Dr. Allison Williams
Psychologist, Psy.D.
I specialize in helping those who are anxious and overwhelmed learn to recognize and honor their needs - it may mean: giving yourself permission to slow down, scale back, set healthy boundaries, go after what you truly want, and be yourself (authentically and unapologetically). As your partner on this journey, I’ll help you muster your strength, foster your self-acceptance, and feel more at ease.
If you’ve always cast aside your own needs to give everyone and everything your all, I want to help you finally get what you deserve: better relationships, self-care, and greater life satisfaction.

Ylenia Martinez
Counselor/Therapist, LPC
I am a trauma‑informed therapist with advanced training in sexology who helps adults heal how trauma, culture, and identity shape their relationships, bodies, and sex lives. I work especially well with clients who “hold it all together” for everyone else while feeling anxious, shut down, or disconnected inside. In our work, we make room for the parts of you that have had to stay small or silent around desire, boundaries, faith, family, or reproductive experiences so you can move from survival mode toward more safety, choice, and aliveness in your own life.

Alton Wampler
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC-S
Finding a therapist who you connect with can be one of the most challenging steps of therapy. I believe that the relationship developed between the client and the clinician is the foundation of the work that will be completed during the therapeutic process. Creating a safe, non-judgmental environment is of the utmost importance to create change in your life. I enjoy working with clients who want to do deep inner work to address the root causes of the issues they are facing. This means that we will explore your internal world and compassionately connect with all parts of you in order to understand their roles, fears, and motivations. All parts of you are always welcome in the room.

Rebecca Castle-Waller
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
CURRENTLY ACCEPTING WAITLIST CLIENTS
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 work and relationships and family drama and life 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.

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.

In-Person Near Virginia Beach, VA
Online in Virginia Beach, VA Virginia
Virginia Beach and the surrounding Hampton Roads metro area have one of the highest concentrations of active-duty military personnel and veterans in the country, anchored by Naval Station Norfolk — the world's largest naval base — creating sustained demand for therapists who specialize in military trauma, PTSD, and the dynamics of military family life. Therapists experienced with moral injury, deployment-related adjustment, and service-to-civilian transition are well represented, and many practices specifically orient their care toward service members and their families. Sentara Healthcare and Bon Secours provide institutional mental health resources for the region, complemented by a growing private practice community. Virginia Beach's coastal environment and strong community ties give the city a relatively stable baseline, though the psychological weight of military life remains a defining feature of the local therapy landscape.
