LEGACY MENTAL HEALTH CONSULTING SERVICES
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
Legacy Mental Health Consulting Services provides compassionate, trauma‑informed support for individuals experiencing dissociative disorders, including episodes of detachment, memory gaps, identity confusion, or feeling disconnected from oneself or the world. We understand how frightening and isolating these experiences can be, and we offer a steady, grounding therapeutic environment to help clients regain a sense of safety and control. Using approaches such as CBT, DBT, mindfulness, and psychodynamic exploration, we work collaboratively to identify triggers, strengthen emotional regulation, and build skills that promote integration and stability. Whether dissociation stems from trauma, chronic stress, or long‑standing patterns of coping, we provide a gentle, structured path toward healing, self‑understanding, and restored connection.

Dissociation
MindOverHealing Therapies
Hypnotherapist, CHt
Dissociative disorders, characterized by disruptions in memory, identity, consciousness, and perception, can be profoundly challenging for those affected. These disruptions often stem from severe trauma or stress, leading individuals to disconnect from their thoughts, feelings, or sense of self as a coping mechanism. Hypnotherapy, with its ability to access the subconscious mind, offers a compassionate and insightful approach to addressing dissociative disorders.

Rebecca Castle-Waller
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
Hey Survivor, are you tired of feeling guilty and overwhelmed all the time? Everyone else seems so together and you're stuck battling your past? I get it. My name is Rebecca Castle-Waller and I help badass women with trauma become present in their lives and in their relationships, so you can actually enjoy this life you've built.
Many of my clients grew up in chaotic and unstable homes where from a young age they started taking care of others. Making meals, waking their parents up for work, getting their siblings off to school. From there, you went on to take care of your partner and your kiddos while also working hard to keep everything running smoothly. Now with work and relationships and family drama and life you feel constantly stressed out and like you should be doing more. Oh, and you're doing all of this while facing nightmares, flashbacks, numbness, random waves of anger, and the like. Who's taking care of you?
Let's give you a space where you can be your messy, imperfect self so you can finally take care of you. It's time to heal your trauma, you've built an amazing life and you deserve to actually live it.

Dr. Adam Shafer (Chicago, IL)
Psychologist, Psy. D., M.A.
When people experience trauma, the mind has a wonderful way of protecting us from the pain that sometimes comes at the service of disconnecting from ourselves.

35 Years Experience
Online in Chesapeake, VA
Chesapeake is the second-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.
