Rose-Berline Devallon

Psychiatric Mental Health NP

Virtual • Virginia


Welcome! I'm a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP-BC) dedicated to helping individuals find healing through a well-rounded approach to mental wellness. True healing comes from caring for the whole person: mind, body, and spirit. My goal is to create a safe, compassionate, and judgment-free space where you can be listened to, valued, and empowered to take an active role in your mental health journey. I have years of experience caring for individuals with depression, anxiety, bipolar disorder, trauma, psychosis, substance use disorders, and other complex mental health conditions. Mental health is more than managing symptoms. Mental well-being is closely connected to physical health, relationships, purpose, and daily habits. Together, we will explore how these areas influence your overall wellness and develop a treatment plan that supports lasting growth. This may include medication management when appropriate, education, supportive therapy, healthy lifestyle strategies, stress management, sleep optimization, and building practical coping skills that fit your life.

Dr. Joy Mwendwa

Therapist

Virtual & in-person • Centreville, VA


I believe counseling should be a place where you feel seen, heard, and supported. Many of the clients I work with are navigating important life transitions—work, school, marriage, family relationships, cultural identity, leadership stress, faith questions, or the pressures of professional life. I especially enjoy working with individuals, couples, and families from diverse backgrounds, including professional women, TCK, MKs, PKs, Ministry families, African and Black and brown families, diaspora families, international professionals, and people who desire to integrate their faith into the counseling process.

My goal is to create a space that is both compassionate and practical. I want clients to feel safe bringing their whole story into the room—faith, culture, family dynamics, and personal struggles—while also leaving sessions with tools that help them grow and move forward. Whether we are working through relationship challenges, stress, anxiety, or life direction, I approach therapy as a partnership where we work together toward healing and clarity.

Happy patient looking away

Find an expert who truly understands maternal mental health

Headway helps you find expert-guided support for every stage of motherhood — from finding the right therapist or psychiatrist, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Postpartum Therapist in Richmond

Finding postpartum therapists in Richmond starts with knowing what kind of support you want. Postpartum care can address more than postpartum depression, including postpartum anxiety, birth-related stress, identity shifts, and relationship strain. As you compare therapists, look for listed experience with maternal mental health, perinatal care, postpartum counseling, or work as a therapist for moms. A perinatal mental health certification, often listed as PMH-C, can also signal specialized training.

Richmond offers both local and virtual options, which can help you find care that fits your schedule, location, and preferences. For many new parents, virtual therapy can make appointments easier to attend while managing infant care, physical recovery, and changing routines. As you narrow your search, consider appointment availability, whether a therapist is accepting new patients, and whether a free phone consultation is offered. Reading therapist bios can help you see how each person describes their approach, specialties, and communication style before you book.

Postpartum counseling in Richmond can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to lower session costs and understand what you may pay before care begins. Headway helps you find Richmond therapists who focus on postpartum concerns and offer upfront cost estimates after your coverage is verified. You can enter your insurance details on Headway to confirm what coverage is available for your specific plan and area. You can browse therapists, review bios, and book directly when you’re ready.
