William ‘Don’ Wood, LPC, helps adults and seniors across Virginia build stability, resilience, and meaningful change through compassionate, evidence-based mental health care. At LifeStance Health, he provides individual, couples and family therapy for people navigating anxiety, depression, and other related conditions.
