Dr. Brandee Zettel
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT, LPC
Infidelity, emotional or physical, can be a traumatic betrayal that leaves deep wounds. I provide a structured, compassionate environment where both partners feel heard and supported. My approach includes:
Atonement: Navigating the immediate crisis, establishing transparency, and beginning the process of honest communication.
Attunement: Investigating the factors that led to the breach of trust and learning how to reconnect emotionally and spiritually.
Attachment: Building a "new" marriage on a foundation of deeper understanding, shared values, and reinforced commitment.

26 Years Experience

Virginia Beach and the surrounding Hampton Roads metro area have one of the highest concentrations of active-duty military personnel and veterans in the country, anchored by Naval Station Norfolk — the world's largest naval base — creating sustained demand for therapists who specialize in military trauma, PTSD, and the dynamics of military family life. Therapists experienced with moral injury, deployment-related adjustment, and service-to-civilian transition are well represented, and many practices specifically orient their care toward service members and their families. Sentara Health and Bon Secours provide institutional mental health resources for the region, complemented by a growing private practice community. Virginia Beach's coastal environment and strong community ties give the city a relatively stable baseline, though the psychological weight of military life remains a defining feature of the local therapy landscape.
