Therapists in Boyce, VA

I am a licensed clinical social worker with over 15 years of experience in helping people find solutions to their problems. Over the years, I have been told by clients that they really feel that I am listening to them and trying to understand what is going on in their lives and how they feel. Clients have also told me that they do not feel any sense of judgment, but rather that I accept them for who they are and where they are in their life’s journey. My style is empathetic and solution focused. I will spend time asking you questions in order to get to know you and try to find out what is at the heart of your issue. Together, we will talk about possible avenues you may want to take, or changes you may want to consider. I may give you some “homework” assignments…things to write out or think about, worksheets to complete, or even techniques/exercises to practice in your own time so that some of what we discuss in our sessions is reinforced. Most of all, I will be an objective listener, helping you to gain insight into what is going on with you, so that you are able to make the choices and changes you want to, in your own time. I look forward to working with you!

Namaste, my name is Ashwini Gupta. I am a Therapist, Intuitive Life Coach, Shamanic Practitioner, Animal Communicator, and soul-level intuitive channel with 20+ years of experience supporting individuals through life transitions, anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship challenges, and spiritual growth. My approach blends Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Vedanta, mindfulness-based practices, and intuitive healing to help clients reconnect with their deeper sense of self, purpose, and inner wisdom. I offer a warm, grounded, and non-judgmental space where clients can explore their struggles while also moving toward a more meaningful and values-aligned life. ACT supports psychological flexibility by helping clients relate differently to difficult thoughts and emotions while taking values-guided action. Vedanta offers a spiritual framework for understanding the soul’s divine nature, the oneness of existence, and the deeper meaning behind our human experiences. In addition to being a therapist, I also offer shamanic practice, animal communication, and soul-level intuitive channeling through my private practice. While these esoteric modalities are separate from traditional therapy services, they deeply influence the grounded, intuitive, and spiritually informed presence I bring to my work with therapy clients. My intention is to support clients in feeling more connected to themselves, their values, their inner knowing, and the larger web of life around them.

Life is ever changing; the challenge is to be able to manage and keep moving forward while maintaining a positive and healthy mindset. Most of the time the answers to our questions, fears and even desires are just a matter of reaching forward to take action and working through it. Let's work together, I'm here to help. We are communal beings and benefit from the assistance of someone coming along side us to help. That is what I believe therapy is a collaborative effort to reach your desired goals. I am a graduate of Regent University (2011) with a Master's degree in counseling, a National Certified Counselor (NCC) and a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Virginia, and a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) in Florida.

As a Licensed Professional counselor and Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor, I have over 35 years experience. I have worked with all age groups across many dimensions, including outpatient, inpatient, residential, and emergency hospital settings. Areas I have worked with include, but are not limited to are depression, anxiety, relationship issues, communication issues, addictions, dependency and anger management. I generally take a cognitive behavioral approach, but do not limit my approach, but tailor my treatment to the individual client needs. I am generally laid back and very accepting in nature, but I also will be direct when I feel it is needed. I also like to instill some humor in therapy, but only when appropriate and not at the clients expense. It takes courage to reach out to someone for help, and I will support you in your endeavor. I believe therapy is about change, and it will take motivation and action on the client's part to make that change. But I will be there to support you in the process.
