-based approach tailored to each patient’s specific needs, ensuring that every individual feels heard, valued, and empowered on their path to wellness.
My name is A.J. Esguerra. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor and have been working in the mental health field since 2001. I have split my time primarily between working in residential treatment with abused and neglected children, and most recently in a private therapeutic day school for children and adolescents with special needs (which remains my full-time job). However, after COVID, I felt it was part of my purpose and mission to begin providing online therapy part time. My belief is that the world needs connection more than ever, and there are few things more protective or more resilient than a positive relationship with another person
As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with over 19 years of experience, I provide culturally sensitive care to those navigating depression, anxiety, life transitions, and members of the LGBTQ+ community.
It takes incredible courage to pause and ask for support, and I am so glad you are here.
Hi, I'm Brooke, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with a certification in Perinatal Mental Health. I view therapy as a sacred, gentle space where you can step out of the daily noise, set down the burdens that are draining your emotional energy, and reconnect with your true self.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in Richmond
Finding the right therapist in Richmond starts with identifying what kind of care you need. Whether you're looking for help with anxiety, depression, relationship concerns, or another area, it helps to look for a licensed provider who specializes in those topics. Common provider types include licensed professional counselors (LPCs), licensed clinical social workers (LCSWs), psychologists, and psychiatrists. On Headway, you can read detailed provider bios to learn about their approach, specialties, and what to expect in a session.
Richmond has a wide range of mental health providers, but narrowing your options can take time. Consider what matters most to you — whether that's a provider who offers virtual sessions, practices near your neighborhood, or has experience with a specific therapy style like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) or Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT). A free phone consultation can also help you decide if a provider is the right fit before you commit.
Therapy in Richmond can be expensive out of pocket, but using your in-network insurance benefits is one of the most reliable ways to reduce costs. Nationally, Headway partners with over 100 insurance plans, and many patients pay as low as $0 per session depending on their coverage. You can enter your insurance information on Headway to see estimated session costs upfront, so you know what to expect before your first appointment.
