Hi! I’m Brenda Nettey! I have a deep passion for walking alongside individuals on their healing journeys. I specialize in helping clients navigate anxiety, depression, trauma, religion/spirituality, grief, self-esteem, and life transitions.
Please feel free to call me Sam. I'm originally from North Carolina and received my bachelor's degree in social work at Appalachian State. In 2022, I moved to Southwest Virginia and received my master's degree in social work from Radford University. Overall, I have 13 years of experience as a Social Worker in different capacities, including grief and loss, chronic illness, and burnout. My passion is working with adults and older adults navigating life changes.
I believe good mental health care begins with feeling heard. I’m Dr. Sylvia May, a dual-certified Psychiatric Mental Health and Family Nurse Practitioner with a Doctor of Nursing Practice degree. I provide individualized and thoughtful care for adults navigating anxiety, depression, burnout, life transitions, stress, and women’s mental health concerns.
My approach is warm, collaborative, and focused on understanding the full picture of your health and your life. With experience in both psychiatric and primary care, I consider how emotional well-being, lifestyle, medications, relationships, and life circumstances may intersect.
Together, we will develop a plan that feels realistic for your life and reflects your concerns, priorities, and goals - not simply your diagnosis.
Hi, I’m Lois Ntiamoah, PMHNP-BC, a Board-Certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner dedicated to providing compassionate, personalized mental health care.
I specialize in working with adults experiencing anxiety, depression, ADHD, bipolar disorder, PTSD, insomnia, personality disorders, and dementia-related behavioral concerns. My approach is warm, supportive, and collaborative, and I believe in treating the whole person, not just the symptoms. I strive to create a safe and welcoming space where clients feel heard, respected, and empowered as we work together toward lasting emotional wellness.
I have practice as a Licensed Professional Counselor since 2012 and I also hold the license for Licensed Substance Abuse Treatment Practitioner.
For more than twenty years, I have had the privilege of walking alongside adolescents, adults, and couples during some of the most difficult and meaningful seasons of their lives. I believe that sometimes it can be difficult to see beyond the darkness in front of us. My role is to listen without judgement while helping you find your way toward the light again.
I have been practicing as a Licensed Clinical Social Worker for over 20 years. I have worked with children, adolescents and adults. I have experience working with individuals who have experienced trauma and I am trained in EMDR. I work with individuals who are struggling with anxiety as well as relationship challenges.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in Roanoke
Searching for therapists in Roanoke starts with finding someone whose experience matches what you want support for. Roanoke therapists may focus on concerns like anxiety, depression, grief, relationship challenges, trauma, or major life changes. As you compare options, look for a therapist whose listed specialties, therapy style, and background align with your needs. Provider bios can help you see whether a therapist uses approaches like cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, or trauma-informed care.
In a smaller city like Roanoke, local appointment options may vary by specialty, schedule, and office location. Virtual therapy can expand your search while still connecting you with a therapist licensed in Virginia. When narrowing your options, consider whether you prefer in-person care, virtual sessions, evening availability, or a free phone consultation before booking. Reading therapist profiles can also show how each person describes their communication style, session structure, and experience with concerns similar to yours.
Therapy in Roanoke can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and understand your expected out-of-pocket expense before care begins. Headway helps you find therapists who accept a wide range of insurance plans, are accepting new patients, and list their availability. You can compare profiles, check estimated costs, and book directly when you’re ready.
