I’m a dual-certified Family Nurse Practitioner (FNP-C) and Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP-BC) with more than 16 years of experience in healthcare and a deep passion for providing compassionate, individualized mental health care.
I believe everyone deserves to feel heard, respected, and supported. My approach is patient-centered and collaborative, with treatment plans tailored to your unique needs, goals, and circumstances.
Through Telehealth, I provide evaluation and treatment for a wide range of mental health concerns, including ADHD, Oppositional Defiant Disorder, Disruptive Mood Dysregulation Disorder, anger concerns, intermittent explosive disorder, depression, anxiety, bipolar disorder, binge-eating disorders, body dysmorphia, PTSD, unresolved trauma, family conflicts, personality disorders, schizophrenia, and substance use disorders. I proudly provide an LGBTQ+ affirming and inclusive space for all patients.
I also believe mental health care works best when providers work together. When appropriate, I collaborate with therapists, primary care providers, and other healthcare professionals to help create comprehensive, practical, and effective treatment plans.
My goal is simple: to meet you where you are and support you in getting to where you want to be. Your story matters, your goals matter, and you deserve care that meets you with compassion—not judgment.

Hello, I'm Annisha Dunaway. As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, I come to this work not only from training but from a lifetime of experience—as a veteran, military spouse, mother, daughter, and sister. I understand firsthand how challenging life can be—how deeply we all need support that is compassionate, judgment-free, and motivating. My goal is to create a space where you feel seen, heard, and empowered to keep moving forward. Your story matters here, and I’m here to walk alongside you—no judgment, just honest, supportive partnership.
I work with individuals, couples, and families of all ages. I have a Masters in Clinical Health Psychology and a Masters in Nutrition/Dietetics, which helps lend to a holistic approach to my work with clients. I commonly work with health behavioral change, anxiety, depression, eating disorders, ADHD, OCD, and relationship change. My treatment approach utilizes a biopsychosocial lense in long-term therapy based in psychodynamic, strengths-based, and integrative work in overall health. I utilize coping skills from CBT, DBT, ACT, and Mindfulness. I incorporated life-skills such a assertiveness, boundaries, and career.
I love the work that I do and the healing relationships I have been able to foster with my clients. I believe that therapy is a form of self-care and I want to be an advocate of that for my clients. I welcome anyone who thinks they may want some support, whether long-term or short-term to reach out to me and set up a brief phone consultation.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Family Therapist in Charlottesville
Searching for family therapists in Charlottesville starts with finding care that matches what your family is navigating. Family therapy can support parenting conflict, adolescent struggles, blended family dynamics, communication breakdowns, and relationship strain across generations. Family therapists are trained to work with the relational system, not just one person. As you compare therapists in Charlottesville, VA, look for bios that mention family systems, parent-child relationships, couples counseling, or marriage counseling if those areas match your needs.
In a smaller city like Charlottesville, the number of local in-person options may be more limited than in larger Virginia markets. Virtual therapy can expand your search while still letting you find a therapist Charlottesville families can work with through insurance. Family therapy may include the full family, smaller groups, couples, or individual family members, depending on the goals of care. Before booking, review each therapist’s profile for appointment availability, session structure, therapeutic approach, and whether a free phone consultation is offered.
Therapy in Charlottesville can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and make ongoing care easier to plan for. Headway helps you find Charlottesville counseling options by showing therapists who are accepting new patients and offer upfront cost estimates after you enter your coverage details. Nationally, Headway partners with a wide range of insurance plans, and you can check your specific coverage for Charlottesville when you search. You can browse profiles, compare fit, and book directly when you’re ready.
