Getting to know Nora Rowny

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW). I have been licensed in Virginia for 28 years, working at several different mental health settings. My experience ranges from family conflicts, trauma and abuse, grief, job stress, job loss, and mood disorders to emergency mental health interventions. I believe in treating everyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion. It takes courage to seek out a more fulfilling and happier life and to take the first steps towards a change. I am here to support and empower you in that journey My approach It takes determination to set aside time each week to sit and consider the possibilities in life, taken or refused. Life in these hectic days can feel rushed, disturbing, and unpleasant. I see the primary goal of therapy as the conscious taking of time to reflect and think about what has happened or is happening in our busy days. I desire to assist people in solving the puzzles of their lives and in lessening pain, achieving peace, or regaining excitement. I have over 30 years of experience working with crisis mental health, individual and couples counseling, and navigating difficult community systems with families and individuals. My primary method of therapy is Psychodynamic. This therapy focuses on the psychological roots and uses self-examination and the therapist/client relationship as a window. I also use attachment, trauma approaches, CBT, and DBT as adjunct therapies. I have significant experience in the issues related to childhood and adult trauma, family difficulties and separations, gender dysphoria, and LGBTQ issues. I enjoy working with people as they unroll the tangles of existence and discover new ways of perceiving the world and their place in it. The possibilities are endless, even in the face of extreme pain. I encourage you to start this journey in a place of empathy and safety.
