Dr Peter Sorman, VA Psychologist 0810004883

Dr Peter Sorman helps people facing stress, anxiety, trauma, depression, and struggles with focus and self-esteem. He has nearly three decades of practice and offers steady, practical support for those coping with panic, post-traumatic stress, ADHD, and issues that affect day-to-day functioning.

He listens for each person's strengths and builds on them. Sessions aim to clarify what is most important to the client and break problems into manageable steps. He encourages small, realistic goals that lead to clearer thinking and better routine functioning.

His background includes 30 years of professional work and a Virginia credential as a VA Psychologist. He draws on what has worked for people in similar situations and adjusts approaches to fit the individual’s needs rather than following a one-size-fits-all script.

People often come with chronic pain, life changes after injury, separation or divorce, first responder stress, veteran and armed forces issues, or trouble finding purpose. He talks with clients about practical ways to cope, improving concentration and memory, and rebuilding confidence after hard experiences.

Starting therapy is framed as a collaborative process. Dr Sorman respects that clients know their own story and helps them use their strengths to meet goals. He encourages prospective clients to take the next step when they feel ready and offers guidance on how to begin.

How evidence-based techniques translate to online care

Dr Sorman uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on practical skills and behavior change. One approach emphasizes structured work on attention, memory, and daily routines to help people with concentration and ADHD-related struggles. Another approach concentrates on trauma-informed strategies that support processing difficult memories, reducing panic reactions, and rebuilding confidence after painful experiences.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. He works with each person to identify goals, try methods, and adjust the plan based on what actually helps. The therapist and client review progress together and change direction when needed to find the best fit.

Many people find online therapy helpful because it can fit into busy schedules and reduce travel time. It also makes it easier to have regular check-ins during work breaks or when managing chronic health needs. Confirm the available session options before booking so arrangements match what the client needs.
