Therapists in Virginia

Greetings: I have been practicing for 40 years in a number of different settings. My Licenses are in the name "Elaine Walters McFerron." During the pandemic I moved my practice online. I have come to love this way of working. My experience runs deep. Many clients return at different stages of their lives when they feel the need for assistance, support and encouragement. How to get unstuck? I meet people where they are in the moment. I believe that change is possible. I am constantly thinking about what creates change. Often it is important to seek a different perspective. I think systemically. That means that I consider you as an individual or couple and all the people you are connected with. I value empathy and compassion. What makes us human beings? Everyone wants to be seen and heard. I believe in the power of presence and deep listening. Finding one's voice. I am direct and straight forward. I help individuals and families make important shifts in their lives, develop self-care plans, process grief, develop lasting relationships, establish spiritual practices. Because I am a writer with an MFA in Writing and Literature, I understand the creative process and help artists who feel challenged to make their art. I often prescribe books and other resources. I am a Certified iRest Yoga Nidra Meditation teacher and know the value of renewal, rest and restoration. It take a great deal of courage to begin any personal growth. I honor this courage.

I began helping others in 1990 as a Peer Counselor while active duty in the Marine Corps. After earning degrees in Psychology and Social Work at UNCW/ECU, I obtained Licensure to practice independently with Virginia Board of Health Professionals in 2004. I am originally from the Hampton Roads area, but have enjoyed working internationally with people from many different backgrounds. I have 3 decades of experience treating trauma with effective, evidenced based modalities, such as CPT , PET, and EMDR. Whether through individual, couples , or Family therapy, I enjoy bringing others to their best version of themselves. I have a warm and practical approach, frequently using a holistic lens to offer practical techniques such as yoga, acupressure, and breathing techniques to alleviate symptoms. I have successfully treated most issues people experience with compassion, and positivity for the future.

I am Licensed Professional counselor and Registered Nurse with over 15 years of experience, knowledge and skills gained in the mental health field both at an acute care setting (at a local community hospital) and in an outpatient setting. My experience has been primarily with adult individuals who have had a range of concerns including but not limited to general life stressors, relationship or parenting issues, trauma, addiction, grief, a combination of both physical and mental health issues, mood disorders (depression and bipolar), coping with life changes (career, aging, health) and anxiety. Therapy is a collaborative venture, informed and shaped by a combination of what you the client brings to the table and my intention of cultivating a relationship based on essential ingredients such as mutual trust and respect, cultural sensitivity, humility and genuineness. Based on feedback of clients, as well as the facts that one size does not fit all and clients are diverse culturally and in presenting needs, I have found that the use of a flexible, eclectic, holistic approach that draws on principles of Client centered therapy, Cognitive Behavior Therapy, Motivational interviewing, Dialectical Behavior therapy, Mindfulness, Existentialism, and Trauma-informed care to be well received by clients and most helpful. My approach to therapy places emphasis on addressing the needs of the whole person (physical, emotional, spiritual, psychological, relational) and incorporates accessible resources such as movement, art, music and nature which can assist when moving in the direction of healing, recovery and wellness. My intention is to come alongside you to provide support, encouragement and challenge as needed, and ultimately to empower you in your desire, hopes and attempts to create a life that is both satisfying and fulfilling. So, when you are ready, I look forward to working with you.
