Renee Perrier

Therapist

Virtual • Virginia


With 26 years of clinical experience as a licensed therapist in DC and Virginia, I support individuals navigating life’s complexities—from stress, trauma, and grief to fertility concerns, family dynamics, LGBTQIA+ experiences, anxiety, depression, and moments of transition.

As a proud Howard University graduate, my work is grounded in cultural humility, social justice, and a belief that mental health is inseparable from history, community, and lived experience. Howard taught me to see clients not just through symptoms, but as whole people shaped by family, identity, policy, and perseverance.

This perspective fuels my commitment to therapy as both a healing space and a form of liberation. My practice is anchored in integrity, guided by compassion, and centered on the dignity and humanity of every person I serve.

Crystal Brooks

Crystal Brooks

Therapist

Virtual • Virginia


I work with adults who are ready to engage deeply in their healing and personal evolution. Many of my clients have spent much of their lives in caregiving roles: parents, adult children caring for aging family members, partners, healthcare professionals, teachers, therapists, or those who naturally take on the role of “the strong one.” While meaningful, these roles can also lead to overwhelm, burnout, and a pattern of overfunctioning that leaves little room for your own needs.

You may have already experienced therapy and are now seeking something more integrative; an approach that moves beyond coping into clarity, embodiment, and empowerment. Often, my clients come in recognizing that they’ve been conditioned to prioritize others, and are ready to explore the patterns, beliefs, and internal narratives that have shaped that way of being.

In our work together, you are met with compassion as we uncover these patterns and begin the process of reconnecting you with your own needs, values, and inner authority. This is not about becoming someone new, but about returning to yourself.

I provide psychotherapy using a personalized, trauma-informed approach that integrates somatic practices, nervous system regulation, shadow work, ecotherapy, transpersonal hypnotherapy, guided meditation, breathwork, reflective writing, and ritual-based practices.

This is a space where your growth, healing, and wholeness are honored...a journey of uncovery, discovery, and love.

My home base is North Carolina. I serve clients in NC, NJ, VA, FL and CA.

Happy patient looking away

Find the right therapist for you

Headway makes it easy to find support for your mental health — from finding the right provider, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in Virginia

Finding the right therapist in Virginia starts with getting clear on what you need. Whether you're looking for help with anxiety, depression, relationship concerns, or another challenge, choosing a licensed provider who specializes in your area of concern can make a meaningful difference. Virginia-licensed therapists include LPCs, LCSWs, psychologists, and psychiatrists, each with different training and approaches.

With providers spread across Northern Virginia, Richmond, Hampton Roads, and beyond, practical factors matter too. Think about whether you prefer in-person sessions close to home or the flexibility of virtual appointments. Many therapists in Virginia offer both. Reading a provider's bio before booking can help you understand their style, background, and areas of focus so you feel more confident going in.

Therapy in Virginia can be expensive out of pocket, but using your in-network insurance benefits is one of the most reliable ways to lower costs. On Headway, you can enter your insurance information to see an estimated session cost before you book. Nationally, Headway partners with over 100 insurance plans, and your out-of-pocket cost may be as low as $0 per session depending on your specific plan and location.
