Blacksburg, Virginia therapist: Mary Sayre, licensed professional counselor
Compassion-Focused Therapy (CFT)

Mary Sayre

Licensed Professional Counselor, M.Ed, LPC
It has always been important to me to help others find their own worth; realize that they deserve to be treated with dignity and respect; and to help them see that often the biggest obstacle to obtaining a sense of worth is a lack of belief that they deserve it. These messages were often given to us early in life and we have carried them into our current lives-navigating them with old narratives. I believe that everyone has the right to be unburdened from these old messages to find a truer and more grounded sense of self.

Richmond, Virginia therapist: Jessica Packard, pre-licensed professional
Compassion-Focused Therapy (CFT)

Jessica Packard

Pre-Licensed Professional, MSW
You may be telling yourself you “should be over this by now”, but something still feels tender, heavy, or quietly disruptive. Many people come to me feeling anxious, overwhelmed, or off-balance, only to realize that what they’re experiencing is grief. Not just grief after a death, but grief tied to life transitions, changing identities, endings that weren’t chosen, or even milestones that were supposed to feel happy. I don’t believe in “moving on” or “getting over it.” I help clients understand how loss or change has shaped them, and how to move forward in a way that feels integrated, intentional, and true to who they are becoming. I bring experience across community behavioral health, private practice, and hospice social work, where I support people through some of life’s most vulnerable moments. Many of my clients are thoughtful, insight-oriented people who want to understand why they feel the way they do, not just manage symptoms. Growth happens in relationships: when you feel safe enough to explore, question, and even make mistakes. If you’re wondering whether what you’re experiencing might be grief, you don’t have to figure that out alone. I’d be honored to walk alongside you as you make sense of this chapter and shape what comes next.

Hey, thanks for taking a look at my profile! My name is Tracey, and I provide a warm, down-to-earth, and deeply supportive space for healing and growth. My approach blends mindfulness, holistic techniques, and evidence-based therapy to help clients break free from anxiety, OCD, people-pleasing, and self-doubt. Rather than offering quick fixes, I focus on lasting transformation—helping you reconnect with your inner strength, set healthy boundaries, and navigate life’s transitions with confidence. Clients often describe my style as authentic, perceptive, and deeply compassionate, creating a space where they feel truly seen and supported. What sets Talk with Tracey apart is my ability to blend practical tools with deeper emotional work, ensuring that you not only gain coping skills but also heal at the root level. Whether you're feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or just ready for change, I meet you where you are and guide you toward the life you truly want. Therapy with me isn’t just about reducing distress—it’s about helping you step into your full potential with clarity, resilience, and self-trust. If you’re ready to take that step, I’d love to support you on your journey.

Arlington, Virginia therapist: Mirjana Ivanisevic, PhD, psychologist
Compassion-Focused Therapy (CFT)

Mirjana Ivanisevic, PhD

Psychologist, PhD
In my therapy practice, I emphasize the use of empathetic listening, compassionate guidance, and a collaborative process to help my clients meet their goals for therapy. I use a combination of active listening, validation, and challenging unhealthy patterns to help clients develop insight into the psychological underpinnings of their distress, we couple this with strategy building to use healthier coping strategies to improve their quality of life. I emphasize solution-focused strategies (e.g., skill building, cognitive and emotional processing) to introduce healthier coping strategies, strengthen their psychological health, and improve their quality of life.
