Do you offer in-person and virtual individual therapy?

Yes. We offer in-person individual therapy in Arlington, Virginia and virtual therapy for clients located in Virginia, Maryland, Washington DC, West Virginia, South Carolina, and Florida.

Do you take insurance?

We are an out-of-network practice. This allows us to provide highly individualized, specialized care. We can provide documentation for out-of-network reimbursement.

How often will we meet?

Most clients begin with weekly sessions as we get acquainted. Frequency can be adjusted initially or over time based on your needs, goals, and stage of treatment.

Can I work with a dietitian and therapist at the same time?

Yes. Our collaborative model allows you to receive coordinated care with both a therapist and registered dietitian when appropriate.

Is individual therapy only for eating disorders?

No. While eating disorder recovery is a core specialty, we also work with anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship concerns, perinatal mental health, life transitions, and identity development.

Do you offer supervision for pre-licensed therapists?

Yes. We provide individual and group clinical supervision for therapists seeking specialized, relationship-centered support and enhanced knowledge in working with any of the specialty focuses that our Board Approved Clinical Supervisors have. You can learn more about our team here

Individual Therapy for Lasting, Real-Life Change

Individual therapy at Balanceworks Counseling offers a supportive, structured space to slow down, understand yourself more deeply, and begin making meaningful shifts in the patterns that no longer work.

Many of our clients come in with strong insight but feel stuck when it comes to creating consistent change. Together, we move beyond coping toward real transformation in your relationship with yourself, your health, your work, and the people who matter most to you.

We work with children, teens, college students, and adults navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, eating disorders, body image concerns, life transitions, identity development, and relationship challenges.

Sessions are available in person in Arlington, VA and virtually across VA, MD, DC, WV, SC, and FL.

How We Work

Our approach is collaborative, relational, and grounded in both evidence-based care and emotional attunement. Therapy is not something we do to you, it’s a process we build together.

We focus on helping you:

understand the patterns that keep you feeling stuck
develop practical, sustainable skills
increase emotional awareness and self-trust
create change that shows up in daily life

Treatment is always tailored to your needs, your goals, and your pace.

We also collaborate with dietitians, psychiatrists, physicians, and other providers when helpful, because healing often happens in a connected system of support.
