Therapists Beginning With I in Virginia

Sometimes there are thoughts, memories and moods that are causing us distress. Often, when we try to express these to others, we are left feeling more confused about what we are feeling or misunderstood afterward. Sometimes words fail us and we cannot find the right way to express ourselves and then we find ourselves repeating the same cycles. I have found in my work that when words fail, art can help us bridge that language dead-end. I am a registered Art Therapist; I believe that art is innately human and can provide a safe space to initiate growth and change in individuals.

Are you a 30+ woman who is twice exceptional (intelligent and ADHD), feeling overwhelmed? Is it even harder because your parents are accomplished people, and you feel like you can't keep up with expectations? You are hardworking and others count on you. But there are days when it feels like it takes all you have just to get dressed and out the door. Your brain either supercharged or foggy, and you can't often predict which it will be. So you sometimes feel like an Impostor who is just "pulling it off". You had trauma, recently or in the past, which doesn't help. You are ready for change, but you need to be understood.

The use of Ketamine, a psychedelic anesthetic safely used for decades, in mental health and chronic pain treatment is continuously evolving, and early studies have shown significant results. In sub-anesthetic doses, ketamine has been shown to alleviate symptoms of conditions such as treatment-resistant depression, anxiety, post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) and chronic pain with better, faster, and longer-lasting relief than traditional medications. Ketamine therapy can often bring about a noticeable improvement in symptoms within hours or days of treatment.
