“I thought the first appointment went very well. She made me feel comfortable and let me talk, even when I would ramble or get off topic. She never cut me off and interjected. Wonderful bedside manner and I will be seeing her again!”

“I think Dr. Palmore does an amazing job at listening and providing reference for her guidance. Therapy obviously is a personal journey whether you want to heal, grow or just express but when you have the right therapist you have no choice but to evolve. My sessions with Dr. Palmore have been surprisingly intimate and truly authentic. I know everyone does not initially have that experience but I would respond to say they just didn't have a therapist like her.”

I am a Virginia-based Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) with 7 years of experience. I earned my Master's degree from Troy State University in Alabama.

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.

I love her she’s the best!
Our first session was very smooth and easy. All of the butterflies in my stomach was set at ease after a few minutes of talking, and for that I'm grateful.
