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 have been licensed in Virginia as a Licensed Professional Counselor since 2011 and prefer cognitive behavioral (a form of talk therapy) and/ or solution-focused, goal-oriented approaches to treatment. If you find talking helps when you’re worried about something, I might be a good fit for you as a therapist. I will provide empathy and support in a non-judgmental environment as we work through your struggles together. If you need to unpack/work on significant trauma, you'll want to choose a therapist on the platform who has more training in trauma. I enjoy working the most with anxiety, depression, and marital and relationship issues. I am a Christian of the Baptist faith specializing in Christian counseling and working with women. However, much of my caseload is comprised of men, and I enjoy working with them and also with college students as well! Let me know if you’d like me to pray for or with you! We know that where two or more are gathered in His name, He is in the midst. I strive to provide an empathic and therapeutic listening environment, giving you a safe space to talk about whatever is on your mind. My sessions are judgment-free zones where we'll approach whatever is bothering you with sensitivity and understanding. I check messages daily. If you need immediate assistance, please call or text 988, call 911, or contact your local emergency services program.
