I believes in meeting people where they are with their mental health and substance use needs while providing strategies and techniques to help them move in the direction of their choice. I utilize an integrative approach for therapy, focusing on all aspects of mind, body, and spirit.

Amy Parsons is a Licensed Professional Counselor and National Certified Counselor based in Virginia, offering virtual-only therapy. She earned her Master’s degree in Licensed Professional Counseling from Liberty University. Amy works with adults, children, and teens, specializing in anxiety, depression, trauma, personality disorders, and life transitions. She is trained in EMDR and uses a client-centered, evidence-based approach that integrates CBT, DBT, and mindfulness. Known for her warm, collaborative style, she provides a safe space for individuals and families to explore challenges, build resilience, and create lasting change.

Every individual deserves a warm and caring environment in which they feel heard, supported, and understood. I believe all people can benefit from counseling, no matter the situation or season of life they may be in. I believe in meeting people where they are while helping them establish hope and health as a foundation of their self-growth. I have found I work best with adolescent girls and women who are motivated to change.  I specialize in helping those suffering with symptoms of depression, anxiety, anger, behavioral issues, relationship issues, self-esteem, stress management, interpersonal conflicts, and childhood trauma.

 One of the most important aspects of therapy is the relationship built on trust and respect. Using a person-centered approach, I allow each client to have a safe space to share their journey. I utilize a variety of modalities depending on the best fit for each person. I use an integrative and client-centered approach to personalize each experience.

As an outpatient therapist, my goal is to create a safe, nonjudgemental environment for you. I would love to walk along side of you in the journey of self-exploration, self-growth, and self-healing.
