Services
Sequoia Psychotherapy offers family therapy in person in Virginia Beach and online. Sessions give your family a safe place to slow down, talk, and work through what feels hard.
“Meaningful change begins with understanding the experiences, relationships, and influences that shape our lives.”
Every family hits rough patches. Maybe the same argument keeps coming back. Maybe everyone’s under one roof, but nobody’s really talking.
Family therapy gives you a calm place to sort it out. Your therapist helps everyone speak and listen, even when emotions run high. Over time, many families find they argue less and understand each other more.
Sessions can include parents, kids, siblings, or other people who matter to your family. You don’t need to have it all figured out before you start.

Why Choose Us
Every family has different needs, so we tailor the service to suit you. We start by listening to your story. Then we shape sessions around what your family needs most.
Our goal is simple. We want your home to feel more connected, and we want you to leave sessions with tools you can actually use.
You won’t be judged here. Your therapist will get to know each person in the room, from the talkative teen to the quiet parent. Because of that, everyone gets a chance to be heard.
We also move at your family’s pace. Some families want quick, practical steps. Others need more time to build trust first. Both are fine.
Your family will work with a licensed therapist. They’ve helped families work through conflict, life changes, parenting struggles, and more.
In practice, that means you get steady guidance. Your therapist can keep talks on track when they get heated. They can also help you spot patterns that are hard to see from the inside.
If you live in or near Virginia Beach, you can meet in person. Prefer to stay home? Online sessions are available too.
Talking about family stuff isn’t easy. That’s why we work hard to keep sessions respectful and private. Everyone gets space to share, and no one gets pushed to say more than they’re ready to.
Ground rules are simple. We listen, we take turns, and we treat each other with care. Your therapist will guide the conversation, so you don’t have to carry it alone.
Insurance Coverage
Your therapist will ask about what brought you in and what you hope will change. Nobody has to share everything right away. The first visit is mostly about getting comfortable and setting goals together.
That depends on your situation. Often it’s parents and children, but siblings or other close family members can join too. Your therapist can help you decide who should attend.
Yes. Online sessions work well for many families, especially with busy schedules. In-person visits are available as well.
That’s pretty common. You can still start with the ready people. Sometimes others join later once they see it’s a safe space.
It varies. Some families see progress in a few weeks, while others need longer. Your therapist will check in with you often and adjust the plan as you go.
Many families report better communication and less conflict. Results depend on many things, including how involved everyone is. Your therapist can talk about what to expect for your family.
You don’t have to wait until things feel unbearable. Reaching out now can make a real difference.
