More about Roseann
- 16 years' experience
- Female
- LCSW
I'm a licensed therapist in Virginia with extensive experience supporting individuals through some of life's most challenging experiences. I work with clients across the lifespan, with particular expertise in trauma and abuse, depression, and addiction recovery.
My approach is grounded in compassion and authenticity. I create a safe, nonjudgmental space where you can explore difficult emotions and experiences—including grief, shame, guilt, and feelings of abandonment. I'm skilled at helping clients navigate communication struggles, social anxiety, codependency patterns, and control issues, while building genuine self-compassion and resilience.
I've supported young adults through identity questions and life transitions, as well as individuals navigating postpartum depression and the complexities of mood disorders. Whether you're healing from trauma, working through addiction, or simply seeking to understand yourself more deeply, I'm here to walk alongside you with honesty and care.
My therapeutic style is collaborative and person-centered. I believe you are the expert of your own experience, and my role is to offer skilled support as you move toward healing and growth. Taking the step to seek therapy takes courage, and I'm honored to be part of your journey.

About online counseling
- Affordable.
- Pay a low flat fee.

Online counseling allows you to receive care from a mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.
