Hello! My name is Angela Whitaker and I am dedicated to helping you navigate your unique journey toward mental wellness. Currently working towards full licensure as a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Virginia, I am thrilled to offer compassionate and individualized support to both adolescents and adults facing a wide range of challenges.
I hold a Bachelor’s Degree in Psychology from Virginia Commonwealth University and a Master’s Degree in Counselor Education with a concentration in Mental Health Counseling from Longwood University. My educational background, ongoing professional development and life experiences have equipped me with a diverse set of therapeutic tools to support you effectively.
In our sessions, you can expect a client-centered approach where your individual needs and experiences are the focal point. I utilize various evidence-based modalities, including Person-Centered Therapy, Emotion-Focused Therapy, and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, to tailor my approach to what best suits you. Whether you’re grappling with anxiety, depression, relationship issues, or other life stressors, I am here to guide you with empathy and expertise.
I am deeply passionate about helping others, because I believe that everyone deserves a space where they can be heard and understood. No one should have to suffer in silence, and I am honored to assist you on your path to healing. My goal is to provide a safe, supportive environment where you can explore your thoughts and feelings openly.
I look forward to working with you and helping you achieve your personal goals. Together, we can create meaningful change and progress on your journey to wellness. Let’s begin this transformative journey together.
