Our counselors provide marriage counseling in Blacksburg, VA

I specialize in working with people with ADHD and autism, as well as anyone looking for a space where they can feel genuinely heard. As your therapist, I will not be another voice telling you to push through and make things work when they just won't. I will show up as a kind, calm person who's ready to meet you where you are without judgement. I’ll take the time to get to know you, learn what matters to you, and work with you to create the change you're looking for. If you're feeling overwhelmed and unsure about where to even begin, that's okay. We can figure it out together!

In our sessions, you’ll have space to talk openly about whatever is on your mind. I can offer structure, feedback, and practical guidance when that’s helpful, while also giving you room to slow down, sort through your thoughts and emotions, and make sense of what you’re experiencing.

You deserve a life that is authentic and feels like your own. We can talk, get to know each other a little, and see if working together feels like a good fit. I'm available to work virtually with anyone in VA.

I am Tamica Edmonds, a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) with nine years of experience working with children, adolescents, and adults with depression, anxiety, mood disorders, ADD/ADHD, PTSD, relationship issues, trauma, and co-occurring substance use disorders. I utilize an eclectic approach including Motivational Interviewing, person-centered therapy, solution-focused therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy, and play therapy. I believe that empowering clients through genuineness, openness, and transparency helps create a therapeutic relationship built on mutual respect and trust, where clients feel heard, valued, and supported. 

My approach is grounded in genuineness and collaboration. I use strengths-based and client-centered methods to help clients feel heard and empowered. I incorporate trauma-informed practices while prioritizing safety, trust, and readiness for change. My goal is to meet each client where they are and help them develop effective coping strategies.

Taking the first step doesn't require having everything figured out—just a willingness to begin. Therapy provides a safe space to explore and reflect. Together, we can uncover your strengths and work toward meaningful change. You deserve to be heard, supported, and given the opportunity to grow. When you're ready, I invite you to schedule a session.

I'm April Gardner, a Mental Health Resident with seven years of experience supporting individuals and couples. I work with clients navigating anxiety, depression, family challenges, and communication barriers between partners, including ADHD-related dynamics. I offer a faith-based Christian counseling perspective for those who want faith woven into their healing, and I run groups for ADHD and Search for Significance, a faith-centered approach to self-worth. I'm here to walk beside you through the hard parts.

My approach blends psychoeducation with faith-based support and hands-on practice between sessions. Homework isn't boring worksheets. It's creative experiments and novel experiences that fit how your brain works. Whether we're tackling ADHD, couple communication, or self-worth, you'll get clear tools, real goals, and progress you can see.

Whatever brought you here, you don't have to carry it alone anymore. Taking the first step is often the hardest part, and showing up for yourself is already courage. When you're ready, I'd be honored to walk beside you. You deserve support that meets you where you are.
