Light Counseling's Christiansburg office serves the New River Valley — including Blacksburg, Radford, Pulaski, and Montgomery County. For many clients in this area, quality mental health care options are limited. We're here to close that gap, with licensed therapists who bring both clinical expertise and Christian faith to the work.
Clients sometimes drive an hour or more to reach us — not because they have to, but because finding a counselor you trust matters more than convenience. If in-person isn't possible, telehealth is available across Virginia and most states.

Common Reasons Clients Come to Us
Depression
Depression goes beyond feeling down — it's a persistent condition that can interfere with work, relationships, sleep, and daily functioning. Our Christiansburg counselors help you identify what's driving it and build practical, sustainable strategies for moving through it. If you're searching for depression counseling in Blacksburg or Christiansburg, our team is ready to help.
Anxiety
Clinical anxiety can manifest as persistent worry, panic, or a constant sense of unease that won't let up. Our counselors use evidence-based approaches — including cognitive behavioral therapy — to help you understand your anxiety patterns and build effective coping strategies.
Trauma and PTSD
Trauma leaves marks that don't just fade on their own. Whether your experience was recent or years ago, our Christiansburg counselors are trained in trauma-informed care and can help you process what happened and move forward. See our trauma and PTSD page for more.
Marriage and Relationships
Our Christiansburg office regularly sees couples working through communication breakdown, infidelity, disconnection, and the strain of major life transitions. See our Christian marriage counseling and premarital counseling pages for what that work typically looks like.
Addiction
Addiction isolates. Our counselors work with clients navigating recovery from alcohol, pornography, substance use, and behavioral dependencies — with a clinical approach that can incorporate faith if that's meaningful to you. See our addiction counseling page for more.
Faith-based or secular — your call. Our Christiansburg counselors integrate Christian principles and optional prayer for clients who want that. For clients who prefer secular therapy, we provide evidence-based care without the faith component. Just let us know when you call.
