Carin Hamilton, LCSW

Psychotherapist
VA
I am a veteran, mother, and change agent who entered this field with a strong belief in each person’s ability to create meaningful change in their own life. I’ve seen firsthand how insight, support, and the right tools can shift the way people think, feel, and show up for themselves and others. I view therapy as a space for clarity, growth, and real transformation; we're not just talking, but doing the work that leads to lasting change. My approach is integrative and personalized, drawing from evidence-based modalities and adapting them to meet each client’s unique needs. In our first session together, here's what you can expect Your first session is a space for you to be heard and understood. We’ll talk about what’s been going on, what’s been weighing on you, and what you’re hoping to get out of therapy. I’ll ask some questions to better understand your experiences, and together we’ll begin identifying goals and a path forward. There’s no pressure to have everything figured out......just come as you are. The biggest strengths that I bring into our sessions My therapeutic approach combines insight, action, and intentional challenge. I help clients better understand their patterns while also gently challenging the thoughts, beliefs, and perspectives that may be keeping them stuck. I support clients in building healthier mindsets, stronger coping skills, and more grounded ways of moving through life. The clients I'm best positioned to serve I am best positioned to serve adolescents ages 12 and older and adults who are ready to better understand themselves, their relationships, and the patterns that may be keeping them stuck. I work well with clients navigating life transitions, emotional stress, relationship concerns, and a desire for healthier, more grounded ways of coping. I welcome clients of all gender identities, backgrounds, and socioeconomic statuses.

Carin Hamilton, LCSW has 150+ in-network plans.

Don’t see your insurance?

It’s common for mental health providers to be out-of-network. Many insurance plans offer out-of-network coverage, so you may get partially reimbursed. Learn more

More information on payments and coverage

Payment is due after each session and will be charged with your card on file for any portion of patient responsibility. Receipts will be provided at the time of the charge. This typically takes place 2-4 weeks after the session, once your insurance has had a chance to process the claim. We try our best to verify eligibility, but it is ultimately your responsibility to check coverage and out-of-pocket costs for services. For out-of-network visits, you will be billed at the provider’s self-pay rate, and we can provide an invoice for you to submit to your insurance for potential out-of-network reimbursement based on your plan’s benefits.
