Therapists in Leesburg, VA

Hello, my name is Joe Gasperini. I live in Southern Virginia after having grown up in upstate New York and Los Angeles, CA. I am married and the father of eight children ranging in age from 19 to 43. During my spare time I am interested in activities of my children, sports (especially golf), travel, and insight into social behavior. Therapy is a place where you can feel heard in a supportive, comfortable and warm environment. When life is overwhelming and stressful, or relationships are struggling, counseling can help. As a Licensed Professional Counselor, we will work together to help you reduce the suffering you may feel. I want to hear about what is hurting you and stopping you from moving forward in a happy and positive way in your life. Together we will decide on a plan of action to get you back to where you want to be as quickly as possible and develop a way to keep you there. Due to my very diverse background and having gone through many of life's ups and downs myself, I have learned how best to treat a multitude of life's issues. This helps to come up with effective plans to alleviate problems by understanding where you are coming from. My approach to counseling is interactive, down-to-earth and collaborative. I strive to create a comfortable, non-judgmental environment where you feel free to openly discuss whatever issues you feel most important. Together, we can work to give you the tools you need to create the life you want. I have BS degree in Finance and Economics from Syracuse University and a MA degree in Licensed Professional Counseling from Liberty University. I am also a Certified Anger Management Specialist II. I look forward to working with you.

Welcome to a space of healing and growth! Treating behavior alone does not resolve the root issue. I help individuals navigate challenging times by uncovering and healing underlying traumas, which in turn alleviates symptoms of depression and anxiety. I also offer compassionate guidance for adults facing the pain of relational betrayal, equipping them with practical tools to heal and move forward. In our sessions, clients frequently share that they feel truly heard, supported, and safe to explore their emotions without fear of judgment. As we work together, they begin to notice tangible progress, equipped with practical tools and strategies to manage their challenges. They leave sessions feeling more grounded, empowered, and confident, knowing they have the skills to navigate whatever life throws their way. The journey toward healing is deeply personal, and I’m committed to creating a space where you feel safe, understood, and capable of real growth.
