Regan is absolutely amazing. After some 40 years with therapy at different times under my belt, Regan is by far the best therapist I’ve encountered. She’s given me great tools, truly listens , validates my feelings. In 3 months, I’ve made more progress with my issues than I have on 40 years with other therapists.

If you are looking for better help, you have come to the best place. My holistic approach to therapy embraces a mental and emotional perspective to support your overall health and well being. I attended the University of Virginia and have an MSW from Virginia Commonwealth University. I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in Virginia with 15 years of professional work experience. I have worked in diverse settings including outpatient, intensive in-home, emergency settings, and schools, allowing me to provide individual and family counseling to adults and children. My versatile background helps identify many challenges to progress and overcome barriers.
My areas of experience include helping clients with stress and anxiety, relationship issues, family conflicts, parenting issues, and trauma and abuse. I believe that you are the expert of your story and that you have many strengths that will assist you in overcoming things that challenge you. It takes courage to seek out a more fulfilling and happier life and to take the first steps towards a change.

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.
Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.

My therapist really is upfront an very punctual
I can't say enough good things about Regan. I was intimidated to even reach out for help and apprehensive about opening up to what is essentially a stranger, however, it turns out that Regan made me feel confident in her expertise, confidentiality, and with the process. I never thought I would do something like this because I never ask for help. Better Help made it possible for me to access therapy which I need in order to live life to the best of my ability and to improve my own surroundings and relationships.
Ms. Harker was able to provide me with ways to assist me with my communication skills.

regan is amazing!! she has really helped me process a number of situations in my life, and given me coping skills for my depression and anxiety! she makes me feel heard and supported and i leave each session feeling positive.
I’ve only had two sessions with Ragan, but already feel a connection with her. She provides a safe space to speak freely about my issues and has a short term plan that I’m completely on board with.
I was nervous speaking to a therapist for the first time, however, Regan made me comfortable and provided me with information so I was understanding of the process. I’m looking forward to my continued sessions. Thank you so much!
Regan is indescribably phenomenal. From the first minute of our first session, she has created a warm, safe environment. She is encouraging without enabling, kind but not condescending, and consistently guides me through the work I’m doing- work that would not be possible without her. I can’t say enough great things about my experience with her.

Regan is fantastic. Thoughtful, insightful and honest.
She takes the time and gives me the chance to speak about my concerns and goals and what I need to work on about myself . She finds ways to help me cope with certain subjects & listens to me . She makes me laugh & she honestly makes me feel better by the time I leave the session . I couldn't ask for a better therapist. Thank you Mrs Harker.
