Mary Jo Davis, LCSW — Therapist in Virginia

Hi there, I'm Mary Jo!

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, who enjoys spending time with family and friends. For the past 20 years, I have provided administrative oversight to school social workers in a large school division and have worked in my private practice. My goal is to support the clients I work with to find joy and mental health wellness in their lives.

My focus

I am passionate about supporting individuals' and families' mental wellness by assisting adolescents and families with finding solutions to improve their relationships and mood, and find more happiness in their lives. I specialize in supporting adolescents find solutions for the next steps toward college and career success and managing emotions.

My approach

I work with clients using Dialectical Behavior Therapy, Solution-Focused therapy, and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy. These clinical modalities support you in developing practical skills and strategies to manage emotions, improve relationships, and create meaningful change in your life.

My communication style

Between therapy sessions, I respond to emails and provide ongoing resources and support. I create a warm, collaborative environment where you feel heard and empowered to work toward your goals.

My journey to mental healthcare

I transitioned from administrative oversight in school settings to private practice, where I focus on helping clients achieve mental wellness. My experience working with adolescents and families has deepened my commitment to supporting individuals through life's challenges.

My goals for you

In our counseling sessions, we will focus on finding your goals for more holistic mental health, healthier relationships, and solutions for having peace and happiness in your life.

Our first session

During the first session, I will assist you with coming up with your goals that will help you find solutions for what brought you into counseling services. We will define what progress monitoring toward your goals looks like, as well as what it will look like to end our work together.
