Welcome! My name is Hillary and I am a Licensed Professional Counselor, Certified Substance Abuse Counselor and National Board Certified Counselor in the Commonwealth of Virginia. I have worked in the field of mental health and substance use counseling since 1999 in a variety of settings facilitating both group and individual counseling. My counseling style is generally laid back and I have been described as supportive, caring, and non-judgmental, with a pretty good sense of humor. I like to focus on identifying a persons strengths and helping to maximize those strengths in order to overcome any obstacles you could be facing. I work from the Cognitive Behavioral perspective but I will use an infusion of different practices in order to help you work toward your treatment goals and objectives. I have experience working with individuals who have a wide range of concerns including relationship stress, anxiety, depression, phase of life challenges, grief and loss, stress management and substance use.
It takes courage to seek help for a more fulfilling and happier life and if you are ready to take that step, I am here to support and empower you.

These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Hillary Zaneveld. We don't pay anyone to provide their review and they are all made voluntarily. Some people's experience receiving therapy with BetterHelp might be different.
Hillary is the therapist I've been searching for, for so many years: professional yet fun, nonjudgmental, encouraging, wise, and patient. Oh, and nonjudgmental, lol!
