Therapists in Fredericksburg, VA
If you have been feeling like you do not want to do anything or that you just do not want to even get out of bed, you may be suffering from depression. Some other symptoms include fatigue, confusion, and sadness. A Fredericksburg based counselor can help you find out if you have depression and help you figure out what to do about it.
Located along the Rappahannock River you can sit and watch the sunrise or sunset, throw a line in to catch some fish, or even take a dip in the water if it is warm enough. Although, when you have depression you do not feel like doing much so if you are having some of these symptoms, you should talk to one of the counselors in Fredericksburg about helping you feel better.

Hello, my name is Courtney but I go by CC. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor in the state of Maryland and Virginia. I have been in the field for 8+ years working with clients in various fields including; crisis counseling, in-home therapy, family therapy, hospitalization, and foster care. In all those fields, I have primarily worked with clients who have suffered from depression, anxiety, mood disorders, conduct disorders, co-occurring disorders, personality disorders, family conflict, and many more. Those are big ways of saying that I have worked with a wide range of problems and a range of client populations. I am an eclectic counselor who believes that every client is different and deserves a unique treatment plan that is created together. I will work diligently alongside you, creating a treatment plan that will help you reach your goals in counseling. I also deem confidentiality most important and will always protect your rights in our counseling relationship. Seeking out counseling can often feel scary and overwhelming and my goal is to help you feel comfortable, accepted, and cared for. Not only is it my job to help others, but it has been a passion engraved in me since I was a kid. Other than confidentiality, i believe that listening to my clients makes the most difference. The last thing a hurting person needs is another person giving them advice. I focus on listening to my clients and hear their needs and wants. Once I have grasped the issues at hand, together we will work on bringing you to a healthier place where you feel peace. If you are wanting to be heard and understood than I am the counselor for you; so go ahead, take this next step with me and let's begin the journey of becoming the you that you want to be!
