LEGACY MENTAL HEALTH CONSULTING SERVICES
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
Legacy Mental Health Consulting Services provides compassionate, evidence‑based support for individuals experiencing Body‑Focused Repetitive Behaviors such as hair‑pulling, skin‑picking, nail‑biting, and related habits. We understand how overwhelming and isolating these behaviors can feel, and we work collaboratively to help clients reduce urges, interrupt automatic patterns, and build healthier coping strategies. Using approaches like CBT, DBT, mindfulness, and habit‑reversal techniques, we guide clients in understanding triggers, managing stress, and developing greater control and self‑confidence. Our goal is to create a safe, non‑judgmental space where clients can heal, regain a sense of mastery over their behaviors, and move toward a more balanced and empowered life.

Newport News is defined by its location at the heart of the Hampton Roads shipbuilding and military industrial complex — home to Newport News Shipbuilding (now 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.
