“Be transformed by the renewing of your mind.”
Every session is one hour and held online, so you can meet from wherever you feel most comfortable — anywhere in Virginia.
Find healing and strength.
Sessions for adults, adolescents and children, built on your existing strengths. We set concrete goals and work towards them with structured, evidence-based techniques — because progress comes from action, not only from venting.
Rebuild your bond and find healing.
Sessions focused on strengthening your relationship — improving communication, working through conflict, and rebuilding emotional connection, grounded in a Christ-centered understanding of marriage and family.
Integrating truth, scripture, and spirituality with an evidence-based therapeutic approach.
Bringing a relationship with Christ into therapy can open up a perspective of mercy and care. Faith is never a substitute for clinical work here — it sits alongside it, making room for both honesty about what hurts and hope about what can change.
Whether you are wrestling with your faith, recovering from a painful experience in a religious community, or simply want a counselor who shares your values, you are welcome exactly as you are.
If something here sounds familiar, you are not alone — and it is treatable.
Feelings of sadness or loss of interest accompanied by changes in sleep, appetite, energy, concentration, or self-esteem.
Difficulty controlling negative thoughts and worry — including restlessness, fatigue, muscle tension, and disturbed sleep.
Intense, disturbing thoughts and feelings about a past experience — including flashbacks, nightmares, and feelings of anger, fear, sadness, or detachment.
Carrying the loss of someone or something that mattered, and finding a way to hold both the grief and the life that continues.
Anger that arrives faster or heavier than the moment calls for, and the strain it puts on the people closest to you.
Persistent negative and critical thoughts about oneself — “I’m not good enough” — leading to feelings of sadness, anger, anxiety, and worthlessness.
Recurring conflict, distance, or difficulty communicating with a spouse, family member, or friend.
Raising children with consistency and confidence — including discipline, connection, and the questions that come with forming a family in faith.
Difficulty with attention, organisation, follow-through, or impulsivity, and the frustration that builds around it.
Proven clinical modalities, applied alongside the fundamental truths of the Catholic faith. Not only venting — concrete action towards your goals.
Cognitive Behavioural Therapy — identifying the thought patterns driving how you feel and act, and deliberately changing them.
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy — making room for difficult feelings while committing to action that reflects your values.
ACT provides direction and meaning, while goals are milestones along the journey. Acting in alignment with your values fosters purpose and fulfillment.
A results-oriented approach that starts from what is already working and builds concrete, achievable next steps.

“You, Lord, are forgiving and good, abounding in love to all who call to you.”
Welcome to Barrios Family Counseling. As a devout Catholic, I integrate Christian values into our work to build a truth-filled life rooted in virtue, faith, and wisdom.
My goal is to build a trusting, Christ-centered therapeutic relationship by applying therapeutic techniques with the fundamental truths of the Catholic faith, helping people of all ages navigate personal challenges and build upon their inherent strengths. I believe it is not only about venting, but taking concrete action towards your goals.
I work with a variety of issues, such as those struggling with depression, anxiety, trauma, grief, anger, self-esteem, relationship issues, parenting challenges, and ADHD. My practice incorporates evidence-based modalities, including EMDR, CBT, ACT and Solution-Focused Therapy, to provide a structured and results-oriented path toward progress.
