Kristee Barker
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW-S
I work with clients who experience chronic or recurring suicidal thoughts, especially when those thoughts are tied to trauma, shame, overwhelm, or parts of you that feel exhausted from carrying so much for so long. Using IFS, DBT, and other trauma‑informed approaches, I help you understand the protective parts of you that use suicidal thinking to cope, and we build safer, more sustainable ways to manage distress. My style is gentle and directive — focused on grounding, emotional regulation, and helping you create distance from the thoughts that feel urgent or consuming. Together, we work to strengthen the parts of you that want to live, heal, and feel connected again.

Andrea Miller
Counselor/Therapist, NCC
As a therapist, employing Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) to address suicidal thoughts is a deeply empathetic and structured journey. Through a combination of validation, skill-building, and creating a safety plan, I collaborate closely with individuals to help them cope with intense emotions and develop healthier ways of navigating distress. The DBT framework provides a lifeline, offering tangible tools and strategies that empower clients to build resilience, find hope, and ultimately move beyond the shadows of suicidal ideation towards a more stable and fulfilling 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.
