Welcome!
As a Spanish and English speaking Licensed Clinical Social Worker, I believe mental health is a key ingredient in navigating life transitions and regaining stability. Seeking support on your journey is hard, so congratulations on doing what is hard. I’ve been practicing for 20 years, working with clients aged 13-25 navigating anxiety, depression, emotional regulation, and life transitions.
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).
Grace Lamour (she/her) is a trauma-informed, culturally competent therapist passionate about helping clients gain insight, resilience, and self-awareness. As a child of immigrants, Grace deeply understands how identity, cultural expectations, and oppression influence mental health.
She supports clients with anxiety, generational trauma, and self-worth through CBT, psychodynamic, and person-centered techniques. Grace creates a collaborative, accessible space for individuals and families—especially BIPOC and first-gen clients—to process, heal, and thrive.
Dr. Troy A. Waller, a Licensed Professional Counselor with more than two decades of experience, provides services across Washington, D.C., Maryland, and Virginia. He focuses on trauma recovery and offers consultation to government agencies and hospital regarding stress, anxiety, and mental health concerns.
I'm a dual board-certified Family and Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner providing compassionate, evidence-based care tailored to your unique needs. For the past 8 years, I’ve worked closely with individuals managing chronic pain and substance use disorders, providing integrated support that addresses both physical and mental health needs. I specialize in diagnosing and treating a wide range of psychiatric conditions including anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder, ADHD, and PTSD with a focus on individuals over 18 years old.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Mental Health Therapist in Sterling
Searching for therapists in Sterling starts with knowing what kind of support you want. People often look for therapy for anxiety, depression, grief, relationship challenges, work stress, or major life changes. As you compare options, look for a therapist whose listed specialties, training, and approach match what you want to discuss. Provider bios can help you see whether a therapist uses approaches like cognitive behavioral therapy, trauma-informed care, or acceptance and commitment therapy.
In Sterling, local therapy options may be more limited than in larger nearby areas, so virtual appointments can help expand your search across Virginia. You may want a counseling office near you, a therapist with evening availability, or someone who offers a free phone consultation before the first session. Before booking, review each therapist’s profile for details about availability, session format, communication style, and whether they are accepting new patients.
Therapy in Sterling can be a significant expense without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce your session costs. Headway helps you search for therapists who accept a wide range of insurance plans, see estimated out-of-pocket costs before booking, and choose between in-person and virtual care. You can browse therapists in Sterling, review bios, and book directly when you’re ready.
