Life Coach, ICF Professional Certified Coach (PCC), Holistic Life, Career & Executive
Carry me in your back pocket where ever you go in the world. Our coaching sessions can happen anywhere you have a phone or wi-fi signal. My primary focus and concern is YOU; and you carry yourself around with you always. So we don't need to be in the same physical space. The only requirement for online coaching is that you be in a place where you feel free to share your thoughts openly, honestly and transparently to get the most out of our time together.

Layla Ashley Psychotherapy
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Many couples struggle when conflict keeps repeating or one partner feels unseen, and distance grows even when both care deeply. In online sessions, I help partners slow down these patterns, recognize what’s happening beneath the surface, and build the skills to stay emotionally connected. Through attachment‑based and trauma‑informed practices, I guide couples toward communication that is safe, honest, and repair-focused, even when stress or past wounds are present. Online therapy can be a convenient, contained space to explore challenges together without the distractions of daily life.

My online therapy sessions are similar to my in-person sessions, just more convenient. I specialize in anger, relationships, communication, substance abuse, and compulsions. I believe changing in small ways can hugely impact your life and affect your happiness. Also, because I believe all sorts of relationships can bring fulfillment and joy, I am neither for nor against marriage.

For many, in person counseling is not the most practical for our lives due to our schedule, finances etc. For those reasons and more online counseling might be better for you.

Staci Des Rault
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, LMHC. M.Div
Insight alone does not create change, but without it, we're just bumping around in the dark. If you choose to work with me, we will work on both developing insight and self-awareness, as well as behavioral and emotional change. My style is warm and supportive, but I won't shy away from offering constructive feedback if you are open to it. My areas of expertise include helping people recover from alcohol/substance use issues, trauma, family of origin issues, spiritual abuse and religious trauma/deconstruction, grief, anxiety, relationship issues, ADHD management, and stages of life transitions.

Levana Slabodnick
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LISW-S, LCSW
I provide neurodivergent-affirming therapy for Autistic and ADHD adults who are ready to move from a deficit-based view of themselves toward radical self-acceptance. I believe that you are the ultimate expert on your own life, and my role is to partner with you in identifying the unique strengths of your neurobiology to reach your personal goals. Together, we will work to unlearn systemic shame, navigate burnout, and build a life that honors your sensory and emotional needs rather than forcing you to mask for the comfort of others. My approach is collaborative, trauma-focused, and dedicated to helping you appreciate the person you already are while advocating for the support you deserve.

Dr. Michael M. Grant
Psychologist, Licensed Clinical Psychologist PhD, MBA
I see clients online if they prefer that way of meeting whether they live in Charlottesville or not. I can also see online clients who live in almost all states in the US via my PSYPACT authorization. Both research and my personal experience indicate that online therapy and evaluations (if that is requested) are just as effective as meeting in person and offering services online makes it much easier for people across the US (and locally where I am) to get what the services/help they need in the easiest way possible.
