I started providing mental health services in the community in 2016 as a behavior technician. Once graduated I became a psychotherapy resident and later completed full psychotherapist licensure requirements with a specialty in marriage and family therapy. My therapeutic style is psychodynamic/psychoeducational, which means I help individuals understand the psychological underlying motivations for their behaviors impacting their mood shifts and precipitating symptoms and/or relational distress and impacts on our day to day activities. Relational distress is not confined to couples. Relational distress (mostly precipitated by depression and anxiety and as the cause of depression/anxiety in a never ending loop) includes connections in all existing contexts. Day to day actives impacted by mood shifts and symptoms of depression and anxiety can range from our daily personal hygiene routines to balancing (or rather neglecting to) a check book, to job performance, to dysregulation showing up in additive day to day behaviors (alcohol and drugs are not the only addition behaviors presenting as dysregulation). In my practice, I believe that therapy is a collaborative journey where the client and therapist work together. My work is grounded in mutual respect, empathy, unconditional regard, and trust. My goal is to provide a supportive and non-judgmental place where the individual can explore thoughts, feelings and stances impacting their interpersonal, intrapersonal, and day to day experiences with honesty and openness. To me, growth and change are deeply personal experiences and unique to each individual. A transformative process that unfolds carefully and mindfully over time. My role is to provide guidance and tools towards the path of healing and self discovery of insights and resilience as the individual, couple, or the family reach their desired goals.

One of the wonderful aspects of therapy is that it's a journey for all stages of life — not just during moments of turmoil, but also in times of joy and stability. My mission is and will always be to empower individuals to embrace self-compassion and grace, fostering a deeper understanding of themselves. My approach to therapy focuses on addressing present challenges through practical solutions that enhance your well-being and alleviate stress. I prioritize accountability and offer the insights you need, rather than just what you might want to hear. I recognize that no textbook or degree can rival first-hand experience. Bearing in mind that I may not entirely grasp my client's personal experiences, I excel at offering a professional yet personable perspective, maintaining an open mind, and always remembering that my clients are the true experts on their own lives. I acknowledge that I may be the sole confidant of your struggles or hardships, and it's very important to me that you feel free to be your authentic self during our time together. Whatever it may be that you are going through, be encouraged to know that you certainly are not alone. I am here and I am here to help.

Empowering Others to Live Happier Lives. I am Jennifer Evans, LPC, LMHC. I am a board-certified therapist in multiple states and over 20 years of counseling experience, with a proven success of reaching remission in Depression with my clients in one session; this is within the 95th percentile of clinicians measured. I am passionate about effecting change and helping work with people to achieve insight in order to gain maximum potential and reach their most desired visions and goals. I know personally and professionally, how difficult it is to get here and I am proud of your first step and commitment to change. I know I can be of valued support as we work together to reach success, insight, and overcome emotional and psychosocial stressors. A little more about me; I was born and raised in Florida. I did my undergraduate at Florida State University, and moved to Virginia to attend Eastern Virginia Medical School, where I studied clinical counseling and received my Master’s in Art Therapy. As a military spouse, we relocated many times, having to redevelop my career each duty station, which gave me a myriad of experiences with various populations. This has lead me to focus on occupational counseling and the effects of stress on our mental health. My passion for treatment is trauma and life experiences that lead us to feel fearful, unsafe, and saddened; sometimes with no explanation as to why we feel the way we do. I work with my client’s in a person-centered format with cognitive-behavioral underpinnings and psychoeducation to not only work through and build a better understanding of ourselves but the experiences and beliefs that built us and ways to endure and build resiliency to better manager those feelings so they are not as overwhelming in the future.

Hi there! Let's sit and chat... Are you looking for a safe space to explore and organize your thoughts and feelings? Many people see therapy as a one-sided conversation, with little opportunity for interaction or getting to experience one another as real people. I can assure you our sessions will be as real as it gets! I want to help you achieve whatever solutions and life changes you are looking for. We'll work on building trust and a sense of safety, using open communication and humor, to identify how we can improve on your already existing coping skills, supports, and knowledge. Although this process may be challenging, we will work to enjoy the process as much as possible, so you can experience yourself, your relationships, and your life in new ways. Simply put, I don't think therapy has to be a painful thing for you. Starting this step can be hard and I would love the opportunity to work with you on this journey. For Private Pay Clients: Individual Sessions: $190/hour Couple/Family Sessions: $230/hour **All couples and families are seen via private pay. This allows us to focus on the relationships in the room, rather than the diagnosis of an individual. **For those out of network, should you meet criteria for a diagnosis accepted by insurance companies, I can provide monthly superbills that you may submit to your insurance provider for potential reimbursement. Please note that the payments received by the insurance provider as reimbursement may not cover the full service fee and I cannot guarantee reimbursement.

