Alabaster Counseling
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC
Anxiety has a way of making the world feel smaller, stealing your peace, keeping you up at night, and convincing you that the worst is always just around the corner. At Alabaster Counseling, we specialize in helping girls and women of all ages understand and overcome anxiety and fears, whether they show up as constant worry, panic attacks, social anxiety, phobias, or a persistent sense of dread that is hard to explain. Through evidence-based CBT techniques, we help our clients gently challenge the thoughts that fuel their fears, develop grounding tools for real-life moments, and rebuild a sense of calm, confidence, and safety from the inside out.

Hannah Hayden with Sapphire Counseling
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
Anxiety can feel exhausting, keeping you stuck in cycles of worry, overthinking, avoidance, or self-doubt. Therapy can help you better understand your anxiety, identify patterns that keep it going, and develop practical tools to manage it. Our goal is not to eliminate anxiety completely (because we can't), but to help you feel more confident, grounded, and able to move forward despite it.

MindOverHealing Therapies
Hypnotherapist, CHt
Anxiety and fears are areas where hypnotherapy can have a profound impact. Through the power of suggestion and the exploration of the subconscious mind, hypnotherapy helps individuals confront and release the deep-rooted causes of their anxiety and fears. This therapeutic process begins with a state of deep relaxation, allowing clients to access their subconscious mind where negative thoughts and behaviors often originate.

7 Years Experience
Online in Chesapeake, VA Virginia (Online Only)
Chesapeake is the largest city in Virginia by land area — a mostly suburban and semi-rural community spread across the southern Hampton Roads region — with a therapy landscape shaped by its proximity to Naval Station Norfolk and the broader military community, as well as the particular stresses of a sprawling suburb where long commutes and limited walkable community can contribute to social isolation. The city's large African American population and its place within Hampton Roads' racially complex social fabric create demand for culturally affirming therapists who work with racial identity, community resilience, and intergenerational family dynamics. Chesapeake Regional Medical Center provides institutional mental health resources alongside the broader Hampton Roads healthcare ecosystem. Many Chesapeake residents access therapy through the wider Norfolk-Virginia Beach metro, given the city's geographic extent and integration with the regional mental health network.
