LEGACY MENTAL HEALTH CONSULTING SERVICES
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
Legacy Mental Health Consulting Services provides warm, respectful, and evidence‑based support for elderly persons disorders, including challenges related to aging, mood changes, cognitive decline, grief, medical stressors, and shifting independence. We understand the unique emotional and practical concerns older adults face, and we offer a steady, patient‑centered approach that honors each individual’s history, strengths, and values. Using therapeutic methods such as CBT, mindfulness, supportive counseling, and family‑focused interventions, we help clients manage anxiety, depression, memory‑related distress, and adjustment to life transitions.

Our goal is to support older adults in maintaining quality of life, connection, and confidence throughout the aging process.

Rebecca Castle-Waller
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
Hey Survivor, are you tired of feeling guilty and overwhelmed all the time? Everyone else seems so together and you're stuck battling your past? I get it. My name is Rebecca Castle-Waller and I help badass women with trauma become present in their lives and in their relationships, so you can actually enjoy this life you've built.
Many of my clients grew up in chaotic and unstable homes where from a young age they started taking care of others. Making meals, waking their parents up for work, getting their siblings off to school. From there, you went on to take care of your partner and your kiddos while also working hard to keep everything running smoothly. Now with retirement having freed up a lot of time you feel constantly stressed out and like you should be doing more. Oh, and you're doing all of this while facing nightmares, flashbacks, numbness, random waves of anger, and the like. Who's taking care of you?
Let's give you a space where you can be your messy, imperfect self so you can finally take care of you. It's time to heal your trauma, you've built an amazing life and you deserve to actually live it. It's never too early or too late to start living the life you've always deserved.

James C. Carpenter, PhD, ABPP
Psychologist, PhD (Clinical Psychology, Ohio State U), Board Certified in Clinical Psychology (ABPP), PSYPACT
As I have aged, I notice that my clientele has as well. I'd say these issues now occupy a good half of my clinical hours. Possibilities shrink, difficulties compound, loved ones pass away, memory slips and the body falters. My approach to these things is mainly existential, acknowledging the gravity of these changes and developing strategies of coping and courage and resilience to deal with these last developmental challenges of life.

Mirjana Ivanisevic, PhD
Psychologist, PhD
In my therapy practice, I emphasize the use of empathetic listening, compassionate guidance, and a collaborative process to help my clients meet their goals for therapy. I use a combination of active listening, validation, and challenging unhealthy patterns to help clients develop insight into the psychological underpinnings of their distress, we couple this with strategy building to use healthier coping strategies to improve their quality of life. I emphasize solution-focused strategies (e.g., skill building, cognitive and emotional processing) to introduce healthier coping strategies, strengthen their psychological health, and improve their quality of life.

Norfolk is home to Naval Station Norfolk — the world's largest naval base — and sits at the center of the Hampton Roads military metro, with a therapy community substantially defined by the needs of active-duty service members, veterans, and military families navigating deployment stress, PTSD, and the challenges of military life. The city's large African American population and history of racial inequity create consistent demand for culturally affirming therapists who work with racial trauma, community resilience, and intergenerational family dynamics. Sentara Norfolk General Hospital and the Hampton VA Medical Center provide major institutional mental health anchors for the region. Old Dominion University, which absorbed Eastern Virginia Medical School in 2024, maintains clinical training programs that feed practitioners into the broader Norfolk therapy community.
