About
Hey! My name is Garika and I'm a licensed professional therapist out of Virginia. I spent the first 7 years post-grad working in a residential facility with adolescents, and coming up on my 2nd year proving care through telehealth therapy to people from many walks of life. Over the years, I have worked with various diagnoses including depression, anxiety, ADHD, severe trauma, PTSD, dual diagnosis, and personality disorders; along with areas like family issues and grief/loss. When not working, I am spending time with my wife, son, 2 step-sons, and dog. I enjoy traveling, gardening, and trying new things.
