Professional Christian Counseling Services in Virginia & New York

Clinically Excellent & Distinctly Christian Counseling

At Light Counseling, we provide more than just a listening ear; we offer a path to healing that aligns with Biblical values. When mental health challenges arise, such as stress, anxiety, death of a loved one, or family conflict, they often affect your physical health, work, relationships and everyday life.

Our approach is distinctly Christian. We integrate evidence-based psychological principles with Biblical truth to offer a holistic path to wellness. Whether you visit our offices for in-person sessions or utilize our Telehealth Counseling services available in nearly all 50 states, our licensed professionals are ready to help you find hope.

Individual, Marriage, and Group Counseling Options

We offer a variety of therapeutic settings designed to meet your specific needs and comfort level.

Individual Counseling

Our individual sessions provide a confidential, one-on-one environment to address personal struggles. We work with men, women, adolescents, and children to develop tailored strategies for growth.

 

  • Adolescent & Teen Counseling: Navigating identity, peer pressure, and school stress.

  • Counseling for Men & Women: Addressing career stress, life transitions, and emotional health.

Marriage & Family Counseling

Relationships are the foundation of our lives, but they can be complicated. We help couples and families navigate poor communication, trust issues, infidelity, and intimacy concerns.

 

  • Couples Therapy: Restore connection and rebuild broken trust.

  • Family Sessions: Resolve household conflict and foster healthier dynamics.

Group Counseling

You do not have to walk this road alone. Our group counseling sessions offer a supportive community and accountability. We lead groups for addiction recovery, trauma, and general support, allowing you to heal alongside others who understand your journey.

Medication Management, Psychological Testing & Coaching

Beyond traditional talk therapy, we offer specialized clinical services to ensure your care covers every aspect of your well-being.

Medication Management

Sometimes, biological factors require medical support. Our psychiatric providers work collaboratively with your counselor to manage medications, ensuring your treatment addresses both the mind and the body.

Psychological Testing Services

We provide professional psychological evaluations to offer clarity and direction. Whether you need testing for ADHD, learning differences, or personality assessments, our data-driven approach helps create an effective roadmap for your care.

For those seeking goal-oriented guidance rather than clinical processing, our coaching services help you unlock your potential, set actionable goals, and move forward in your personal or professional life.

Frequently Asked Questions

What types of counseling does Light Counseling offer?

Light Counseling provides individual, group, and family counseling to address a wide range of issues, including addiction, trauma, anxiety, and eating disorders. Each therapy type is tailored to meet specific needs and goals.

What should I expect during my first therapy session?

During your first therapy session, you’ll discuss your concerns and goals with your therapist, who will work with you to develop a personalized treatment plan. This session is an opportunity to build rapport and begin exploring your needs.

Can I switch therapists if I’m not comfortable?

Yes, we understand that the therapeutic relationship is important. If you feel that a different therapist might better meet your needs, we can assist you in finding someone who is a better fit.

How much does counseling cost?

The total out-of-pocket cost for counseling depends on your insurance plan, and because we deal with multiple insurance companies, it’s challenging to provide a public estimate. At Light, we’re committed to making counseling affordable – and we do this by accepting various insurance plans (including Medicaid) and keeping costs low. Contact us today for an estimate!
