As a pilot program, we are currently in a phase of learning and growth. Please note:
We are committed to providing compassionate, empowering, and knowledgeable support while maintaining ethical and empathetic practices. This means that wait times to see a clinician may be longer than expected. Our pilot program serves individuals who meet the following criteria:
Current services are offered to those aged 18 or older who reside in the state of Virginia, have access to reliable internet and a device for telehealth sessions (if applicable), and can attend regularly scheduled sessions (typically weekly or bi-weekly).
H4TG Counseling provides trauma-informed collaborative services to those individuals experiencing mental health symptoms in response to a cancer diagnosis, including, but not limited to, trauma, grief, loss, mild to moderate depression, anxiety, stress management, relationship issues, and life transitions.
If you are experiencing mental health symptoms outside of our scope of practice, we encourage alternative support options and will provide referrals as available.
We accept the following insurance plans:
Please contact your insurance provider to verify your mental health benefits and any copay or deductible requirements. We can provide superbills for out-of-network reimbursement for other insurance plans.

Crisis Support:
H4TG Counseling is not an emergency service. If you are experiencing a mental health emergency, please dial 911 or go to the nearest emergency room.
H4TG Counseling provides mental health support to those impacted by a medical cancer-related trauma. Clients enter into the therapeutic process with the understanding that services received through H4TG Counseling aim to address those needs directly related to the areas listed above, and clients experiencing symptoms resulting from another mental health diagnosis or life experience are encouraged to seek alternative support options. We will submit claims for verified mental health services only for those insurance companies that the organization currently accepts. Clients are ultimately responsible for all H4TG Counseling associated costs.
Our team is ready to support you, and the best way to get in touch is by emailing support@hereforthegirls.org. While we do not offer crisis services, we are committed to providing a trauma-informed environment and can guide you toward appropriate support. If you are experiencing a mental health emergency or crisis: Call or text 988 to reach the Suicide & Crisis Lifeline; Call 911 if you or someone else is in immediate danger; Go to your nearest emergency room
For non-emergency support, consider these options: Contact your primary care provider for a referral to mental health services; Use SAMHSA's treatment locator at findtreatment.gov to find local providers; Call SAMHSA's National Helpline at 1-800-662-HELP (4357) for treatment referrals
