About Barbara
Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Virginia with 30 years of experience. Barbara Bosoni focuses on stress, anxiety, relationships, family concerns, trauma and abuse, depression, LGBT issues, grief, intimacy-related concerns, parenting, bipolar disorder, and coping with life changes. She works with people who face abandonment, divorce, domestic violence, family-of-origin problems, guilt and shame, sexual assault, social anxiety, and workplace struggles.
Barbara describes her practice as grounded in long experience and ongoing learning from clients. She uses Client-Centered Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) to guide conversations and to help people identify what they want to change. Sessions are practical and focused on real-life situations rather than abstract theory.
She approaches change as work that takes persistence and hope. Barbara expects effort from the person in therapy and offers steady support as they try new ways of relating and coping. She pays attention to both similarities people share and the differences that matter in relationships.
Her background includes work across clinical and consultative settings and experience serving as an expert witness in local and state courts. That history informs how she evaluates relationship patterns, safety concerns, and problem areas that recur across a person’s life.
People who meet with Barbara can expect straightforward conversation about goals and next steps. She collaborates with clients to identify practical changes and to build skills for managing symptoms, repairing relationships, and navigating life disruptions.

How Barbara’s approaches shape remote work
Barbara uses Client-Centered Therapy to focus on each person’s perspective and goals. This approach emphasizes listening, reflecting, and helping clients clarify what matters most in relationships and daily life. It often helps with grief, relationship strain, and decisions about change.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is used to identify unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns and to build practical coping skills. CBT can be useful for anxiety, depression, social anxiety, workplace stress, and managing mood swings. Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) helps people examine emotional responses and patterns in close relationships to improve connection and reduce conflict.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Barbara will collaborate with clients to choose methods that fit their goals, needs, and preferences. She checks in about what is working and adjusts focus as sessions progress so the plan stays relevant.
Confirm current session options before booking, as formats are not specified here. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy schedule, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and avoid travel time. Practically, remote sessions can help people keep continuity of care during life changes and make regular appointments easier to maintain.
