About
Having personally experienced the therapeutic process following a traumatic loss, I have a genuine understanding of the courage and strength it can take to sit across from someone you’ve never met and share your story.
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.

My go-to approach for helping people in family therapy is listening to all sides. I find the best benefit in every member of a family system feeling equally heard and respected, as all individuals together make the family.
In family therapy, I like to trouble-shoot practical issues as well as teach some general tools:
I know a family is making meaningful progress in family therapy when each member expresses greater understanding of others's perspectives within the family.
Clients can supplement their time in family therapy by establishing routine family time during which they can practice the communication skills and other tools we've covered in sessions.
To prepare for their first family therapy session, each member can spend some time reflecting on their personal values and on what they would love to see their family as in the future after successful counseling.
Family therapy helps families resolve conflicts and strengthen their relationships. It is led by qualified mental health professionals like psychologists, licensed professional counselors (LPCs), and licensed clinical social workers (LCSWs) who have extensive training in family dynamics and group communication.
Thriveworks family therapists in Midlothian, VA usually begin by asking what everyone’s goals are for family counseling. Family members may need help with very specific issues or with general relationship functioning. But there are three main purposes in family counseling: to educate, to counsel, and to strengthen. Thriveworks also offers online family therapy and in-person services, so you may all meet in an office together or join a video call from your home depending on everyone’s location and availability.
The most effective form of Family therapy will often depend on the family itself, as there are many types of family therapy for therapists to use as they see fit in order to best meet the needs of their clients. However, one of the most commonly used types of family therapy is structural family therapy (SFT). SFT focuses specifically on family dynamics and interactions, looking at how they shape the relationships and structure present in the family. It can be effectively used to treat a variety of concerns.
This answer often looks different to each family that starts family therapy. However, some signs that your family might need to consider family counseling include frequent fights or misunderstandings, constant tension, experiencing loss, behavioral issues, marital issues, divorce, and blended family issues, among others.
In family therapy, therapists will often start by asking questions and assessing individual and family dynamics. From there, they may employ therapeutic techniques such as structured family therapy, CBT, strategic family therapy, and more depending on the present concerns and conflicts. From there, a therapist will work to open lines of communication between family members and facilitate emotional healing and growth.
Family therapy can be incredibly successful, with some studies reporting a success rate of almost 90% for improving participants’ emotional and mental health, and around 66% for improving their physical health.
Thriveworks therapists in Midlothian, VA offer both online family therapy and in-person family therapy. We encourage you to choose the option that works best for you.
Family therapy is usually short term and solution-focused, with most families accomplishing their goals in 12 sessions or fewer. However, it can also last for longer if the probles at hand are more complex — and that’s okay, too.
When family dynamics are thrown off, it makes life for that family even more difficult, not to mention it hurts every individual’s mental health. In the realm of today’s busy society, life is going a thousand miles a minute—and it’s easy to lose focus on building a strong foundation with your loved ones. At Thriveworks Midlothian, we know that family is important, and we are ready and willing to help your family get back on track. Family therapy at Thriveworks Midlothian offers families a space to learn and grow together. If this sounds like something you could benefit from, reach out to Thriveworks Midlothian today to schedule.
