I specialize in working with high-functioning professionals who are succeeding by most external measures, yet privately feel overwhelmed, depleted, or disconnected from what matters most. Many of my clients work in demanding fields where performance expectations are high and vulnerability feels costly. Common concerns include chronic stress and burnout, high-functioning anxiety, depression, relationship strain, and navigating significant personal or professional transitions. My background working in corporate and government environments gives me firsthand familiarity with the pressures professionals in the DC-Virginia corridor face.
My training is grounded in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and I integrate solution-focused strategies, mindfulness, and psychoeducation to help clients recognize patterns, develop practical coping tools, and make sustainable change. I hold a Ph.D. and M.A. from the Illinois Institute of Technology, Institute for Psychology.
I offer both in-person sessions at my Alexandria office and telehealth appointments for clients across DC & Virginia. My approach is collaborative, evidence-based, and tailored to your specific values, needs, and goals. I welcome you to reach out by email to inquire about a consultation.
