Bridgette Chase, LPC — Therapist in Virginia

Hi there, I'm Bridgette!

I work with adults specializing in anxiety, depression, stress, and Christian counseling. I use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and solution-focused therapy to empower you and invoke meaningful change in your life.

My focus

I work best with adults dealing with life transitions and social pressures, often showing up as anxiety, depression, stress, and perfectionism. I help you navigate these periods, build skills to feel better about yourself, and develop a more positive outlook on life.

My approach

I use Solution-Focused and Reality Therapy to get started with movement quickly. I'll challenge you to imagine new ways of being, assign homework to support growth between sessions, and demonstrate unconditional belief in your ability to be empowered.

My communication style

My communication style is calm, accommodating, and personable. I'm direct but encouraging. I want you to feel comfortable talking with me about anything, and I pride myself on listening without judgment, self-righteousness, or condemnation.

My journey to mental healthcare

I was born and raised to assist others. I'm a natural caregiver who sees the inherent good in all people. I'm gifted at empowering and encouraging others, and I enjoy watching growth occur when clients gain closure or new insight.

My goals for you

My approach to goal setting is about working together to define what you want to accomplish. This starts by building trust and getting comfortable with what it means to be in therapy. Over time, we'll set goals and track your progress together.

Our first session

You can expect to walk away feeling heard, supported, and gently pushed to see new possibilities. I work from a strength-based model involving spiritual, emotional, physical, and mental dimensions. Initially, I focus on rapport building and hearing your story. I want you to feel comfortable and go at your pace.
