Sunnyside Counseling

Sunnyside Counseling Dee Keller, LPC. Virtual therapy that just clicks for girls and women across Virginia. Hi, so glad you're here!

I am Dee Keller, a Licensed Professional Counselor in Virginia and owner of Sunnyside Counseling. I provide online counseling across Virginia to anxious and overwhelmed kids, young adults, and moms seeking a space rooted in warmth and compassion so they can release the stress and get back to the life they want. I will help you or your kids build confidence and reconnect to your whole self without

worries or anxiety defining your path. I bring in wholehearted support, and relatable energy to help you explore the inner noise that has you stuck. Then together we work to release overthinking and the nagging voice that drags you down so you can feel confident in yourself and enjoy the life you're creating. Ready to release the tension and stop carrying the weight of it all? If you reside in Virginia and want to connect visit my website (www.sunnysidecville.com) to get started!

🌼 A note to you 🌼

If you're in the middle of a big shift right now... a new role, a relationship changing, kids growing up faster than you expected, or just feeling like the version of you from two years ago doesn't quite fit anymore... this is for you.

Transitions have a way of making us hyper-focused on what's next while quietly losing touch with what matters most: ourselves.

You don't have to have it all figured out. Make a moment to pause long enough to ask... what do I love? What still feels like me in the middle of all this change?

Those little anchors matter.

What's one thing you're holding onto right now that keeps you feeling like yourself? Drop it in the comments 👇

Even good change can bring up all the feels. I may be vacuuming away the butterflies. 🦋

New beginnings come with the excitement, the what-ifs, the "am I really doing this?"

Here's what I know to be true: the stretch zone is where the discomfort and the good stuff lives.

Little steps at a time.🌱

You may have caught Kindred Cville's news yesterday. Here's your sneak peek. 👀

This empty room is about to become a place where girls, women, and moms finally get to exhale. To untangle the hard stuff. To feel like themselves again.

It's going to be Sunnyside Counseling's new home.🥰

This June I'm moving in as part of the Kindred Mind Collective here in Charlottesville and I'd love to take you along for every bit of this process.

Virtual sessions are still going strong across Virginia and in-person spots are available now and filling up for June!

What do you want to see first as I get settled in? The before? The after? The chaos in between? Drop it in the comments. 👇🧡

Something sweet happened at story hour today.

We talked about hellos AND goodbyes 👋

Repetition, playfulness, and giving kids concrete examples help them build the confidence to handle transitions. Not just leaving a toy store (Shenanigans is awesone😅) but a goodbye everywhere.

Every little one went home with a goodbye rock today... something small and tangible to hold onto and carry into whatever hello comes next.

If you were there — it was so good to meet you. 💛

Therapy that's real...even when cameras roll.

We're reading *Goodbye, Friend! Hello, Friend!* This is a sweet, gentle book that helps little ones make sense of the bittersweet feelings that come with endings and new beginnings. (Honestly, perfect for the end of the school year.)

We'll do a read-aloud, a drawing activity, and a movement game, then I'll send caregivers home with some real tools for helping your kids navigate transitions.

All that, for free, on a Friday morning. 🌻

If you have been thinking about starting therapy but keep putting it off, I want you to know that is one of the most common things I hear.

It is not that people do not want support. Starting just feels like one more thing to figure out on top of everything else.

Here is what I want you to know about starting at Sunnyside:

There is no intake form that takes an hour.
No waitlist that stretches for months.
No pressure to commit before you are ready.

There is just a free 15-minute conversation where you can ask anything,share what brought you here, and decide whether it feels right.

That is the whole first step. One conversation!

Something nobody tells you about boundaries;
You do not have to be perfect to deserve one.
The inner critic is very good at finding reasons why you have not earned the right to protect your time, your energy, or your peace.

It will point to every mistake you have ever made as evidence that you should stay quiet and let it go.

That is not the truth. That is exhaustion talking. You are allowed to have limits. You are allowed to enforce them. Not when you have everything sorted out, not when you stop making mistakes. Right now, as you are

When emotions hit hard and fast, your thinking brain goes offline.
You cannot think your way out of a feeling that lives in your body.

That is where TIPP comes in.
This is a DBT skill I use with clients who experience intense emotional waves, anxiety spirals, and moments where everything feels like too much all at once.

You do not need to be in a crisis for this to help.
You just need to notice the wave coming
and reach for something that actually works.

Save this graphic.
Put it somewhere you will find it at 2am when your nervous system needs a reminder that you have options.

However, If you find yourself needing these tools more than you would like, that is worth talking about.
