Kerrie O'Leary-Sanchez, LCP, LCP — Therapist in Virginia

Hi there, I'm Kerrie!

I'm a clinical psychologist with a diverse background dedicated to helping people navigate life’s challenges with kindness and empathy. I have worked with children, adolescents, adults, couples, and families in a variety of settings. I was also Navy Psychologist.

My focus

I provide treatment for people who are struggling with trauma-related symptoms that are negatively impacting their lives and their relationships.

My approach

I provide Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help you address what you are struggling with. I specialize in treating complex trauma and traumatic brain injury. I strive to create an environment that is warm and supportive so you will feel comfortable working through life's challenges.

My communication style

I prioritize collaboration, you are the expert in your experience. I help support you through difficulties.

My journey to mental healthcare

I have 16 years of clinical experience as both a master's and doctoral level provider. I have worked in outpatient, inpatient, intensive outpatient, home, and school based settings. I became a mental health provider in order to support those who need it.

My goals for you

I see therapy as a collaboration. We set goals together based on your needs and reassess as you progress.

Our first session

I prioritize collaboration in creating treatment goals so that they are the right fit for the person in front of me. Sessions with me are typically focused on providing support while keeping long term goals in mind. My job is to help you heal.
