Table of Contents
For more than a decade, Sunstone Counseling has been serving the Northern Virginia community’s mental health needs and is excited to bring high-quality and accessible counseling services to Henrico. “We know that now more than ever, people are looking for professional help to meet their mental health needs, which is why we’re honored and excited to open our Glen Allen location,” said Katie Clark, LPC, and Sunstone Co-owner.Conveniently located in the Innsbrook neighborhood, Sunstone’s newest office supports adults, children, teens, couples, and families. The caring and compassionate team includes counselors with a range of experience designed to offer mental health therapy at a price clients can afford. Mental Health IS HealthAt Sunstone Counseling, we envision a world where seeing a therapist is as encouraged as seeing a primary care doctor—where people grappling with emotional and relational challenges can easily access the professional services they need to not only survive, but thrive.Oftentimes, when someone hears the phrase “mental health,” their mind jumps to scenarios of life-changing diagnoses such as bipolar disorder or schizophrenia. And while it is critical that we talk openly about mental illness, mental health is much more expansive and pervasive than that. Everyone faces mental health challenges in their life. Our mental health determines how we show up in the world–how we interact in relationships, handle stress, and make decisions. It can also play a role–positive or negative–in our physical health, as research on the mind-body connection has shown. This means that paying attention to our mental health isn’t a luxury or something that only certain people should do. Attending to our mental health should be as commonplace as supporting our physical health through exercise, healthy eating, and check-ups. And just like with our physical bodies, when we’re experiencing emotional dysregulation, it’s critical that we address it with help from a professional counselor. 
Sunstone is Here for the Metro Richmond CommunityWith increased rates of anxiety and depression in our own community, we recognize that finding a therapist has become increasingly difficult, with many counselors having little or no availability. Additionally, we know that therapy can be expensive, making it out of reach for many people who need it. We’re committed to minimizing the barriers that can prevent individuals from getting the professional support they need. We’ve put our clients’ needs at the center of what we do by:- Offering different counselors for different budgets. We believe that taking care of your mental health is not a luxury – it’s a necessity. We have a range of counselors – from graduate interns to licensed specialists – that offer different rates to fit your budget.
- Growing our team of counselors. Finding a counselor who is accepting new clients during these challenging times is its own challenge! Our growing Henrico team is currently comprised of 12 counselors with varied levels of training and experience – and therefore price points – available to serve our community.
- Making both virtual and in-person sessions available. We recognize that many clients prefer the safety and convenience of virtual counseling. We continue to offer our clients the option of online/video sessions in addition to face-to-face meetings.
