Therapist

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).

Therapist

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.
