Play Therapy for Children and Trauma Informed CBT, DBT and EMDR for Teens, Young Adults, and Adults Near Stafford, Virginia
Thrive Counseling for Healing and Connection supports individuals and families in Stafford, Virginia through a combination of in-person therapy at our Fredericksburg office and secure online therapy across Virginia.
Life can pull you in many directions at once — stress, relationships, family responsibilities, old wounds, and expectations you never asked for. Therapy offers a space to slow down, feel understood, and begin meaningful change with support that feels grounded and relational.
Our downtown Fredericksburg office is a short drive from Stafford, making Thrive an accessible option for both in-person and telehealth care.
In-Person and Online Therapy Options for Stafford Clients
Many Stafford clients choose Thrive because they can access both in-person therapy and online therapy depending on their needs.
Some clients prefer the grounded connection of face-to-face sessions, while others value the flexibility of secure telehealth. Many move between both formats as life changes. We’ll work with you to determine what feels most supportive and sustainable.
Therapy for Children, Teens, Young Adults, and Adults
Stafford clients seek therapy at Thrive across many stages of life. Our services may include support for:
children through play-based therapy
teens navigating academic pressure, identity, and emotional stress
young adults facing transitions, relationships, and self-worth challenges
support for men navigating stress, relationships, identity, and emotional overwhelm.
adults managing burnout, trauma, and life transitions
women seeking space to reconnect, set boundaries, and heal
Rather than offering one-size-fits-all care, we focus on understanding each client’s story, goals, and emotional landscape.
Trauma-Informed Therapy and EMDR
Some Stafford clients reach out for therapy to address trauma, anxiety, or long-standing emotional patterns that feel difficult to shift.
EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) is an evidence-based therapy that supports the brain’s natural healing process. EMDR is available to Stafford clients both in person at our Fredericksburg office and through secure telehealth, when clinically appropriate.
EMDR can be especially helpful for experiences such as childhood trauma, attachment wounds, sexual or medical trauma, anxiety and panic, and persistent negative self-beliefs.
