Starting therapy can feel vulnerable, especially if you’re used to being the one who holds things together for everyone else. I work with teens and adults who may look capable on the outside but feel overwhelmed, anxious, stuck, or disconnected on the inside. Many of my clients are insightful and thoughtful people who want more than quick coping strategies — they want to understand themselves more deeply and experience real, lasting change.
Sometimes just getting through the day can feel like a full-time job. Finding a mental health provider who truly understands you may seem out of reach, but it’s absolutely possible. Before anything else, I’m human. I’m also a woman, born overseas and shaped by the diversity of a Southern metropolitan city. I’ve had the privilege of working with people from all walks of life and am passionate about partnering with patients as they move toward greater health, balance, and fulfillment. You don't have to navigate it all alone. You can exhale- we’ll take it from here, together.
As a licensed clinical social worker, I know life can feel overwhelming at times, and asking for help isn’t always easy. My goal is to create a welcoming space where you can share openly without fear of judgment. I believe in walking alongside you with compassion, encouragement, and practical tools for growth.
Hello! My name is Chelsea Vicario. I received a Bachelor's degree in Psychology and a Masters degree in Counseling from Radford University. The meaning of healing and growth looks different for everyone. I am here to help guide you to being your best self and to help you figure out what your healing and growth journey will look like. I have a passion for helping people reach their full potential.
I have experience working with people with dual diagnosis. I am a CSAC. I also have experience in private practice working with individuals and couples struggling with anxiety, depression, bipolar, self-esteem issues and relationships concerns. I am a strong ally for the LGBTQ+ community and truly enjoy working with this population. I truly believe that healthy boundaries, healthy coping skills and a positive mindset can change a person’s life for the better.
I use a mix of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Person Centered Therapy and a solution focused approach to help you reach your specific goals and start your path to healing. I know it can be difficult to start therapy, but I will provide an environment to help you feel comfortable as you start the therapeutic process.
Hi, I’m Brittany Davis, a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) and Licensed Substance Abuse Treatment Practitioner (LSATP) in Virginia. I’m passionate about helping adults feel more grounded, confident, and connected—especially when life has been shaped by trauma, chronic stress, anxiety, depression, or painful patterns that keep repeating. I also support clients navigating recovery from substance use, relationship and family stress, burnout, and major life transitions.
My background includes community and outpatient settings as well as private practice, and I bring a trauma-informed, whole-person approach that considers mind, body, and spirit (when that fits your values).

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Mental Health Therapist in Norfolk, VA
Searching for therapists in Norfolk starts with knowing what kind of support fits your needs. You may want help with anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, grief, trauma, work stress, or a life transition. As you compare therapists, look for training and specialties that match what you want to address. A therapist’s profile can also show their approach, such as cognitive behavioral therapy, eye movement desensitization and reprocessing, dialectical behavior therapy, or trauma-informed care.
Norfolk has a range of therapy options, from local offices near neighborhoods like Ghent, Freemason, and Larchmont to virtual appointments across Virginia. If your schedule changes often, virtual therapy may make it easier to find appointment times that fit. If you prefer meeting in person, location, commute time, and office availability may matter more. Before booking, review each therapist’s bio for details on communication style, session structure, availability, and whether they offer a free phone consultation.
Therapy in Norfolk can be a significant expense without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs. Headway helps you search for therapists who are accepting new patients, add your insurance details, and see an estimated out-of-pocket cost before you book. You can compare therapists, review profiles, and book directly when you’re ready.
