ADHD affects concentration, impulse control, and time management—challenges many Virginia Beach residents face. Headway's network includes providers specializing in practical strategies, habit tracking, and cognitive restructuring to address hyperactivity, inattention, and forgetfulness. With flexible scheduling and sessions starting as soon as tomorrow, finding the right fit has never been easier.
I apply a holistic and person-centered approach to therapy. I recognize that by creating a safe, supportive, and collaborative therapeutic environment, clients can learn to redefine dysfunctional boundaries, to reconnect with a sense of meaning for their lives, and to ultimately make lasting changes in their lives and relationships. I have experience working with children, adolescents, adults, couples, and families in navigating life transitions, grief, depression, anxiety, gender identity, sexual identity, trauma, OCD, narcissistic abuse, adult children of emotionally immature parents, and relationship strain.
I have over 40 years of experience in mental health practice. I believe that we work together to help you be the best version of yourself. I am trauma therapy certified, anger management certified and work with teens and adults. I specialize in anxiety, depression and trauma issues as well as Adult Children of Alcoholics. We are a team working together to help you improve your life situations
I am a native to the Hampton Roads area specializing in children, teens and families. One of the most important aspects of therapy is the ability to truly listen and connect with clients. I offer a range of therapeutic options that will allow a deeper sense of self and connection with others.
I received my bachelor's from James Madison University and a Master of Arts from Lesley University in Expressive Therapy.
I believe that we are all a work in progress, including myself. I want therapy to feel safe, productive and supportive.
Hi, I’m Marlane.
Taking the first step toward therapy can feel overwhelming, but you don’t have to face life’s challenges alone. I provide a safe, supportive space for individuals and families navigating stress, trauma, emotional challenges, and substance use concerns.
With over five years of experience supporting clients in crisis, I use a collaborative approach tailored to your unique needs. Through evidence-based approaches such as CBT and trauma-focused CBT, we will work together to build coping skills, improve emotional wellness, strengthen communication, and create meaningful change.
My goal is to help you feel empowered, resilient, and confident as you move forward.
I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with 15 years of experience in mental health and substance use services, and have a postgraduate Certificate in Psychedelic-Assisted Therapy. I work with adults, with a particular passion for supporting women, LGBTQIA+, and BIPOC individuals, as well as those navigating post-psychedelic integration.
Our therapeutic partnership begins with the understanding that you are a whole person — not a diagnosis, a symptom, or a set of circumstances. Together, we will explore how the intersections of identity, lived experience, trauma, mental health, and substance use shape your inner world and outer life across biological, psychological, social, and spiritual dimensions.


Headway helps you stay on track with expert-guided support for ADHD — from finding the right therapist or psychiatrist, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.
Finding ADHD therapists in Virginia Beach starts with knowing what kind of care you want. Therapy can support executive function skills, cognitive behavioral therapy for ADHD, emotional regulation, and routines for focus and time management. Medication management is a separate service usually provided by a psychiatrist or psychiatric nurse practitioner. Some people look for therapy, some look for medication support, and some use both. If you’re searching for adult ADHD care, ADHD testing in Virginia Beach, or support for a child or teen, review each therapist’s listed specialties and experience before you book.
Virginia Beach has a steady mix of local and virtual therapy options, which can help you compare fit across schedule, location, and care style. If you prefer in-person care, consider office location and commute time. If your schedule changes often, virtual appointments may give you more available times to choose from. ADHD can also appear alongside anxiety, depression, school stress, work stress, or relationship strain, so it helps to look for a therapist with experience in the concerns you want to address. Provider bios can show how a therapist structures sessions, which approaches they use, and whether they offer a free phone consultation.
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. Headway helps you search for ADHD therapists who are accepting new patients, compare virtual and in-person availability, and enter your insurance details to see estimated costs before booking. You can browse therapist profiles, review specialties and approaches, and book directly when you’re ready.
If you're already taking psychiatric medication and considering switching providers, talk to your current prescriber before changing or stopping any medication — most psychiatric medications shouldn't be stopped abruptly. Anyone experiencing thoughts of self-harm or in acute crisis should call 988 or go to the nearest emergency department rather than wait for an outpatient appointment.
