How to find the right counselor?

  • Someone local to your area

    You don’t want to travel 1 hr+ on these treacherous Virginia roads!

  • Someone with experience in the mental health field

    Look up their license number and make sure they are licensed with the Virginia Board of Counseling

  • Someone who can answer your questions, but not all of them

    Your Counselor should welcome questions about his/her expertise, what to expect through the process, and where to begin. He/she shouldn’t tell you what to believe or how exactly to live your life

  • Someone who does what you’re looking for

    Are you looking for an occupational therapist (nice arms), psychiatrist (take the blue pill), hypnotist (look into my eyes), psychologist (everyone loves testing!), or an entertainer (juggles)? Wrong place, but this is the place to start figuring out if those are needed, although everyone loves the big tent and elephants.
