Opal Carrico, LPC — Therapist in Virginia

Hi there, I'm Opal!

I specialize in helping individuals navigate the challenges of addiction and maintain long-term sobriety. I work with diverse populations experiencing depression and anxiety. I look forward to helping you on your journey of healing.

My focus

I work with adults experiencing addiction and mental health challenges. I have specialized experience helping women with addiction during pregnancy and post-partum.

My approach

I utilize Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, and Motivational Interviewing to help you develop practical skills and strengthen your motivation for change.

My communication style

I prefer my clients to feel like someone is listening to them; my environment is relaxed and nonjudgmental.

My journey to mental healthcare

I have a personal history of family addiction and mental health. I want to see others succeed, understand their potential, and know that people care and want to help.

My goals for you

I approach goal setting collaboratively, allowing you to establish what you want to achieve. I prefer a person-centered approach that honors your unique needs and strengths.
