Hi, I’m Brittany Davis, a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) and Licensed Substance Abuse Treatment Practitioner (LSATP) in Virginia.

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).
As a Licensed Professional Counselor, I believe in prioritizing our mental health. My goal is make therapy feel approachable, empowering, and warm. I will meet you where you are on your life journey and collaborate with you on meeting your goals.

Factors to Consider When Choosing an Anxiety Therapist in Virginia
Searching for therapists in Virginia starts with finding the right clinical fit for your needs. Virginia has a wide mix of therapists across urban, suburban, and rural areas, so available options can vary by location. You may want support for anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, grief, trauma, or life transitions. As you compare Virginia therapists, look for training, listed specialties, and therapy approaches that match what you want to focus on. A therapist’s bio can help you understand their style, experience, and what sessions may look like.
Practical fit matters, too. Whether you are looking for therapy in Virginia Beach, Richmond, Northern Virginia, or a smaller community, consider whether in-person or virtual care works better for your schedule. Some people prefer meeting in an office, while others prefer the flexibility of virtual sessions from home. You can also narrow your search by appointment availability, whether a therapist offers a free phone consultation, and whether they are accepting new patients. Reading profiles before booking can help you compare communication style, specialties, and scheduling options in one place.
The cost of mental health care in Virginia varies, and using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs. Headway helps you find therapists who take your insurance, see estimated out-of-pocket costs before you book, and choose from appointments that fit your schedule. Nationally, Headway works with over 100 insurance plans. You can browse therapists in Virginia, review bios, check availability, and book directly when you are ready.
