Rising Sails

If you are looking for grief therapy in Virginia with a licensed therapist who brings genuine clinical depth to every session, you are in the right place. At Rising Sails, I provide grief therapy for adults across Virginia who are still carrying loss long after everyone else has moved on — and wondering why they can’t shake it. Grief therapy in Virginia is available statewide through secure telehealth sessions.

A Licensed Virginia Therapist Who Takes Your Mental Health Seriously

I am Sherri Webster, LCSW, C-SWHC — a licensed clinical social worker and board-approved clinical supervisor in Delaware, Maryland, and New Jersey. My background spans inpatient psychiatric care, community mental health, integrated care, and private practice. I bring that depth to every client I work with.

If you are ready to work with a therapist who will meet you with expertise, warmth, and a clear plan, I would be glad to connect. Schedule a free consultation to get started.


How Online Therapy in Virginia Works with Me

I offer online therapy in Virginia to all residents through secure telehealth sessions.

Online Therapy in Virginia — Available Statewide

Telehealth therapy is available to all Virginia residents. Secure video sessions make it possible to access consistent, high-quality care without the commute, without the waiting room, and without rearranging your entire day.

Many of my clients appreciate the flexibility of online therapy, especially those managing demanding schedules, chronic health conditions, or the kind of grief that makes leaving the house feel like its own obstacle.


Areas of Focus

I work with adults across a range of concerns. My clinical work is most focused on:

Grief

Loss reshapes us. Whether you are grieving a death, a relationship, a version of yourself, or a life you expected to have — therapy offers space to process what you are carrying without being told what your grief should look like or how long it should last.

When Grief Looks Like Anxiety

Grief doesn’t always look like sadness. Sometimes it shows up as persistent worry, overthinking, and the exhaustion of always bracing for something. If you’ve experienced a significant loss and anxiety has become your baseline, what you’re carrying might be grief wearing anxiety’s face.

When Grief Looks Like Depression

Grief can also look like depression — low motivation, numbness, going through the motions without really feeling any of it. If this started after a loss, therapy can help you understand what’s underneath and find your way back.


Who I Work With

I work with adults who are ready to engage in meaningful, goal-oriented therapy. My clients are often people who have been functioning — sometimes quite well on the outside — while carrying something significant on the inside. Many are grieving something — a person, a relationship, a version of their life — and wondering why they still can’t feel like themselves again. Many have tried other support before and are looking for a therapist who will go deeper.


Investment

Rising Sails is a private pay practice. Private pay clients value the privacy, flexibility, and control that comes with fee-for-service care — with no insurance company involved in your treatment decisions.

I am happy to provide a superbill upon request, which you can submit to your insurance provider for potential reimbursement through your out-of-network benefits. Many clients are surprised to find they have out-of-network coverage that offsets a meaningful portion of the cost.

Individual therapy is $175 per session. Please visit the FAQ page for more information or reach out directly.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do you offer online therapy throughout Virginia? Yes. Online therapy in Virginia is available to all residents through secure video sessions. I am licensed in Virginia and see telehealth clients statewide.

Do you take insurance? Rising Sails is a private pay practice. I do not bill insurance directly. However, I am happy to provide a superbill upon request, which you can submit to your insurance carrier for potential reimbursement through your out-of-network benefits. Many clients find that private pay offers greater privacy, flexibility, and control over their care.

What is a superbill? A superbill is an itemized receipt that includes the clinical codes your insurance company needs to process a reimbursement request. After each session, I can provide one upon request. Whether your plan reimburses you depends on your individual out-of-network benefits — I recommend calling your insurance provider to ask about your coverage before we begin.

Do you offer a free consultation? Yes. I offer a free 15-minute phone or video consultation so you can ask questions and decide whether we are a good fit before committing to a session. Schedule your free consultation here.

Do you see clients in person or only online? I offer online therapy to all Virginia residents via telehealth. I do not have an in-person office in Virginia.

What areas of Virginia do you serve? I serve all of Virginia via telehealth — including Richmond, Virginia Beach, Norfolk, Arlington, Alexandria, Roanoke, Charlottesville, Chesapeake, and surrounding communities.
