Shay Malone
Pre-Licensed Professional, Ed.S., Resident in Counseling
According to my clients, one of the things they most appreciate about me is that I listen - actually listen - to what is said and unsaid. I don't tell them how they should or shouldn't feel. My first step is understanding what is bringing you to therapy. Then, I focus on learning about your life and all the different parts that impact you: your specific brain, your family, your work, which parts of your identity matter most to you, and your social and economic stressors. And as I understand you better, I offer support as well as interventions to move you toward your goals.
As a single parent of 3 boys with varying presentations of ADHD and autism, I am very familiar with parenting stresses. I have worked in a variety of positions, from education to foster care to Medicaid services, and I use all of those experiences to support my clients. I like to say that I am the expert in counseling, but you are the expert on you.

Richmond is Virginia's state capital and a city confronting its identity as the former capital of the Confederacy — a historical weight that has made racial equity, community healing, and the legacy of slavery active and ongoing conversations in clinical, academic, and public life. The city's significant African American community, its rapidly growing Latino population, and a large university sector anchored by Virginia Commonwealth University collectively shape diverse and evolving therapy demand. VCU Health and Bon Secours Richmond Health System provide major institutional mental health resources, while VCU's extensive psychology, counseling, and social work programs supply significant clinical training to the community. Richmond's growing arts and creative economy, rapid gentrification of historically Black neighborhoods, and strong LGBTQ+ community each contribute distinct dimensions to its therapy culture.
