Indinesya Zhao, LPC, Owner
Empower Your Life with Positive Moods Therapy in Richmond VA.
Indinesya helps women heal from trauma and find clarity and confidence.
Change isn’t easy (even when it’s “good”).
I want you to know that change doesn’t have to be overwhelming or lonely. Together, we’ll take intentional steps toward the life you want—one rooted in clarity, confidence, and self-compassion. Growth isn’t about perfection; it’s about progress. And you don’t have to do it alone
You're here because something in you knows it’s time for a change—and you’re ready to stop carrying it all on your own.
You’re here because you’re tired. Tired of juggling it all, constantly putting others’ needs before your own, and feeling like you’re never truly seen. The weight of trying to meet everyone’s expectations, while ignoring your own, is draining and leaves you feeling defeated. It’s exhausting to keep up the facade of perfection while your inner world feels like it’s falling apart.
But deep down, you know there’s more for you. You deserve to live a life that feels authentic, fulfilling, and aligned with your true self. Together, we’ll uncover the patterns that have been keeping you stuck and create a path forward that’s grounded in self-compassion, healthy boundaries, and lasting change.
How I work:
At the core of our approach to therapy we believe that meaningful change happens when you feel seen, safe, and supported—so you can heal, grow, and show up fully in your life.
We specialize in helping high-achieving women break free from people-pleasing, set healthy boundaries, and reconnect with their authentic selves. Through trauma-informed therapy, inner child healing, and mindset work, we’ll uncover the patterns holding you back so you can reclaim your voice and create a life that truly aligns with who you are
