A Little Healing LLC
Counselor/Therapist, LPC
I work with women who are used to being the person everyone else can count on but often struggle to give themselves that same care. You may find yourself saying yes when you really want to say no, feeling guilty when you set a boundary, overthinking whether someone is upset with you, or constantly putting other people's feelings and needs ahead of your own. Maybe you look like you have it all together on the outside, but inside you're exhausted, anxious, questioning yourself, or wondering when you lost touch with who you are and what you need. I help women struggling with people-pleasing, low self-esteem, boundaries, anxiety, depression, and trauma understand and heal the deeper wounds and patterns that keep them stuck. My goal isn't to teach you to stop caring about other people or become someone you're not. I want to help you learn how to care about others without continually abandoning yourself in the process. Together, we'll work toward helping you trust yourself, strengthen your voice, set healthier boundaries without being consumed by guilt, develop greater self-compassion, and reconnect with the parts of yourself that may have gotten lost while you were busy being who everyone else needed you to be.

Hannah Hayden with Sapphire Counseling
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
I believe therapy is most effective when people feel genuinely seen, understood, and accepted. My approach blends evidence-based interventions with authenticity, curiosity, and a deep respect for each person's unique story. Rather than focusing solely on symptom reduction, I help clients better understand themselves, challenge the patterns that keep them stuck, and create meaningful, lasting change. Whether I'm working with clients, supervising clinicians, or speaking to other mental health professionals, my goal is the same: to foster authentic human connection as the foundation for healing.

Newport News is defined by its location at the heart of the Hampton Roads shipbuilding and military industrial complex — home to Newport News Shipbuilding (a division of HII), one of the country's largest and most strategically significant defense contractors — creating a therapy community serving a large workforce navigating the psychological pressures of national security-adjacent industrial work alongside the region's substantial military population. The city has a large African American population with deep community roots in the Peninsula, and culturally affirming therapists who understand racial trauma, community resilience, and the particular dynamics of working-class Black life in Hampton Roads are an important part of the local landscape. Riverside Regional Medical Center provides institutional mental health resources alongside a private therapy community. Newport News shares the Hampton Roads mental health ecosystem with Norfolk, Virginia Beach, and Hampton, and residents often access care across the region.
