Lisa Tomala

Ashburn, Virginia - Licensed Professional Counselor
Online
In Person

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) and a National Certified Counselor (NCC). I have a B.A. in Psychology from George Mason University and an M.S. in Professional Counseling from Grand Canyon University. Prior to joining Better Help, I worked with active-duty service members experiencing PTSD, and teens and adults struggling with depression, anxiety, trauma, life transitions, substance abuse, and grief. As someone who has personally worked through her own grief, I truly empathize with people struggling with loss. For those wishing to incorporate their religious beliefs into treatment, I can incorporate the principles of Thomistic philosophy. I utilize an eclectic approach, incorporating Psychodynamic, Cognitive-Behavioral, Motivational Interviewing, and Solution-Focused treatment modalities to help people live their best lives. I am fascinated by the root causes of behavior, which can usually be found in our early experiences. Sometimes our circuits simply need a bit of rewiring to help us view the world, events, and ourselves a bit better. I move at your pace, focusing on current symptoms and shifting from existing to thriving. I'll walk with you as you create new meaning for a healthy, authentic new life. I work with clients to create an open and safe environment where thoughts and feelings can be shared without fear of judgment. It takes courage to seek out a more fulfilling and happier life and to take the first steps towards change. I am here to support & empower you in that journey. In her free time, Lisa enjoys spending time with her family, Australian Cattle dog, painting, and hiking.

Cheryl Coney

Ashburn, Virginia - Licensed Professional Counselor
Online
In Person

Since entering this field in 2007, I have worked with clients with a wide range of concerns including depression, anxiety, relationship issues, parenting problems, career challenges, addictions, OCD, and ADHD. I also helped many people who have experienced physical trauma or emotional abuse. Currently, I hold a credential as a Licensed Professional Counselor. I really just want to be a part of the solution. I seek to help my clients develop their definition of success and begin working toward it. I bring enthusiasm, professionalism, and unconditional positive regard to the treatment setting so I can help my clients build confidence in exploring their feelings and fearlessly divorce behaviors that compromise a healthy lifestyle. My intention is to empower them to examine their truths from different perspectives and to challenge their own perceptions. I have worked with adolescents and adults in residential, inpatient, and outpatient settings. I earned a Bachelor’s of Science degree in Social Work in 2011 from Slippery Rock University and I obtained a Master’s of Science degree in Counseling Psychology in 2016 from Chatham University in Pittsburgh. My therapy style is warm and interactive. I believe in treating anyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion, and I don't believe in stigmatizing labels. My approach combines cognitive-behavioral, dialectic, humanistic therapies. I will tailor our dialogue and treatment plan to meet your unique and specific needs. I believe in the client-centered and meeting clients where they are. Without client input, the treatment planning process is ineffective. Whatever your challenge, you didn't arrive at this space overnight, and regardless of how you arrived here, together, we can skillfully develop an effective solution to improve your quality of life. I look forward to working with you!
