Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC
Life is full of changes, and even the ones we choose can leave us feeling lost, overwhelmed, or unsure of who we are on the other side. At Alabaster Counseling, we specialize in helping girls and women navigate the many transitions that life brings, including becoming a mother, adjusting to an empty nest, going through a divorce, changing careers, losing a loved one, or simply stepping into a new season of life that feels unfamiliar. We understand that transitions can stir up grief, anxiety, and uncertainty even when they are positive, and we are here to help you process all of it. Through evidence-based therapy and genuine compassionate support, we help you find your footing, reconnect with your sense of purpose, and move forward with clarity and confidence.

Alton Wampler
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC-S
From an Internal Family Systems perspective, life transitions often activate multiple parts that hold fear, uncertainty, or resistance to change. Protective parts may attempt to maintain stability through control, avoidance, or self-criticism, while more vulnerable parts carry anxiety about the unknown or loss. Therapy supports clients in accessing Self to compassionately understand these reactions, fostering flexibility and helping the system adapt to new roles and circumstances.

19 Years Experience

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.
