As a therapist with over 20 years of experience working with children, adolescents, families, and
individuals, I use a trauma-informed, client-centered approach.
I’m a licensed clinical social worker providing telehealth therapy for children, teens, and adults across North Carolina, Virginia, South Carolina, and Florida. My goal is to offer a warm, supportive space where you can feel comfortable being yourself, talking openly, and working toward meaningful change.
I am Dr. Alishea Rowley, a psychotherapist specializing in working with individuals and families for over 20 years. I practice as a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) in the state of Florida and Virginia. I have worked with clients with a wide range of concerns including depression, stress and anxiety, relationship issues, parenting problems, adjustment issues, OCD, and and a wide range of other clinical diagnosis.
As your therapist, I create a space where you can slow down and reconnect with yourself. My style is warm, collaborative, and grounded in belief that meaningful change begins within. Whether you’re managing anxiety, relationship challenges, identity shifts, or past experiences that still affect you, we move at your pace with practical tools and honest conversation.
I have been working in the mental health field for four years and have experience supporting clients ages 5–60.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Family Therapist in Virginia Beach
Searching for family therapists in Virginia Beach starts with finding someone who understands the concerns your family wants to address. Family therapy can support families navigating parenting conflict, adolescent struggles, blended family dynamics, communication patterns, and stress across generations. Family therapists are trained to work with the relational system, not just one person, so review each therapist’s listed specialties, training, and approach to see whether their experience matches your needs.
In Virginia Beach, your options may include therapists with offices near home, school, or work, as well as therapists who offer virtual appointments across Virginia. For family counseling, it also helps to ask how sessions are structured. Some appointments may include the full family, while others may focus on parents, siblings, couples, or individual family members. Before booking, read therapist bios for details on availability, session format, communication style, and whether a free phone consultation is offered.
Therapy in Virginia Beach can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and understand what you may pay before care begins. Headway helps you search family therapists in Virginia Beach who are accepting new patients, review detailed bios, check estimated out-of-pocket costs, and book directly when you’re ready.
If anyone in your family is experiencing or worried about abuse, threats, or coercion, joint family or couples therapy usually isn't the right starting point — individual support is safer. The Childhelp National Child Abuse Hotline (1-800-422-4453) and National Domestic Violence Hotline (1-800-799-7233, or text START to 88788\) can help you think through next steps.
