Hello! I am a Virginia Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) and National Certified Counselor (NCC) who is dedicated to helping people overcome barriers and reach optimal wellness. I am dedicated to helping those seeking optimal and holistic wellness. I have experience in Community Mental Health, Addictions, Couples Counseling, Behavioral disorders, and Co-occurring disorders. Three words that describe my therapeutic style are compassionate, nonjudgmental, and balanced. My goal is to serve others and make a difference by assisting individuals striving to make it through life’s complicated challenges.
My primary motivation for becoming a therapist is my passion for helping others improve their mental and emotional well-being. It is deeply rewarding to support individuals through their challenges and watch them grow and thrive.
Together, we'll discuss possible approaches to your goals and concerns and establish a plan for working together. This might include setting initial goals and exploring different therapeutic options.
