Trauma and PTSD are supported through individual counseling. Some counselors offer art therapy and we have one counselor who does EMDR. Reviewing past trauma can be beneficial in the counseling process as it can be a means of neutralizing the trauma.

A Little Healing LLC
Counselor/Therapist, LPC
Trauma can continue affecting you long after the experience itself has ended. You may find yourself feeling constantly on guard, avoiding certain situations, struggling to trust others, experiencing painful memories, or noticing that past experiences continue to shape your relationships, boundaries, self-worth, and the way you respond to conflict. I help women explore how trauma and difficult past experiences may still be influencing their lives today. Together, we’ll work toward understanding your responses with greater compassion, processing what you’ve carried, strengthening your sense of safety and self-trust, and creating healthier patterns that allow your past to be part of your story without continuing to define your future.

Shay Malone
Pre-Licensed Professional, Ed.S., Resident in Counseling
I specialize in working with clients who are experiencing the ongoing effects of childhood abuse and neglect. This includes emotional neglect as well, which is often a surprise for clients who remember their home as a happy place. Chronic childhood stress is one of the most common causes of anxiety and depression, as well as autoimmune disorders. Adults who had chronic childhood stress are also far more likely to end up in emotionally unsafe relationships.

Alabaster Counseling
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC
Trauma has a way of living in the body and the mind long after the event itself has passed, and for many girls and women, it can quietly shape the way they see themselves, their relationships, and the world around them without them even realizing it. At Alabaster Counseling, we provide compassionate, evidence-based therapy for girls and women who are carrying the weight of trauma and PTSD, whether it stems from childhood experiences, abuse, loss, assault, or any other painful chapter of your story. We understand that talking about trauma takes tremendous courage, and we will always move at your pace, honoring your boundaries and your process every step of the way. Our goal is to help you feel safe, understood, and empowered as you work through what you have experienced and begin to reclaim the sense of peace, wholeness, and freedom that is rightfully yours.

Hampton is an independent city on the Virginia Peninsula, home to Langley Air Force Base and NASA Langley Research Center, two of the most significant federal installations in Virginia, and the city's mental health landscape is shaped by a large military and federal civilian workforce alongside a historically significant Black community centered on Hampton University, one of the nation's leading historically Black universities. The intersection of military mental health needs—trauma, PTSD, transition—with the academic and identity-related concerns of an HBCU community makes Hampton a city with a particularly diverse and meaningful therapy landscape. Sentara and Riverside Health System provide behavioral health services in the Hampton Roads area, and a private therapy sector serves both military-connected and civilian residents. Common therapy concerns include trauma and military transition, racial identity and community belonging, anxiety, depression, and the stresses of federal and classified employment.