Hello! I am an Army veteran, military spouse, and clinical social worker. My background experience as a mental health clinician to active duty military and their families, psychiatric hospitals, forensic social work and victim advocate. During my sessions my goal is to create the space to safely process, without judgement, and nurture the courage to be imperfect. I believe that challenges and changes occur to give individuals opportunities to examine their lives and draw from their inner strength the ability to redirect their life’s path. Obstacles are only opportunities for your future.

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, Certified Clinical Trauma Professional, Certified Alcohol and Drug Counselor, and PhD Candidate with clinical expertise in treating anxiety, depression, addiction, PTSD, trauma, bi-polar disorder, and chronic medical conditions exacerbated by mental health. I provide an interactive therapeutic style for individuals, couples, and families. To do this, I integrate various methodologies and techniques to offer a personalized client centered approach while utilizing cognitive behavioral therapy, spirituality, motivational interviewing, and solution focused strategies inclusive of compassion and understanding. It is my belief that all people are born precious and free. Along the way, life presents challenges that could cause an individual to feel unfulfilled, empty, unseen, unheard, and misunderstood. Together, you and I will discover the root cause of the pain and implement a plan for healing. I am here to help you examine and explore issues that make you feel stuck. I understand that each person is the driver of their own life and has within them the strength to overcome obstacles. I encourage introspection and observation of behavior, rather than make judgement or engage in negative self- criticism. I believe therapy can be life changing!

I can help you identify your roadblocks as you move in the direction to become the person you want to be. I am not the typical therapist in that I do not use a cookie cutter approach to treatment. I like to work with my clients in a way that empowers them while challenging their thinking patterns to change the behaviors that are no longer serving them. With over 30 years of experience, I have developed an expertise in substance abuse, depression, bipolar disorder, anxiety, borderline personality disorders and high functioning autism spectrum disorder. I utilize action methods with traditional therapy techniques to help you explore and break through the thought processes and behaviors that are holding you back from being the person you want to be. Through a collaborative approach, I meet you where you are at and assist your growth.

Frequently asked questions

Why filter by Virginia rather than a city like Richmond?

When looking for online therapy, you can see anyone that is credentialed in the state. We want you to find the best fit, therefore, Grow Therapy shows available therapists across Virginia from Norfolk to Roanoke! If you’d rather see someone in-person, you can change the filter from virtual and find a therapist near you in Virginia.

Will my therapist take insurance?

When booking you’ll be asked to verify with your Member ID. However, if you don’t have any of the insurances available you can select cash. Our therapists will have their cost of appointment on their profile. Individual session costs will vary.

How does the Specialty Filter work? Can I find a therapist that focuses on a specific issue?

The specialty filter is optional. You don’t need to check any boxes to see a provider. However, fit is very important when selecting an online therapist. If you have knowledge or experience to recognize what specialties you may need.

What are the "Clients say I'm" badges?

Grow Therapy asks patients about their experience with therapists after they have had a certain number of sessions. After enough responses, we add those characteristics to their profiles to help you find the best online therapists for you. We're still working on collecting this information from all our therapists.

Why use Gender, Age, and Identities filters?

Finding a provider with a similar life experience can be beneficial because it can be easier to establish rapport and potentially be understood quicker and clearer.

What to expect during your first session?

Your first therapy session is for you and your therapist to meet each other and to ask any questions that you have about the counseling process. This is where you can expect your therapist to do the same as they will ask questions to gain insight into your specific situation. In this first session the therapist is doing their part to gather as much information so they can better assess if they are able to meet your therapeutic needs.

Depending upon your provider's specialty, you may also discuss the methods the therapist will use. For additional information on therapy methods, please visit the Grow Therapy Help Center. Some people feel nervous before their first appointment, and that is totally normal! Coming prepared with a list of questions for your therapist may help. Remember, you're taking a brave step by seeking therapy, and it is okay to be nervous as you try something new.
