SERVICES OF VIRGINIA
Serenity Counseling Services of Virginia (SCSVA) was launched in 2017 by Monica Lucas and Nadya Senia. These ladies have been working in the mental health industry for a combined 40+ years and bring invaluable insights and experience to the table. Their passion for helping others and making each person feel valued and dignified has led to a level of compassion in the mental health industry that is unmatched. SCSVA offers Mental Health Skill Building, Residential Crisis Stabilization, and Intensive In Home Services, which are licensed under the Department of Behavioral Health and Developmental Services (DBHDS). These services are provided by Qualified Mental Health Professionals (QMHPs), Licensed Mental Health Professionals (LMHPs), Supervisees in Social Work, and Residents in Counseling.
In addition to the direct services that SCSVA offers, we are committed to educating the community about mental health through our various outreach programs.
