Sally Goh, LPC — Therapist in Virginia

Hi there, I'm Sally!

I draw on evidence-based therapies to guide clients through life's transitions and uncertainties with compassion, practical skills, and clarity.

My focus

I incorporate practical homework with the goal to nurture your insights and improve your cognitive flexibility and growth between sessions, and hold an unwavering faith in your resilience and potential for transformation.

My approach

Every therapeutic partnership is one-of-a-kind, but my approach often weaves in psychoeducation about the brain—exploring how it functions and harnesses neuroplasticity to rewire unhelpful patterns and habits—while inviting you to envision fresh paths forward.

My communication style

I embrace grace-informed counseling as a foundational lens—one that honors the profound impact of suffering and trauma on the mind, body, and spirit while fostering a healing journey without re-traumatization. This approach shifts from asking “What's wrong with you?” to “What happened to you?”

My journey to mental healthcare

My journey includes lived experiences as an adult child of immigrant parents, a parent to young adults, a first-generation college and graduate student, an active community participant, and a supportive neighbor to folks from varied cultural and faith traditions.

My goals for you

Here's my pledge to you: I'll equip you with tailored problem-solving tools wherever you need them, and I'll celebrate every stride you take with genuine enthusiasm and encouragement.

Our first session

From our first session together, you will leave feeling truly seen, warmly heard, and gently nudged to uncover, embrace, and implement skills toward becoming the best version of yourself that you envision.
