I went to Dr. Dabney a depressed, hopeless human being. Therapy with this great doctor was nothing less than a miracle for me. I have been to several psychiatrists through out my life and have never really had any notable breakthroughs or relief from the pain I had been suffering since childhood, but when I found Dr. Dabney everything changed. Yes, she is a phenomenal doctor, but it goes much deeper than that, she has the amazing gift of intuition and the soul of a healer. She went above and beyond and sessions with her always contained a revelation for me, it was the first time I felt hope. I actually learned techniques and new thought patterns that empowered me, with her intuitive nature, she knew exactly how to guide me through all the ups and downs of self discovery and healing. I am now 52 years old and after a lifetime of dysfunction, depression and pain, I now feel liberated and free of all the baggage I had stored up through the years. Thanks to Dr. Dabney and her caring so much about me, I can live the second half of my life feeling something I've never felt before...PURE JOY! If your considering seeing this doctor, look no further, I had to go through many drs. until I found Dr. Dabney. Save yourself time and grief and just go see her. read more

Dr. Dabney was recommended to me by Dr. Jerome Blackman. He also recommended some psychotherapists. Big mistake. Blackman is qualified, but the people he recommends are useless. Furthermore, these recommended psychoanalytic psychotherapists are incapable of providing a competent statement for patients. They are unfamiliar with current medial billing code requirements, and one in particular did not know the ICD-10 codes were effective in October 2015. She constantly screwed up the ICD and DSM codes on the statement. The format of her statements was unprofessional, akin to something a kid in first grade would produce and they were rejected by my HSA account. She did not know what an NPI number was and refused to provide her license number (it can be looked up here: https://dhp.virginiainteractive.org/Lookup/Index If you want a paid 'parent' to be a sympathetic shoulder, these folks are great. If you want professional help, go elsewhere. At $400/hour for Dabney and $160/hour for another associate, it is a huge waste of money. Buy shoes instead, much more useful, helpful and 'therapeutic'. read more

Dr. Dabney used to be a counselor on BetterHelp. It's inappropriate and unethical to diagnosis someone through therapy online. Though my contact with her was through text only, she told me a had a personality disorder and treated me for it at a very vulnerable time in my life. It did considerable damage to my view of myself. She refused to tell me what personality disorder I had and why she thought so. This only deepened a vague insecurity that something was wrong with me as all these years I had no idea I was autistic, but I long knew something was different about me. I have autism and was recently diagnosed. She was extremely forceful, overbearing, manipulative and insisted I had trauma I did not have. Because she never saw me or even heard my voice she had no way of seeing the impairments I have and getting to an accurate diagnosis. read more

In therapy with Dr. Dabney I can tell you there's consistency, honesty, and simplicity to her approach of digging for the truths individual to a patient. She helped me to articulate my exact issues/problems and in a very nonjudgmental way. She helped me think through my own problems and issues by helping me to realize their meaning and impact on my life... about my thinking patterns and how I view and participate in the world.. and how to become independent in thinking and living so that I can support myself and think through my problems on my own. She is consistent in returning phone calls. She is a caring, intelligent, and thoughtful doctor and she basically saved my mental health. I would recommend her to anyone struggling with their emotions. read more

I'm big into wellness in general so had to refuse my doc's offer of a medication when I went thru my divorce last year. What I really needed was to figure out what the hell went wrong! I was not going to go through that mess again if I could help it. Needless to say it was a dark time and I found Dr D on google. She's been a guide, and a source of comfort ever since. She made me aware of some things I don't think I ever would have seen that I think will keep me from making the same mistakes again. She even gave me her cell number so I could call her anytime which I don't think is the norm. Her staff is also very kind and helpful with the scheduling etc. So, don't be afraid of therapy, my life has done a 180. read more
