Therapists in Virginia

Feeling burnt out? Tired of the same stress management techniques just not working? You're not alone. Chronic stress can impact your physical health, leading to issues like sleep problems, headaches, and even high blood pressure. Maybe your current coping mechanisms stem from past experiences, and it's time to break that cycle. Maybe ADHD symptoms are leading to stress, lets work together to create data driven changes to manage ADHD. Let's work together to replace reactive stress responses. Develop emotional intelligence to navigate challenging situations with grace, fostering stronger relationships and reducing self-doubt.

Sometimes it is difficult to navigate life and the curve-balls that it throws at us! Having to get through the day and struggling with anxiety or feelings of depression are just a few. Maybe you endured a traumatic event and it's been causing you trauma and distress. Perhaps you have a child that has been diagnosed with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) or Attention Deficit hypo/hyperactive Disorder? If so, your child may be having difficulty with paying attention, controlling emotions, communication or social interactions. I'd love to help build upon your strengths and help you further succeed in this world that we are navigating!

As a Health Psychologist I focus on Health and Wellness in many ways. I enjoy helping people with Anxiety Due to a Medical Condition, Adult ADHD, Bariatric Pre & Post Surgical Testing and Counseling, and Rehabilitation Supportive Counseling (post-surgical or chronic illness). These areas might seem very different, but they are not. The common thread is that these areas focus on daily living. If we can't focus, due to worry, adhd, anxiety, recovery, or pain, then it is hard to fully live life. I enjoy helping people be the best version of themselves, no matter what they are going through.

I have worked in diverse settings, such as Johns Hopkins Methadone/Suboxone program and for an AZ Native Tribal Nation. I am experienced in diverse treatment modalities, including DBT (couples and family) dual-diagnosis treatment, Imago and in Imago/communication focused couples therapy, and multi-systemic or strategic family therapy.

In 2007, I started a small, quality and evidence based therapeutic, neuro and psychological clinic operating in a patient-friendly environment. I wanted a CBT based yet relaxed and pioneering environment for my clients to promote the emotional, mental, spiritual, relational and academic/professional well-being without feeling stigmatized.

I seek to help uncover the underlying conflicts and often unconscious roots of psychological problems. I work with you to develop insight into what underlies your anxiety or depression and to make room for growth and change. When a problem, like ADHD, requires more "hands on" help, I can help tease out what can be treated through psychotherapy, and what might need more direct intervention and even coaching. I provide parenting support and couples counseling. I also provide psychological testing, including ADHD and AAP testing for school aged children.
